My man, you did a great job at addressing why you have no need to upgrade all the parts I listed. You failed to address the issue I brought up though: Your car does not have the significant expensive parts to justify your RIDICULOUS $45k price tag. The thing is a pretty Evo RS, that's it. Not a FORTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLAR BEAST.
If you want to see something worth 45 grand, look at Slickd's 670 whp Evo or Nikolov09's Evo. Both of these are also streetable. And that's another thing, you act like having a Stage X head, Stage X block, 35R, shep tranny, quaife lsd, etc is not streetable. I don't get that.
So again, if you look at the market, you'll realize your price is whack.

Stock internals, stock head, stock tranny, stock T-Case, Stock TURBO, Stock ECU, and no dynosheet. Also this thing must be ridiculously heavy to be called a "Time Attack" prepped Evo. It looks like most of your "29k invested" was in exterior and engine dress up mods.
And you want 45 grand? My man, look at the market and adjust your price accordingly.

I dunno? Maybe I'm thinking that people will appreciate a car that wasn't modded like it ran on the drag strip every night. More power does not correlate to more money. Low miles and pristine condition will net the most. My car wasn't meant to appeal to buyers who need crazy power. Anybody can slap on a turbo kit and call it a day, but I took the road less traveled by and did a bunch of nice JDM mods while bumping the output of the stock-like turbo (it's a notch above a stock turbo in flow rate due to the honed hot side). Aby @ WOT did all the work to make all the pieces on this car flow that much better to accentuate the stock turbo. Not many have broken the 400awhp barrier on the stocker so I'm glad to say I'm close.

I guess I should. I always wondered what it would put down in a more ideal situation, but I guess I'm just done with the car and want somebody to take it off my hands at this point.

you do realize when you buy parts and put them on a car they lose 70% of their value after being used right? If this thing had a HTA35r on it I might open my eyes, but this is more show than go and no one that drive's a evo is interested in that unless your a ricer. gl with the sale though.

The car does have some quality parts man, but i have seen built block, head, tranny and t case, 35r street driven cars makin 550 600 whp go for 35 grand. A car thats faster in the straights will be faster around the track so tech that 35r car might be faster then your car and 10 grand cheaper. Your car is very nice but if you want to sell it your gonna have to forget about your labor and come down on the price just my 2 cents

Everybody is entitled to their opinion! I personally like the banners since it keeps the sun out of the car since I chose to not use tint. The fogs are awesome! It's like those holes were meant just for them. I don't see how they cool the IC pipes that much so might as well not put it to waste.
Price reduced to $38k! Hope some of you guys had a chance to check it out MOD. It really had to be seen in person.
