Will be posted up soon.  In the mean time the board was dead today, so I thought I would build suspense.

It is not yet at the house.  Supposed to pick it up @ 12:00 tomorrow.  Wash it real quick, then snap a few pictures.

You get the one we talked about last? Killer deal IMO if so.

Hay Yummi

This the black one with the Stinger IGN?

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

The little two seat black car with the four banger with turbo.

Do you hit the desert as well as the dunes?


I've seen the car....  Lets get on with the good stuff.  ;)  Somehow from the shooting pool pics I didn't imagine Mrs Yummi as being nearly so stacked.  Very nice picture!

My old car:

Beam (Well, trailing arm), 2.0 turbo, coil overs with res. 14" / 16"  Had some issues. 

What I gain -

1.  "A" (OK "J") Arm,
2.  front brakes with bias control,
3.  power steering
4.  2.5 turbo
5.  bypass shocks
6.  20" f / 18" r


Likely has issues - don't they all? 

Uprights are not powder coated as he broke the last set and replaced with bigger ones - 1" ball joints and 2" spindles with front brakes. 

Here is his list of car - as found on his ad.
Quote
-Outfront 2.5L 300HP Subaru
-Az Transaxle built 091 (Weddle)
-6 x 2.5 Kings
-2" Gear One Hollow spindles up front
-Gear one 4 piston rear
-Newly restrung Master Crafts with new 3" belts
-Intercom
-Power Steering
-Chrome arms
-3 Hella 4000
-New dash and intercooler scoop this season.


Needs radio and some repaint of raw panels that were just completed, etc.  After the sale of my old car, this ends up being a modest upgrade total out of pocket excluding paint on the panels.  Not a bad deal for the list of stuff I upgraded to.  Was never going to fit the round peg in the square hole on my old car.  Easier to sell and change.

Link to review of builder, etc - guy out of Santee - JP Designs.  Has a few cars out.

Nice car Yummi

You did good.  I likey the 2" hollow spindles. Dose it have all the stock subi wiring on it or is it and after market ignition? What is the max boost? STI block closed deck or open deck? BOV?

Thanks,

Nope, upgraded wiring and injectors.  On the block I do not know.  It was new from out front  - confirmed with john.  10# boost - yes on BOV.   Runs a smaller turbo than a normal 2.5 - has the turbo the size used for 2.0 - he blew up the original 2.0 and kept the turbo, etc.  Essentially a new 2.5 long block.   So, spools very quickly and has no lag to speak of.  Should suit my style quite nicely that way. 

Uses a Electromotive TEC3 CPU came with upgraded coil packs (Tech 3 direct fire units), harness, all GM sensors in leiu of subaru sensors, MAP, Knock, etc - have the whole book on it all.

So, if it ever needs a new motor, that will be a hassle - but, just bring a check book would be my guess?
