The dollar ammount on some of the parts is rediculous. my Evo has most of the mods this one does - cage and overpriced seats, but i have autronic and can seat 5 comfortably. i guess i could sell my Evo for $45,000 no problem.
Give us his phone number now.. I want a $800 busch series quality cage.

ok guys, selling the track car. No expense has been spared to make a super fun, super reliable and super safe track car.
It started life as a 2005 EVO RS. We bought it and literally stripped it the day we drove it home. To date there are less than 1500 miles on it!
We have done a lot to it and I may forget some of the stuff cuz the car has been sitting in the shop for 5 months (no time for track days lately). I'm trying to find receipts, but I'll do my best.
The engine was built to be bombproof. It is still on the stock turbo and has dynoed at 325WHP on 110 @23lbs boost!!
Engine parts:
Race Cams
Cam Gears
Greddy Intercooler
PWR 57mm radiator
680cc injectors w/SAFC and RRE tune
BOVs
Apex'I turbo timer
JIC titanium catback with RRE test pipe and Helix downpipe
Brakes, wheels, tires and suspension:
DMS 50mm suspension Set-up and alignment by RobiSpec
RobiSpec fender rolling for 275 wide rubber.
25mm rear sway/anti-bumpsteer/rear bushings
Enkei RPF1 hyperblack 8.5x17+40 with 255/40/17 toyoRA1's shaved
Stoptech front brake kit (for 17" wheels)
Aerodynamics:
APR wing and side mirrors
CWEST front bumper
Interior:
Fully stripped
Custom Guage Pod with top of line guages (i think they're Greddy's)
Full 6 point rollcage with side bars
Cobra seats (Evolution GT driver, Suzuka GT passenger)
Sparco/Schroth harnesses with camlocks
we stripped a couple hundred pounds off the car and then put another 120 or so back with the cage. It now weighs 2960lbs wet at the last corner balancing.
I'll try to get some pictures by Friday at the latest. The car is white aside from the carbon bits. We have about $60k into it and only one track day on it! This car really is brand spankin new. I have no clue what it's worth so I'll say $50,000 obo.

the $60k that you claimed you put on the car seems to everyone like not even a $15k-$20k budget.
You don't know the gauges that you have in your car? you said you are not sure?
Replacing the brakes for Stoptechs was an idea that many people will argue, what was wrong with the stockers Brembos? Last time I hear from Brembos the EVO stock Brebo brakes stopped the EVO 3 feet sharper than the Ferrari Enzo 15" ceramic brakes from 60-0 MPH, it is that enough for you?
Remember, when they tested the RS agaisnt the MR the test drivers complaint about the lack of ABS on the RS, you couldn't brake in the last minute like on the regular EVO8 and MR.
What is wrong with the seats? Recaro are top notch, they are the perfect balance between comfort and performance..
The Greddy intercooler and Power radiator wouldn't bring much power if any.
I don't know what to tell you but I think people rather takes the $50k and build their Own EVO to a better configuration.
Can you break down the parts that you have with the prices?
Thanks and good luck!!
I will try to help you seeling the stuff the best way I can.

sorry it took me so long to get here guys.
to the guy that is trying to sell the car, the fact that you can't post in the for sale forum unless you have 50 posts is there for the protection of our members. posting in another forum is pretty much breaking the rules around here so it will not be tolarated. you have 2 options, go sell it somewhere else or do what everybody does and wait till your post count is up. i am closing this and please do not even think about posting this in another forum other than the for sale forum. i don't care if this car is the poster car for motorsports, the motorsports forum is not here to sell things!!!!
