$27000 Including a completely refreshed motor: re-coat pistons, new rings, new bearings, new timing belt & tensioner, new clutch plus the following performance upgrades: Ported heads & Pauter Rods.

The schedule I working to: Pull motor by 5/2/2010, Deliver it to Ron on 5/7 tear down and inspect, Ron to rebuild motor (5wks), re-install motor June mid.

I will photo and video document the refresh process.

I am considering selling my 2005 STi (not interested in trade or part out)

This car has been my project for the past 5 years, I purchased it new in 05.

Currently, it produces 378 AWHP on 93 octane (12.26 @ 114.2 in the ¼ mile) and 483 AWHP on race fuel (11.44 @ 123.6)

This past summer on a couple of road trips, I was able to get 29.72 MPG during easy driving.

Offer details:

Asking price: $27000

I have driven this car as my “summertime” daily driver. It has NEVER been driven in the snow or inclement weather.

The vehicle has 54000 miles on it. The engine (RAW/Axis) was built 20000 miles ago.

All modifications (exception of the engine rebuild) were performed by me with help from two of my sons.

I am a perfectionist… looking at the engine bay, you will struggle to tell the engine was ever pulled. I even modified the stock turbo heat shield to mount over the FP Red.

On a scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being brand new, I rate the condition of this vehicle as 8.5. It has a few light scratches in a couple of places on the exterior and the interior is near perfect.

Modifications include:

Instrumentation: Prosport EGT, Autometer boost, Omori oil pressure, Innovate XD-1 wide band.

Performance: KS TECH 83mm CAI, APS Turbo inlet, FP Red turbo (8cm housing), Hallman MBC, APS DR 725 FMIC, Walbro 255L fuel pump, Deatschwerks 850cc injectors, Perrin equal length header, Ultimate Racing gated up-pipe (Tial 38mm 1.0 bar wastegate) Megan 3” cat-less turboback, Allstar Performance Catch Can, ACT 6 puck sprung clutch.

Regarding tuning… I tune it myself with significant help from: Shawn (Overdose), Ed at EQ Tuning, Jeff (crystal_Imprezav), John @ TDC and Tim (WolfPlayer). All software (StreetTUNER, RomRaider, ECU Flash), maps and tuning advice/help from me would be included in the sale.
