I'm going up to look at a car tomorrow and I was trying to figure out what this blue object near the charcoal canister was, figured maybe someone else has seen it before and would know what it is. I don't really want to drive for 3.5 hours to go check it out and not know what the hell it is.

 

blow off valve

 

****, I feel dumber than a plumber in med school. But to my defense, I was unsure where a bov would go in a stock intercooler system (being a 3-na rx7 owner).

 

I was going to say flux capacitor but bov makes more sense.

 

Don't believe them. It's what holds the turn signal blinker fluid.

 

lol

 

its R2D2's cousin, Rolf

 

Okay well now that we have established R2D2's cousin is a bov, who knows what kind it is? The seller is the owners brother and doesn't know much about the mods...

here's the set of pics I got, he want's 4k obo. I'm thinking I'll offer 2.5k?

That is the bugger in question. Oh and all emissions, AC, and cruise control removed. Unrestricted exhaust, and stock wastegate....

 

why did they bother showing the tread depth lol. those tires are absolute cracked ****. haha
nice car though.
i say buy it if the motor is good

 

i want to see the receipt, but he said the engine was rebuilt by the previous owner.

 

That car is really clean. It looks pretty stock though, besides the seats and bov. Not really sure why some of the hoses are yellow but they look like their just connected to stock stuff (this is also coming from a highly un-mechanical person, so I could be wrong). If the motor is in good shape it wouldn't surprise to see the car go for at least $3.5k

 

and the series 5 exterior mix n match it's got going on.

 

S5 front bumper on a 10AE

 

Blue is usually a Turbosmart or TurboXS color.

 

I do happen to still have a good s4 bumper and s4 tails laying around

 

its it actually a 10AE or just a repaint, engine bay isn't the right color for a real AE...

 

I lol'd a bit too

 

mmmm.. those seats look cool

 

Craving turbocharged, eh Daulton?... Heh'

Doesn't look too bad. With a little bit of work you can get it looking and performing well. How does it run?

 

Looks pretty nice overall! I'd be curious to know how many miles are on the new engine. Seems like what's been done is not substantial and has been tastefully done. Depending on how many miles are on the engine, $4k may well be fair. $2.5k is a steal unless the engine's been blown since the rebuild
