maybe they meant spec c but I don't know of anyone locally that was able to obtain a spec c engine. those are pretty hard to come by

I don't even think it's a built 2.5 or even has RA gears in it... I'm thinking external body styling and stickers

that is always a possibility but don't try to sell something you don't have or put a picture there so that we can give you more credit for your for sale title

Although judging by his poor grammar and spelling, I don't see how he could have a job high paying enough for a built engine and tranny

Could be one of those send me some money now and I don't have the car in the islands, I can ship it kind of scams. The area code isn't Hawaii.
But then again, it could be a EJ207 twin scroll spec c motor from the mainland we don't know about. lol

there supposedly only one version 8 engine on the island and it's supposed to be the guy in Hawaii Kai. It's also not a spec c engine. But no one has seen the engine nor the car. He also sold it too I think but it wasn't an 06, it was a bugeye
I would assume it'd be the guy that just got here with the 2.7 kit blah blah blah. But when that guy made a thread here he listed everything nicely. But it does show a outta state number so yea. Who knows.

eh...
do what I did...my second car is a beat up old 95 4-runner...it's a nice beach car that I don't have to worry about...I finally get to park close to the entrance at foodland without worrying about door dings
I too came across this on craigslist. Was surprised that he did not have any pictures. So i e-mailed him and asked for pictures and nothing, I also called him and tired to set up a time and place where I could look at the car he said he would call me, he hasnt called me back to give a time. Guys name is lance, thats as far as I got on the phantom rex.
