2003 manual 6 sp RX8.
Legally REW swappable!
Fresh Renesis engine built by ARC in Sydney, fresh street port.
Very much loved car! 10 years of passion in here! 2 cars together. 1 had hail damage so i bought another and made 1 great car from both.
Time has come for me to start looking at a more 'responsible' hobby as i have spent wayyyy too much on this project with no end in sight.
Expressions of interest mainly as im not goung to part with it for peanuts. 2 cars worth of bits (only 1 engine and box though). Heaps of spare bits, extra bits, new bits.
The great stuff=
Exedy button clutch HD, brand new
New tyres
Blutooth unit
Sub installed
20 in deep dish wheels, (some rash sadly.)
Body not perfect but presents well for age.
Solar steel tint on rear windows, (spare car has all solar steel tint windows but swqpped rear door windows)
Both cars registerable without issue
All recalls done
New high power rad fans
New radiator/ thermostat
Gearbox is like brand new, silky changes.
All parts changed have been painted, cleaned or replaced. Boxes of bits from other donor cars plus whole other car rolloing shell included.
New clutch pedal assembly
Aftermarket stainless exhaust.
New seals around rear lights
Eyelids that add to front appearences.
The bad= power steering light is on, needs a part swapped from donor car, ill do that for new buyer if required.
Throttle body/ accel pedal mismatch code yet to diagnose but parts are here.
