I am sure I have forgotten something and will edit as I remember. This is a one stop rolling upgrade waiting for someone to do a complete modernization to their GS. The engine is dynamite, very torquey, excellent high RPM power, yet relaxed and quiet on the street and highway. The car has been modified with autocross as a priority and is now in the ballpark with most modified Miatas in my local autocross area. All but the most minor development items have been attended to.
As you can imagine, I am highly disappointed to have to sell the car as it is instead of enjoying it as it was. The car is for sale as a unit. I am asking $2500 for this fully sorted car that will provide ALL the parts to upgrade your car. Believe me; to source, buy, and install the parts on this car cost at least twice my asking price. As always, the price is negotiable depending on terms, delivery, timing, and attitude. This is a nice, fast, good handling, comfortable, DEPENDABLE car.
I can deliver the car to your location in the Southeast, or meet you midway within 5-600 miles of Tampa. I do not want to part it out due to time issues, but may change my mind if sweet talked. The drive train is a special gem; sweet talking might persuade me to part with it as a complete unit, with ignition and ECU. Give me a call!
