All parts professionally installed by 1st Try Engineering in Pittsburgh.
Car will come with all original parts.
HID low beam kit
Blue LED conversion inside (one or two are burned out)
HVAC unit will need to be replaced (can be bought for ~$100 used in good shape)
Brand new Lloyds Mats
Comes with a NX nitrous kit, which I bought used and never got around to installing.
All of the mods were installed less than 100 miles ago. Got it done right before fall and she’s been sitting in the garage trying to stay warm in this Pennsylvania winter.
Car was in an accident before I bought it. I’ve put about 4 or 5K miles on it since then. Drives straight, no weird tire wear. Looks great from 10 feet away but if you get up close there are some runs in the paint (not in anywhere really noticeable, unless you are crawling around underneath the car. I have never ran anything other than the Kumho street tires that are on it now. They didn’t do an AMAZING job repainting. This is not a show car. Interior is in pretty good shape. There are some scratches on the door sills, a small scrape on the rear lower 1/4 just behind the wheel well, and the rocker panels are a little bit busted up from previous owners incorrectly lifting the car, but unless you’re 3’ tall or trying to pass this off as a show car, it’s not going to bother you.
Probably have about 6-7K into the car in mods. Obviously I’m not going to be able to get much of that back, so if you were going to do similar mods, you’re basically getting them for free without any of the hassle of going through the install process.
So now that I’m done writing the obituary, here are some pics.
Pictures do not show the scrape on the rear 1/4. I’m at work right now but I can take pics for any serious buyers. I’m already losing my ass on this, so please no lowballers.
I would be interested in a trade for a newer Grand Cherokee.
ASKING PRICE: $16,500
This is a small price to own a piece of Pittspeed.com history. This is THE machine that decimated a certain blue 240SX at the Pittspeed Bench Racer’s Annual.
Please e-mail knapp.mike@gmail.com for any questions. If you are a douchebag, I will not sell you my car. She has to go to a good home.
Did I forget anything, Jeffiepoo?
