WRX_3quarter_5.jpg

I'm after $22.5k ono but I'll consider offers as I would like to sell it before August.

car located in St Ives, around 30seconds away from Max Brenner there on monavale road

For sale is my Immaculate MY99 WRX purchased in January this year, previous owner bought it in 2002 and decided after 10 years it was time 2 move on finally :P

I've only driven maybe 2000km's in the 4months i've owned it, I'm world famous for being an epic hardparker.

Massive amounts of time, effort and money have been put into this car. REGO TILL APRIL 2013

$60k worth of receipts available.

This car has been serviced and built by Autotech Granville and runs flawlessly.

The car currently makes 267kw on low boost (16psi) and will make +300awkw with some more boost.. engine + turbo reccomended for 25psi (although you should never really need it as will be appreciated upon testdrive)

This car is engineered and has passed emmisions, previous owner spent alot of time and money keeping the car as legal as possible while maintaing maximum performance.. nothing better than driving through RBT + getting pulled over by highway patrol and they let a 400hp GC8 drive through without any defects!!!!

The car ran 11.9 when it was making 255awkw by the previous owners first time at the track.. the dogbox allows for some wicked shifting with 100% peace of mind, current power and some good driving will get you probably mid 11's, up he boost and low 11's are there for the taking with ease...

This car has a huge list of modifications including but not limited to -

- 2.5 litre block

- STi Heads and variable cams

- APS SR55 Turbo

- Haltech E11

- 5 Speed dog box

- APS Intercooler kit

- 3" Turbo back Custom exhaust meeting twintip mulffer (Passed emissions, very queit on idle)

- Hi flow injectors

- Fuel rail and pump

- XSD Coilovers (legal height)

- Heavy duty ceramic clutch

- Aluminium Flywheel

- STi Manifold

- GFB Pulley Kit

- APS Plumb back Blow of valve

- Billet Forged Conrods

- Forged Pistons

- Standard airbox with performance filter (legal)

- 8000k HID's recently installed with lifetime warranty

- Intima SR-6300 Series Brake Pad's (front and rear)

- DBA 4000 rotors on the front

The car currently has 155,000km's but all of the engine work was done at 125,000ks

I haven't owned the car long, maybe only 4months, in that time apart from rego I've spent probably $1k on it, I've had the HID's installed, had oil flushed and replaced twice (once with 5w30 which I used for 600km's then decided I wasn't satisfied with and now It's got Delvac 15w40 as recommended by auto-tech and MSR), replaced the oil filter, replaced the fuel filter, flushed and replaced brake and clutch fluid, replaced brake pads all round, next on the list was replacing gearbox oil but never got around to it and my mechanic said it wasn't essential now anyway. all these changes made in the last 1000km's.

was having some trouble with the fuel economy (200km's out of a tank) since replacing the oils and filters, Ive gotten around 300km from the last 3 tanks, all short stop and go 5-10km trips.. I never let the tank get to less than around 5litres of petrol still remaining so could probably get 350km out of a full tank of petrol and a steady right foot...

please note, I can't allow every single person to jump in and take this for a spin, this is a very difficult car to drive, the clutch + gbox combination takes some getting used to even for already experienced drivers.. took me the best part of 6 weeks to really get a proper hang of it, it goes without saying, 267kw is no joke, this car is truley not for the faint hearted and if you've just got off your p's and want to buy your first turbo car, don't bother coming round because I don't want the next time this car pops up on the forums for it to be pics wrapped around a pole...

first to testdrive it will buy it... :twisted:

reason for sale, no bullshit story, I am starting uni again next semester and have decided to begin working out of home again and need a daily to travel 60km's 5 days a week and this is most certainly not the car for that.

don't think I've missed anything... i'm not in a rush to sell, I'm not desperate for cash, but I would be running on a tight budget if i was to maintain this and a daily driver at the same time so I'd prefer to sell it before buying a daily,

nice car but a little overpriced for a rexy

true it might be, but it is negotiable, and it has 11months rego, with everything servicable done less than 3 months ago and it's engineered for every single mod on there so i wouldn't say its just a "rexy" :)

yeah man 98, tune was done by spiro at AutoTech, when I called him and said why is it using so much fuel, spiro said because **prev owner** asked me to rich it up to keep it as safe as possible...

it uses alot of fuel on stop/start drives, but for 3rd and 4th gear for example, last week, i drove to my dads house and back twice, (100km's roughly) lastnight the light came on and i was on exactly 340km's !!

yeah paintwork is original, no accident history, only paint change is the front bumper, rear bar and side skirts so the lip matched the car =]

hay guys pm's replied, cars still for sale but I cant show anyone the car this week, just had 4 wisdom teeth pulled out, don't want to scare anyone with my face.

previous owner just called it "custom" he actually had 3 different body kits painted and fitted on (STI included) before he chose this..

2k price drop for the next week only since I was hoping to purchase my aunties hyundai as my daily, she's now considering trading it as she's gotten a good deal at the dealership (who would have thought :shock: ) and she'll be trading it not this weekend but the one after unless I can give her some cash for it!!

hey guys, back up to 22.5 auntie traded her car earlier today for a ni$$an.

also have an interstate buyer viewing the car this saturday.

    • How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?
    • Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.
    • I just finished up a manual swap and I have a 1999 S2 AWD automatic in my garage, depending on where you are located. I'm in the the midwest of the US.
    • I’ve heard it can be done, you need to redrill the holes where they bolt to the chassis and apart from that they are the same. I’ve never done it or know anyone personally that has, it’s just something I’ve heard 
    • If it's reading full rich prior to a misfire that gives one directional hint, if it's already reading lean, etc. If it's reading pretty cleanly stoichiometric then suddenly drops out from a misfire that suggests it's not air mass estimation that's the problem. Could be ignition, could be something more subtle. Could be the CAS has decided to start dropping out at random or the drive pin is worn leading to excessive lash and trigger errors. LTFT can tell you the same but it's slower to react and if this is a recent issue it might not have stabilized. STFT stuck in one direction vs fluctuating back and forth can be used instead but I like to read O2 voltages anyways and interpret directly. If the O2 voltages make no sense in general or are super slow to react it could also be a failing O2 sensor. There's no real error correction for failing O2 sensors in these cars.
