Trying to decide if I want to part this car out or sell it whole.
Exterior:
'01 front end conversion
Sylvania Silverstar headlight bulbs
OEM hard top
17”x7” +42 Konig Holes (2 curbed, but also includes 1 brand new spare) w/ Yokohama Parada Spec 2 205/40ZR17
'01 tail lights
Garage 502 mirrors
Nielex front and rear tow hooks
Beatrush front license plate frame
slight hood tilt
Brakes:
Hawk HP+ pads
Goodridge stainless steel brake lines
DOT 4 fluid
Transmission:
Royal Purple 75w120 & diff additive in rear diff
stainless steel braided clutch line
DOT 4 clutch fluid
Interior:
Mazdaspeed steering wheel (D-cut or limited edition, I'm keeping one)
NRG hub adapter
Maruha shift knob
Motor/engine bay:
Ported & polished intake manifold main runners
ARC intake chamber
HKS SMF reloaded filter (red)
Magnecor KV85 race spark plug wires
NGK ZFR5F-11 spark plugs
Gates racing timing & accessory belts
Royal Purple 10w30 & filter
removed charcoal canister & other plastic bits, still have them
Garage Vary carbon fiber radiator cooling panel
Suspension:
Ohlins coil-over dampers (race valved)
Swift coil-over springs (12kg/mm front, 8kg/mm rear)
Carbing front & rear strut tower bars
Eibach sways
Good-win-racing heim jointed end links
RB front sway brace
RB front sway brackets
Gates racing timing and accessory belts, Royal purple fluids in everything and Royal Purple oil filters, oil and filter changed every 3k mi despite the packaging claiming to be fine until 15k, save once during the trip from SC, to Ohio, to CT. The radiator hoses were replaced when I replaced the timing belt. It'll have a new Visteon OE replacement radiator in it. The upper ball joints, which require replacing the entire front upper control arm, have been replaced. Clay bared and waxed around the end of fall. That's off the top of my head. The car's currently not running, which I'm going to fix before selling, so that list is going to grow. Car's got about 117k on it. I've been keeping a log on it all since I bought the car at 77k mi. I've got a picture documentary on flickr. It's a southern car too. Went from inland FL, to inland GA, to SC with me, to CT just last year, hasn't seen salt yet, so no rust worth mentioning anywhere to speak of, just a little I had to wire brush off back by the fuel hoses in the trunk (not visible). The only thing I can think of that doesn't work is the CD player. It never bothered me, so I didn't replace it. It's rude to interrupt your car when it's talking to you anyway. I was building the car for STR autocross use. Just add a roll bar and some exhaust if you're willing to lose the awesome tone the car has stock.
