Rotarybeat1287's 1987 TurboII w/ mods (blown engine)

[rotarybeat1287]

Hey everyone,

Here's the scoop... popped my rebuild the other night that had roughly 6,000 miles on it so I'm posting my TurboII for sale. I bought this car from the 2nd owner (basicially the original since he purchased it from the 1st owner @ around 1500 miles only a year or so after it's production). I got it with the help of some friends and am very thankful for that. It wouldn't have been possible. That was 3 years ago in 2007 and it was right @ 54k original miles when I got it. I've driven it daily to work, play, and vacation for 3 years w/ the minor hiccups any 7 owner has.

Old pictures of when I first got it... it was pretty much BONE ASS stock except for an old school Racingbeat boost controller & boost gauge which I sold to the head dude of 7club I think? Anywho...



All of this will come with the buyer! Bunch of cool receipts and brochures from the time. Copy of the original window sticker and Car & Driver w/ the TII feature, etc.















Well this was up until 121,000 original miles. The motor finally went tits up on me. She blew and it was time for a rebuild. I immediately bought an S4 long block from a friend for core parts. Upon tearing it down it was found to be a VERY low mileage J-spec core and in EXCELLENT condition for a rebuild. So this was my new core. Everything was built w/ new seals and Streetported.









And the removal of old and installation of new...



























Broke it in as I should have... and installed @ the time in addition to the existing mods.

-Rtek 1.7 ECU upgrade
-FD fuel pump
-Siemens 550/750cc injectors
-PLX wideband



I was finished with the break in and driving her daily when I decided to remove the chipped factory and ugly S4 TurboII wing. I had my authentic RE-Amemiya wing installed by a true professional of body work. It looks fantastic on the existing hole welds and paint matching.













Anywho... with roughly 6,500 miles on the build. She bit the dust the other night. I blame myself for being negligent with the Rtek tune and not going with a stand alone and full tune for the car w/ the mods. But it lasted for a bit and was fun. I am selling the car "AS IS" and you will get pretty much the car with all of the mods listed. Just as it is in the last sets of pictures.

Engine/Mods/Etc.

6,500 roughly from recent rebuild but blown. Compression was 10/10/50 front & 40/40/40 rear. Has streetport but dunno what will have to be replaced. Most likely the entire shortblock.

I DO NOT want to hear what you THINK the car is worth or anything. Keep it out of my thread. If you want to discuss price and such. PM me. I am posting the car for the price of $4,500 as it sits. I'm not going to post it for 1500 w/ everything it comes with and get raped on price. Especially since I've owned the car since 54k miles.

I will negotiate price if you do not want some or any of most of the mods. Such as wheels, and such. Example... if you just want the car as it sits with out the Work wheels and provide wheels upon pick up. Price would be $3,500. I can subtract money from that from other mods being removed but will not get under the car for pulling the motor/trans/exhaust, etc. I'm talking interior and engine bay related mods.

You will have to arrange pick up w/ a trailer or schedule shipping and pay for it in full. I do not want to mess w/ any of that. The car is very low so take this into account if you want to dolly it. I can help raise the car if buyer is serious but only when/if cash is in hand upon pick up.

If you have questions and are serious. PM me as it's the fastest way to get in touch with me.

-CASH only
-NO trades
-No cluttering my thread w/ BS.

If you want to talk then PM me and I'm happy to negotiate and hear you out. Thanks for looking. I'm located in the upstate of South Carolina in the Greenville/Easley area.

ASKING & FIRM $4500

Wat?!

[djmtsu]

I am very sad. I SO wish I had the $$$ on me right now, I would be ALL OVER this FC.

This is a truly quality car, not many FC's around that are in this condition, especially S4's.

Good luck with the sale man, and if I come up with $4500 in the next week, I'll be in touch!

Bump for a good car.

[TitaniumTT]

I love this car, and really want to see it go to a good home.

Allen.... if you do get the buyer who's not interested in the rims... I would be... and I may have to accert my admin powers and approve sales to make sure it goes to someone who will treat her with the respect that a car of this caliber deserves.

[rotarybeat1287]

bump... can negotiate price as so:

w/o wheels, you provide stockers upon pickup: $3,500
w/p wheels and: $3,000
-GReddy Profec-B boost controller
-GReddy turbo timer and harness
-GReddy boost gauge
-PLX wideband

Great shell and a start for someone who wants a quality car. Most people go the other way and start with an engine and spend WAY more fixing paint, interior, suspension, etc.

Think about it guys: A new rebuild or jspec engine = $1500 max. So for 5k you have a great looking and quick example Rx-7 with supporting mods already installed. Good deal in my eyes.

Sorry to hear it Allen.

You're killing me with those wheels... dooo want, I will have to see if I can get rid of mine quickly to see if I can pick these up.

[eric92]

How much of the car have you parted out? Cuz im interested in buying the car, if you would still want to sell it, instead of just parting it out.

[djmtsu]

The whole car has been sold.
