I think he was saying around 9k. The motor alone is worth a ton. He would have to go into details on that, but i know its a built JDM (not usdm) type r motor. Most of the internals are all spoon. i know he had or was putting in vtec killer cams and some other stuff. the suspension is the 5 lug usdm type r and all after market brakes and coilovers, Vafc and some other ecu gadgets, Usdm lsd type r tranny. new paint job. took him like 3 months to get it perfect. CF hood and some other stuff. thats what i can remember but i know he has a ton of $$$ into the car. Its all motor and never used any type of FI or nitrous on the car, it runs 12.5 all motor on drag radials. he hasnt ran it since he got the new lsd tranny and some other junk. Vtec kicks so f**kn hard. very fun car and very stealth, its not loud unless hes wot at 9000 rpm. the fun thing is watching the car hit 9500rpm its like a damn street bike!!!!

I threw my wife in the back seat of my EVO and converted her! I could not do that in the Supra!

I went the other way around. I convinced 2 good friends to buy 05 STi's after driving them around in it.

This was so I could trade cars and drive the STi around also.

Well i showed up to his house with the evo and tossed him the keys. About 1 minutes after driving it he couldnt stop

. He is now finishing his 5 lug conversion on his built b18c5 powered EG and selling it as soon as possible for an EVO. I Love my EVO!!!!

Come by the meet tonight. Its at the IN & OUT on West Sahara @ 7:30pm.

Congrats on the new ride.
