History:
Car was imported in approx 2003 and I purchased the car in 2006. Car has covered approximately 75k miles. Oils have been changed religiously every 3 trackdays with Silkolene pro S. The engine suffered head gasket failure in November 2008 and was replaced with a rebuilt engine using forged internals. This engine has been thoroughly tested including a trackday. There is documentary evidence and photos of the work carried out, no expense spared. The engine rebuild included the following parts:
Cometic uprated head gaskets
Wossner Pistons and STI Forged Rods and ARP bolts
ARP Head Stud conversion
Uprated water pump, Thermostat and API Oil Pump. Uprated metal cam pulleys.
New Cambelt, idlers and pulleys
STI V4 heads reshimmed.
New gaskets throughout
New clutch (Exedy Race Spec Organic)

There is a massive file of paperwork and every receipt for the vehicle, as well as a photo archive.

Car has this week received diff and gearbox oil changed, brake and clutch fluid changed.

Approx 24 wheels and tyres including gravel, tarmac and road tyres, cut slicks and full race slicks in 16” and 17”

HID headlight conversion with later model headlamp units
Mocal 13 row oil cooler and sandwich plate
Spare miscellaneous gaskets and 2 big boxes of engine spares

General Info

It is a fantastic track car and has been extensively developed. It is fully road legal and comes with tax and MOT. Insurance is under £400 with Competition Car Insurance on a limited mileage policy, fully comp.

Those are Maxsport RB3's in 205 55 16 and they just fit under the arches, as you can see - I spent ages sourcing good 16" offroad tyres for the wheels that fit over 4-pots. Only other option was to fit 2 pots for the offroad events i do.

Thanks mate. The car is a cracker, but seeing as it is worth about 30% more as spares, mainly due to the top notch bits on it, i may well be breaking her.

A terrible thing to do to my pride and joy to be honest when she is in perfect condition and really running well, but I have to move on.

The purchase of a race car this week means that needs must, and she has to go, one way or another, to fund a seasons racing.
