Selling my car that my dad bought from his friend back in ~2008 with ~111 k miles. It's had its share of problems during my ownership but they've been addressed like water pump. radiator +hoses. spark plugs. head gasket. I really liked this car and would've loved to keep it but I just don't have the time to work on it. Would love to see it go to an enthusiast who would give it the attention it deserves!

VIN: JT 2 ST 88 P 9 L 0004514
Clean Title.

Current status
Currently the car is running great except the TVIS(the one that controls boost in gears 3+) is disconnected. This means boost only goes up to +8 PSI for all gears. The solution was to to install a Greddy Boost gauge and Twos R Us MBC but never got to it. Motor internals are stock. This was my college DD (highway miles).

Turbo:
Features the CT 20 B from newer MR 2 years (3 rd gen 3 sgte turbo)
Turbo rebuilt and balanced in 2013 at Performance Techniques in San Bernardino. CA with the steel turbine wheel and is ready for boost! (invoice in hand)

Drivetrain/Exhaust:
HKS Silent High Power exhaust (I'm going to miss this!) The combination of the HKS silent high power and the Berk downpipe makes the car sound phenomenal.
Berk 3" downpipe (not installed)
K&N Air Filter(not installed)- Great for noise like a BOV but loss in low end throttle response. Stock unit works fairly well in my comparison in hot So Cal.
Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator -Old original radiator began leaking. replaced. Keeps things cool.

Electronics:
Kenwood concealed headunit/Rockford fosgate dual amplifier. Came with the car. Had a shop install an auxillary cable for 3. 5 mm audio input.

SMOG concerns:
For those that live in California and without smog connections. this car passed smog legally last year. (This year they only asked for registration renewal $). Currently has a intact 3 rd 3 SGTE cat.

Leaking??:
Currently do not see any leaks coolant or oil. Just changed the oil out and swapped the oil filter.

Problems/Things I'd address:
Transmission needs some work done- primarily the synchros. -Shifts Ok but you need to baby it in the lower gears.
Power steering needs some work.
Rear bumper paint.
Overall paint on car is faded (you'll see in the photos)
New wheels/ Tires.
New shift knob.
Scratch on driver side -rear side light.
