Sorry, i also forgot to post something important, I'm from Newcastle N.S.W
and i also forgot to add some very important information

This is a regretful sale as I am running out of time to do all that I wanted to with this car, need something a little bigger as a baby seat needs to be fitted.
This is a fun weekend car and a good fun daily driver and is a very fast car, runs 15 pounds of boost and the motor capable of doing 11,000 RPM, I have spent $30,000 on this car and have all the paper work to show, there is a minor ding in the bonnet from a woman who drove off and left it, I have a spare bonnet and lots of other bits and pieces that will come with it,  apart from that its a beautiful, well looked after car

Thanks, Leigh

Got any other choice? You know what they always say about wishing you had kept the car and done things differently? It's a nice looking car and would tempt me big time if I was closer.

Hey Leigh,

That's  one nice ride you've put together there.
Over your life many cars will come and go, but you only get one family.
Best of luck with your sale.
Cheers

Sorry to see you have to sell up Leigh it looks like a great car and credit to you for building it.

Whats got me curious though is the 15psi & 11,000rpm part, i take it that your not running the stock turbo anymore and that cams have been fitted to be able to rev it out that high???  Are you still running the stock 20 box and what clutch are you using???

Would be interesting to see a movie of the tacho revving to 11,000 rpm that would be a buzz and if it does that car is a steal at 13k because it would have cost double that on the donk to push that kind of spins man I wish I was cashed up.

Nice job! Very, very close to my dream FC. If I wasn't days away from giving birth myself, my husband would be on a plane with cash in hand! Good Luck with the sale and baby. If you haven't sold it in a month, hubby will be visiting...

Tried his number a couple of times and no answer, didn't want to be pushy given the new addition to the family coming Wink

G'day there, I went and had a look at this car. It needed a fair bit of work, the photos make it look alot better than it is. Saying that, it is rego'd and engineered. The taco did read 11,000 rpm when you flattened it, it also covered the floor with a layer of thick black soot. He seemed like a nice guy on the phone and in person, but omission of the truth is not a mitagating circumstance for me. I was very keen, had the cash in my pocket but decided to walk away, obviously it would be your decision in the end. Good luck with it all. FC Mikey

Hello its Andrew from Adelaide, still waiting for my deposit of $250.00 that i paid you subject to the outcome of inspection from Motor Body in NSW, this resulted in the need for Mechanical Engineer to inspect the car again as the differential had been replaced since 1st report.  Obviously you did not sell it to somebody else as you informed me! I will be taking legal action to retrieve the money through the SA courts, yes the photos shown are old and the car is alittle bit more used than it looks.
