06 obp sti Fully built but still needs finishing

STI is still in california waiting to be shipped out here. Im semi over it since its in california and im out here surrounded by 1000+whp gallardos. The suby is just not on my mind right now. Its got 105k ish miles on it. Built motor with about 2-3 miles on it among a bunch of parts on it that are fairly new. Got a full custom build on it and everything is pretty much all handbuilt and not bought. Here is the photobucket link with tons of pics. Going over everything in the car would take a long post. But if your seriously interested i can go over it with you. heres the link-

Would like $18k ish for it

You honestly expect money for a car you didn't list a single mod for?

There's tons of stuff done to the car. If someone is interested after looking at the pics I can go into detail but I'm not listing everything single item or part because there's a lot. So to answer your lame question yes . Most of the people on here, this car is not for them as everything is one-off custom and nothing can be bought from your average shop.

There is quite a bit of money in fittings on that thing. But the engine bay is very clean, you actually have to look at the cat for awhile to actually see everything. Lots of subtle things are done that you don't see right away that make for a clean setup.

Pictures speak louder than words. It's pretty obvious the OP has some serious time and money invested. That v mount gives me a chubby.

That's impressive work. I'm just pointing out he's not going to get any very many bites if you make buyers do the work on finding out what's done to the car. The pictures don't show a lot honestly. They only tell part of the story, and even then the details aren't obvious.

I wouldn't get many bites anyways with details. Like I said before this car isn't for the majority of people. The people that it does appeal too will want to talk about the car and not read tons of details.

And I'm not in a huge rush to sell or need to sell. Just bored and if someone is interested cool, if not cool.

+1. I can see where OP is coming from.
1) not in a rush to sell
2) mods and work done can be geared to the more "intermediate scoob owner"
3) If hes surrounded by Lambos....

i dont deny a fully detailed thread would get more info. to each his own

Bump....


What needs finishing is adding the ewg portion to the inconel up pipe. Running lines to turbo. Mounting radiator fan and electrical to new fan. Minor painting with some chassis paint in the front where I cut and added some stuff. A coolant overflow can needs to be made. Other then that basically everything is on there and plumbed and ready to go.

You'd probably have an easier time selling the car in TX. Cali smog is what's keeping the locals from being interested. Its a sick build for an awesome price.
