Aloha,

Testing waters for my broken 2002 WRX. Before I decide on parting out, I want to test waters on the car 'as-is'. It idles, but only on 3 cylinders. The body has 140K miles, the broken engine 10K miles. It likely has a heads issue causing coolant system to pressurize and run on 3 cylinders. I tried changing the head gaskets already. It could be as simple as having the heads resurfaced, could be a crack in the block. I don't know and don't care to fix it. The car made 355 WHP at rads this year and was tuned by PDX. You can try to fix it, use it for parts, part it out, make paperweights, use parts as gifts, turn around and sell it for more, have sex in it, I don't care.

Mods: EJ257 SB, EJ205 heads, Helix 264 cams and upgraded valve springs, TD06 20G 8cm hotside, CSS FMIC, Perrin lightweight crank pulley, Perrin rad hoses, HKS SSQV BOV, UTEC engine management with map selector and FFS, OpenSource engine management, Cobb SRI, Samco Turbo inlet, Perrin AfterMAF hose, DW 750cc injectors, Walbro FP, Kartboy Short Shifter, Whiteline sways/endlinks, Sti replica Strut bars, In-dash DVD player, TXS Tuner wideband A/F gauge, prosport boost and oil pressure gauges, TGV deletes, GT Spec UEL headers/UP + wrap, Cobb DP, Borla Hush CBE, 18" gram lights 5x100, H tech lowering springs, Viper alarm with remote start, hood dampers, custom 12" sub box with MTX sub + amp, Stainless Steel brakelines, TXS radiator plate cover, Rally Armor mud flaps, slotted front brake rotors, extra exhaust and misc gaskets BNIB, NGK one step colder plugs, STi upgraded motor mounts, Beatrush skid plate, Speedmonkey Turbo Heat Shield, and whatever else I can think of later.

I've owned this car a little more than 4 years and loved it. It's been a fun project, it's just time for me to move on. Shoot me an offer, PM me an offer, facebook me an offer, text me an offer, mail me an offer, email me an offer, smoke signal me an offer, or just make me an offer. I really don't want to bother parting it out. Hopefully someone just wants everything. Here's a picture, I can add more later. It has current registration and safety check.




PS-Thanks for the pictures Ryan.

Aloha,
John

PM sent

 

damn John sad to see you are letting this go. but I can understand the frustration. don't forget me if you decide to part out. hopefully I have 1st dibs on what i pm'd you about.

 

Dude. Leave it alone for a year. Let it chill. Revisit it. Don't give up on it. Sad to see another psm bugeye bite the dust. That being said, if you end up parting out I got dibs on the front bumper, grille, hood, and fenders. May the car rest in pieces.

 

I want it. Pm sent.

Let me know what it's gonna take.

 

Will let you know if I decide to partout.

Yea you got first dibs on that if I go with the partout route.

Ideally, I'd like to do that, but that's not really practical for me right now. I'll letcha know if I partout.

Got your PM, I'll give you a call later today.

 

why do i get the feeling you are getting a BMW or Lexus IS350 next John?

 

I think im gonna miss your FS ads. Hopefully you part it out so we can have more comedic gold on the HIIC chapter.

 

BTW...if i get it, I am so planning on having sex in it, then parting out only the interior.

buyer: "what are those stains everywhere?" me: "I used this car for work, I'm an elmers glue delivery guy"

 

Haha very funny

 

I'll let you know if it has been used for sex before after you sign the title.

 

Damn John sorry to hear bout ur car...so what Chad u gonna fix it and sell it again? I want some parts...lol!

 

The car is now sold. Talk to Chad about parting it out. Thanks for all the interest.

John
