Thanks. At the moment no not really. Maybe once I get rid of my rhd eg and this one I will finish my CF EK.

Thank you. It is one of the few if not the only clean EK/EJ hatch around these areas.

Nothing. The wife and I bought a brand new STI for an everyday car.

You obviously have no clue. Go find another hatch around here built with the quality of parts that I have done, or how about you price out each of the parts that are on the car and see what you come up with. Oh wait you probably wont find 90% of them!

Thank you. The car isn’t rare but a lot if not most of the parts are.

Thanks Nick.

Car is clearly well built, the price is high, but your right if you peiced it out you’d be hard pressed to come close to 6000. GLWS

The price is OBO. Everyone can see that. Most of the parts on my car no one or very few have ever heard or seen of, and I know a lot of people around here dont care about the RARE EDM/JDM/AUDM parts but thats what it is. Its a quality built car with no ebay knock off junk. If I were to part it out here is a rundown of what the parts would sell for. I know this cause I’ve sold quite a few sets already.

Headlights 285.00

Tails 250.00

Rear bumper fog 100.00

Rear fog switch 45.00

Power folding mirrors 250.00

Fenders 250.00

Rear mid wing 150.00

JDM visors 200.00

Rear bumper 300.00 + fog

Front bumper 500.00 + cornering lights and bumper pole and that is a steal. Can easily sell the cornering lights for 200+ bumper pole 200+ and the JDM clear fog lights 200+ (People sell the fogs without wiring for 150 and mine are complete!)

I can go on and on. The JIC suspesnion alone retails for well over 1800! So please who ever has negative comments keep them to yourself!

Thanks buddy. I will be sad to see it go if it really does go. If not under the knife it will go for a complete overhaul. Yeah I’m keeping my Tomcats for the time being. I’ll still be down for the HT meets so keep me posted.

Haha. Got them sitting in the hatch of my RHD EG. Forgot to mention that they will go with the car along with brand new e-brake cables, calipers. The MC and prop valve have already been upgraded as well
