Finally selling my baby to fund a new swap.
1998 RS coupe, full 205 swap, dash swap, everything swapped over minus front and rear seats.
Runs and drives beautifully.
Mod list:
VF23 turbo
STi header
Catess up pipe
HKS Hi-Power catless downpipe
JNA 3" catback
STi 565cc pinktop injectors
Perrin shortram intake
STi rear swaybar
Hella 6000k HID kit
99 RS front bumper
Pioneer headunit
OEM Lamco gauge pack
Unknown BOV
Drilled and slotted rotors
Raceland GD coilovers
Custom trunk audio setup
Im sure im forgetting a bit too...
Pros:
-Very reliable (never broke down on me once in the 15 months Ive had her and 1100 miles Ive put on) just drove over 500 miles for WBM last weekend.
-Handes awesome!
-Dash swap
-New timing belt done ~9k ago
-Still turns heads everywhere!
-Clean title (VT issued with custom VTX xxxxxx vin tag)
Cons:
-Has some rust on the body, some previous patches, one small bondo crack (hey it was a NY/VT car since 98, its not to bad) (underneath is VERY nice, subframes still OEM black!)
-Could use a proper tune, tuned for everything minus TBE and intake.
-Front bumper is peeling slightly to reveal the original BRP of the bumper cover.
This is very reliable and would make a wonderful DD.
Asking 8000 OBRO, ONLY trade would be for a bone stock GC coupe in minty shape, zero rust anywhere + cash.
*IM keeping the P1 rims and JDM 'I' grille, I have a stock grill and emblem in red that will be on it at time of sale, along with stock 5 spokes and summer tires.*
