2003 VIII w/ volks and basic mods $16k

New price: $15,500

Well maintained, one owner, adult driven vehicle. The car is in excellent mechanical condition but does have a few dings and scrapes from road debris. The interior is in great shape with the only wear being on the driver's seat. The car has never had any sort of body work done and has been kept garaged, clean and waxed throughout its life. I have the original Enkei wheels with Toyo Proxes 4 as my "winter" tires currently on the car. I also have a set of Volks CE28s with bald KDWs as well (my "summer" tires) included with the car.

The car has the following upgrades: Full Buschur Racing 3" exhaust with Magnaflow muffler (and I have both the test pipe and the high-flow cat), HKS 272/272 cams, Fidanza cam gears, Nissei mini-battery, upper and lower intercooler pipes, 10.5 hotside (OEM turbo), Hawk HPS brake pads, Forge BOV, stainless steel brake lines, Innovate Wideband sensor, Omori Boost gauge, JDM map sensor, and a fairly conservative custom tune.

The car is very docile for daily driving but can get up and go when needed. Despite the modifications the car has never been abused or launched. The best indication I can give for that is that is still has the stock clutch at nearly 54k miles. The stock brake pads were fine until about 40k and the original rotors are still in great shape. I do my own routine maintenance (oil, transmission fluid, etc) but the other work has all been done by Dyno4mance. The last time it was on the dyno was in 2006 and it put down 317 AWHP on a rather stingy DynoDynamics dyno.

EDIT: The car is located in Huntsville, AL (This is north east Alabama.) See below for pictures of the CE28s. Murphy is out to get me and tonight when I went out to run the car for a bit the HVAC is sticking pretty bad. It has always been stiff (like many of the '03s) but it wasn't this sticky. So, I fixed up the knob so it grips better but I figured I should mention it so any of the folks who have already asked about the car would know. Since I'm not sure I'll be able to put the upgraded arm on it any time soon, I'll just drop the price a bit.

EDIT #2: I forgot the cam gears in the mod list. They're under the cam cover and haven't been touched since they went on.

any pics of the volk wheels? where is the car located?

The car is in Huntsville, AL. I'll try to get some new pictures of the wheels today, but here's an old one with the wheels on the car.

Here are pictures of the wheels. They're in great shape with no curb rash. The only real problem with them is that one of the center caps is cracked. You can kind of see it in the fourth picture.

man, this is a great car for the price! Wish I could sell my vette. This would be my next car. Oh well, GLWS man

juyanith · Nov 10, 2009, 05:25 AM

What kind of vette? C6? I've been considering one as a fun car after I get the evo sold.

juyanith · Nov 11, 2009, 05:20 AM

Bump for a Wednesday morning.

DannyGSX · Nov 12, 2009, 03:10 PM

juyanith · Nov 16, 2009, 10:59 AM

I've got an offer on the table, but I want to keep the thread alive in case the deal falls through.

juyanith · Nov 19, 2009, 05:09 PM

Okay, the buyer has backed out. I'm open to offers again.

jesterEVO · Nov 19, 2009, 08:16 PM

can you do 14500?

There is a sale pending on the car. Assuming the check clears, it should be in someone else's garage in a few days. Thanks to everyone for your interest.
