Comments from the seller
I bought the car new at 4,000km - it was the Sales Manager's drive car, and I've loved it ever since. I've owned all sorts of good cars in my time (I'm now almost 80) from Jags, BMWs, Benzes etc and I still think this is best car I've ever driven.
I have added a few bits and pieces over the years like :
383 Stroker engine by Sam's Performance in Sydney
Mild baby cam,
YellaTerra roller rockers
OTR cold air inlet
Billet throttle-body
Pacemaker tri-y headers
SureFlo 3.5 stainless exhaust (quiet and no drone)
100cpi stainless sports cats
American Dart alloy heads
Mellings oil-pump,
PWR Power-steer cooler,PWR Trans cooler
Urethane front suspension bushes,
Alloy strut-brace,
Koni Yellow external adjustable shocks all round,
Harrop 343 drilled and slotted rotors,
Harrop 4 spot calipers all round
Red Stuff brake pads
Transmission rebuilt and strengthened for sharper changes less than 2000kms ago.
LSD tightened
3.9 diff ratio
4 new Michelin tyres less than 2000kms ago
Spare never been on the road,
I ran it down Willowbank a couple of times just to see what it will do - 12.1 @ 117mph
HID headlight globes
All wheels zero gutter-rash.
Most servicing has been done by PowerTorque in Brendale, QLD but
Moved to the Sunny Coast and just had a $3,831 service done here - new rad hoses, gaskets, water-pump, idler pulleys, rack-boot, sway-bar links, oil-leaks, boot-struts etc
I'm sure there's more I've forgotten
Original books etc of course and I have full history, all receipts etc going back to day 1
The car has never been in an accident and apart from some very minor chips and scratches (it's 21 years old) it is immaculate inside and out.
If you are looking for a noisy, angry, cranky beast - this isn't for you. But if you want a smooth, comfortable rocket that travels below the radar, have a look.
I am moving and haven't space for it at the new place so sadly it's gotta go.
