So i found my old post and i pretty much copied n paste so I dont have to re-write my whole story again =)

 

I dont have the time, nor desire to Finish my baby, so Ima let her go..

Im trying to step away from the car game for awhile, plus Im rarely Home,

Most of you know a little about me on the forums, I have a good rep, and I'll try being as honest as I can be.

It's a 1988 palermo grey Starion Esi-r

 

 

Mileage on chassis is around 126,xxx I believe

 

The motor, has been completely rebuilt,,

 

I'll quickly give a list of the mods as BEST as I can remember.... I've easily spent over 12grand in parts in the past 4-5 years

~ 500miles on rebuilt 2.6

Block-

Custom JE pistons

Shot-peened rods

Micropolished crank

Arp rod/head bolts

Tanked/magnafluxed block

New freeze plugs

New High volume oil pump

ALL new cylinder sleeves

Fidanza flywheel

Stage 3 clutch

Stedabani short shifter (rare)

 

Head-

Marnal Head

5angle valve job

Titanium springs/retainers

Jet valve elimination

O-ring head job

Mostly the entire engine is either polished, or Red/black

 

B16g turbo

Mk1 full 3" stainless exhaust

Maf-translator

Custom front mount intercooler + polished piping, Hks ssq Blow off

valve

*DM Intake

Adj Fpr

Stainless steel fuel lines

Bosch High volume fuel pump

Battery in trunk

Silicone radiator hoses

Eibach susp springs

Kyb gas shocks

Painted/polished rims

AEM wideband 02 (in pod)

Autometer cobalt boost gauge (in pod)

Grant sttering wheel

New tie rods

New front Air dam (Flat black for now)

 

That's all I can think of right now, I'm sure Im missing a handful, but that's the Bulk...

 

The car currently ISNT running..

Im rarely home, so when I get home, I spend a bunch of $$ on in parts, but never have time to work on it...

I had it rebuilt shortly before I left...

 

I bought a Maf-translator shortly before I deployed, and had it hooked up, ect... H

 

Probs:

 

 

Ext: When I was gone first time for ~5months, The car was parked in my

mothers garage, and My

infant brother put a handful of dents on the left side of the car...

 

Lierally days before I left I bought this for ~$250 and Installed it.. I

had the car running/idling

PERFECT.. But it was a tad bit lean, so I made an

Adjustment while the car was running, and messed up the unit... I didn't

have time to buy another

one, so that's how she sits now in my buddies back yard...

 

Other than that, that's really all she needs to run... I just don't have

time to finish it, and Im in

the market for a car the I wont be tempted to spend money on!

 

I have quite a history with her, she could use some tlc in select areas,

But its been my pride and

joy for awhile...

 

Has tons of potential, motor isnt even broken in yet.. I can tell you

anything about the car...

 

is Im hoping to get ~3grand for it as is.. Plus ALL extra/spare parts

I have... Obviously OBO, I need it gone, so feel free to shoot me resonable offers

Thanks!

Any rust on the body or frame rails, and could you post current pics of the dents on the left side of the car

or call me or leave a number at which you can be reached at. Also the engine bay paint color does not match the

body,, did you do that or the previous owner. Is this the original color of the car.

What kinda trades? Probably I'm more in need of the $$ right now.

 

And thanks for the interest Bob..

The car is currently sank into the dirt so it's hard get under and look right now.. But as far as I remember there was minimal if any frame rust.. There's is rust around the battery tray however... It's been an Az car it's whole life so there will be minimal rust.

 

The color of the car is Palermo. I had the bay painted black before I put my new Motor in years ago and it's not the best job. I think they rattle canned it. They didn't get paid.. Previous owner raped alot outta the car and I've done my best to bring it to tip top shape.. But I just don't have the will time or means to continue the proj. It's just been getting beat up in garages and backyards since I'm never home..

 

My name is Ryan Davis and I can be reached @ six o two, three one five, two two one five.. Thanks again,

I'll have to wait til Friday for driver side pics unless my buddy can send some to me, I'm already outta town

sup ryan, this is david man

 

you back from over seas???

 

this is a car i've looked to for inspiration people, sounds pretty damn good running! seen him rebuild the motor before he took off, so its all true. tons of ported and polished/coated parts, not cheap. plus it just looks aggressive the way it sits on the road.

 

good to see you back, some one buy this!

Damn, why do these deals always have to happen when I dont have any cash. If you were within trailer distance I would sell my daily just to buy this. Go luck man and hopefully someone who appreciates the car will get it, not some kid whos going to drift it into a wall.

Thanks guys,,

And The car does need a battery, and im sure a few other things...

As far as hooking up a Maf-t to get it running, id assume itd work but Im not sure if id trust it right off the bat..

I only had the car idling for 2mins on it beforehand, so id still trailer it to be safe,
