m sprank Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 2008 LGT 5EAT. Car was rear ended. Insurance wants to fix body damage and be done with it. I am not satisfied. My plan is to allow forum members the opportunity to swap there OEM for my goodies at a huge discount over new. Then take the extra cash plus the car and trade it in for something new. I am gonna take a beating on this financially. But WTF am I gonna do? The car will never be the same. I am open to swapping parts with locals (first dibs obviously) or shipping them out. But I am not interested in selling out right and then having to find OEM replacements. I would prefer to trade my goodies for your OEM. If shipping out, I need yours in shipping to me as mine go to you. I can have the car on stands for a while if needed. If you need help pulling your parts or installing mine, I can help. But there is a fee. Labor for swapping parts in not included in the sale. Here is a list of what would be available for trade (all prices are cash and local pick up. PayPal and shipping more); CNT Catted DP. (1k miles). I have OEM this is straight sale. $250 OBO. Ready to Ship Racing Brake front BBK. Calipers, rotors, pads, brackets. (10k miles). Straight Sale. $800 OBO. Need 3 7/8" clearance from center of rotor to edge of caliper for wheel clearance. Ready to Deliver Racing Brake rear BBK. Calipers, rotors, pads, brackets. (10k miles). Straight Sale. $350 OBO. Ready to Deliver 1. morning woodie wagon (Local)? Enkei RPF-1. 18x8, 45mm. With CF center caps. Dunlop treads. (15k miles). No curbage. TPMS are currently installed. Either I need a set from you (and to reprogram my computer) or I pull the TPMS before selling (can be done without dismounting tire). Also comes with set of locking lugs and 16 splined lug nuts with keys. $1100 OBO. IPT VB. (25k miles). I need your OEM. $600 OBO. Ready to Ship Let me know what you think. I might be out of my mind. I might have more parts, lol. -Mike Pix of wheels tires and brakes. All still for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GetErDun Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Definitely sorry to hear, I would take the turbo and IC in a heartbeat if i had the money. GLWS Infamous Tuned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Thanks guys. Wife took the hit, not me. Shes a little sore but ok. Yeah like 2 weeks after installing the turbo and the car is ugly. Never even got to enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longitude Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Damn sorry about the really bad news. I had the pleasure of oogling the car couple times though we haven't met in person. Looks like all the good stuff I'd want are claimed. Best wishes. You making lemonade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpmarky Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Mike did you use stock fueling for that 16g? I might be interested in the turbo + SS lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Yes. OEM fueling. Never even finished tuning the car before it got hit. Turbo is similar to VF-39 (but drop in) in performance. Super torquey bottom end, but holds up top better than a VF-52. I was gonna go for 20 psi max and let it taper till the injectors ran out. Turbo could support more power with 650cc.

MiniStiGuy Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 I PM'd you Mike. This sucks. Should switch to Wawanesa. They have taken excellent care of my family for over 10+ years with accidents, totals, stolen cars etc... no rate increase EVER and fast timely service with a GREAT price.

Drew888 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 OMG! So the wife is ok...??. Holy Crap, sorry to hear about that bro... Hope she is pain free soon and it stays that way. Good luck with the part out. Maybe hold off for an STI sedan and give the wife the spec B.

m sprank Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 My insurance is cool. It is the Access General from the responsible party that is the issue. Adding you to the list G. Sti, hmmm wife likes them but I think they are overpriced. Was considering buying a car for my mother as a gift. Maybe I get a great deal on two at once? Was thinking BMW for mom.

MiniStiGuy Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 that's a nice gift. My mom has a Mini Cooper and LOVES the thing. My buddy is selling a track prepped EVO if you are interested. It's a STEAL of a deal! OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 For me, of course. For the wife... She loves fast cars, but hates the maintenance I have to do. Plus she is getting "old" enough now to not want me working on her car all the time or driving a machine with "rules". She wants something fast from the factory and for me to stop modding her car, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m sprank Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 I did like Mungos car, but that might be a little too much money still. Once you add in the options the car price shoots upwards of $50k very fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HpJunkie Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Ill just assume that means I dont get the pulley. Thats ok sprank, local is easier. Good luck with the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniStiGuy Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 If he wants to box it and send it to you that's fine. I just wasn't sure if you ever responded to him for payment or anything so I was just posting to check in earlier to see what was up with it.

HpJunkie Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Naw not a problem, if you guys can do a swap right there go for it, thats what id do. If you end up not wanting it let me know. Otherwise good luck with the swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be gone all day. Hows Sunday for you? I can swap them on both cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
