Anyone interested. Running quick and strong. Putting 312 @12psi to the ground. Countless hours and $$ put in. Sucks

Just the time involved with my family life vs my shop is so tight..I love the car and have had it since 95. The thing is a blast to drive and all but if I sold it, I could use that money to buy my kids new Mx bikes and then buy something newer next year. It kills me to think of all of the time and effort/money put into it by everyone, but I don't know. I'll post the latest pix with the final detailed exterior finish..looks awesome again!

You could hardly put a price on it.
There are thousands of hours and $$$$ into it. Everything is custom. Everything has been built to a extremely high standard put upon it by Adam and myself.

If he dosent get $10k out of it, its not worth selling.

So I'm selling it for reals now. Hate to see it go, but other things are a bit more important right now.
1000's of man hours invested, along with dollars! Surely over 15K in resto work and modifications, not including labor. First $7500 gets it.
New Pineapple motor
Full Haltech standalone
Stage 3 BNR turbo
Full custom exhuast
Full Tein coilovers
New 17" Weds wheels and Advan R032 R compounds
Custom splitter, hood and scoop
Mazdaspeed seats with custom fabricated brackets so you sit low
Momo wheel and shift
Full guage pods with temp, oil, fuel, batt, EGT, boost
new tint
custom cage that goes down doors
Upgraded fuel and air
Full V mount Greddy intercooler and Fluidyne rad
elec fan
custom splitter for rad to intercooler
There's so much more.
Respond if you like or call me on my cell

312 at 12psi with a large s.p.? Seems a little low with the Stage 3 BNR. Is it tuned pretty conservatively? Either way bump for a great 2nd gen at a good price!
