with out the wheels i wouldn't offer more than 8 TOPS
It might be a Greddy SP2 cat back. It also doesn't have the Racing Harts on it. That alone should lower the price.
I was just getting ready to comment on the P5 wheels its rockin'...Yet in the description it says it has 17'' wheels....Wrong.with out the wheels i wouldn't offer more than 8 TOPS
I don't think those are even P5 wheels .. I think they might be the stock wheels off an ES Protege.I was just getting ready to comment on the P5 wheels its rockin'...Yet in the description it says it has 17'' wheels....Wrong.
It lookpretty clean...but it has obviously ha someone modding on it and we have no idea in what form or fashion.
Hi guys, just registered today. I haave some questions because im very close to buying a 2003.5 MSP and want to clear some things up.
But first let me give you guys a little insight into why i'm here today.
Started my new job a while back after i bought my streetbike, I decided I was going to save for a new car, specifically an Evo IX RS. I was so pumped for the longest time. Tons of my friends have WRX's, SRT4's, a few STI's and 2 Evo's I can think of off the top of my head. I don't have alot of financial obligations right now, so the plan was to buy an Evo, and then dump money into it to make it very fast. The more I thought about this, the more the idea of spending $20K on a car, then immediatly spending another $10K on a bunch of parts got really distasteful. I don't want to buy evo and just drive it stock, I would have to modify it in some other way to make it unique to me. I was thinking about other cars that could suit my needs and thats when i remembered a girl I worked with previously had a spicy MSP. This is the car I want to have/build.
So i've been reading the forums and I really like what I see so far. I looked on some car websites/classifieds, and found a 2003.5 MSP 2 towns over from me with 95K on it for $5995, private seller. Figure I can pick it up for 5300 or so. Car has TBE and a bunch of audio equip. , that's it. What I envision in my head is, buying this car, and building a built motor with forged interals, along with all the other supporting mods to make good power (FMIC, SSAFC, Clutch etc.) I've worked on alot of different cars and have a bunch of friends with LOTS of experience with 4cyl turbos.
I have all of this money set aside, not really burning a hole in my pocket, but I do want to get a project going soon. This seems like it could be very affordable in my eyes. Bear in mind I was planning on spend over $20K on an Evo IX and then putting even more money into it.
So whats everyone thoughts on this? With this many miles what else should I be weary of? My horsepower goals are modest, I just want something that I can cruise in, but when I want to get up and go it does, and handles like a dream. I hear these things handle awesome as well
Looking forwards to any comments/critiscm
