Possibly Selling my ESC w/Aux charger and batteries.

Im thinking about selling my 1.5 ESC kit complete w/AUX charger - not totally sure yet, but I found a BRZ with a Vortech SC already installed and waiting to carfax it. I did enjoy the extra power from Vortech, but thats not the only selling point.
I will probably list my 1.5 ESC kit w/batteries and AUX charger for sale soon. It all works flawlessly and beautifully. The kit is 1.5 years old. I have my car in the shop now and will take pics and post for sale if I decide to buy the BRZ. Just a heads up.
I'm going to sell the FR-S too once I decide on the BRZ. This just a heads up to any that are about to give up on waiting for this kit. I like the instant throttle response with the ESC tune and I have to say I like it better in that department than the Vortech SC.
I may get back in the FR-S and forget about this
PM me if any one is interested!

718 pages. 10,040 posts. I've read each and every one. I have to say, the progress Robftss and the various testers have made is quite impressive. Many kudos to Rob, and everyone, who've put in the effort to prove this as a viable concept. Kudos also to the many posters in this thread who exemplify the spirit of car enthusiasts everywhere. Enthusiasts who like nothing more than enjoying their cars to the fullest, and modifying them for better looks and/or performance. Enthusiasts who've also grown into a tight knit community, interested only in helping everyone who is looking at electric supercharging to understand this project and get their own cars "charged up" with new technology. Well done. Very well done indeed.

I actually discovered this through Wild Weasel's post over on the j-body forums, and followed his link here to see the entire saga unfold. I'm glad I did. This thread is epic in both scope and story. Not just in size of the thread or the story of the Phantom, but of the coming together of the members posting here who've become a family. Very inspiring. Very enlightening.

Seeing as I'm a Pontiac owner, I won't intrude here much. But- as soon as I gather enough funds, I'll probably buy a used Phantom and adapt it to my Sunfire. It does exactly what I want in terms of low buck performance, and I'll be proud to call myself an owner- because from what I've seen here, you Phantom guys rock.

well it certainly means there is demand ill tell you that!
I can understand. I was like a day late on that PM. I failed to look at the convo last night. Ill start paying more attention to the thread since I decided to try to go the used route whilst I wait. Ill go ahead and get the oft header and tab to at least get those gains. Get a little more zip to tide me over.

That's what I asked to do over two years ago to my car and I got rejected even though i explained my auto electrical and mechanical skills. I thought money was money. And now that i am driving an 86 i can't get a Phantom because I'm RHD. Been trying to get one second hand but the local market for that is really high as expected. So i don't blame the sellers.
I just don't want your hopes to be unnecessarily high.

If i can't get it by the years end I'm eying full time FI. Friends has a blown 86 and it's amazeballs!

Still for sale, just a long waiting list. Worth the wait. The smiles per dollar are out of this world.
