Finished from the factory in yellow, the car was repainted in Laguna Seca Blue following rust repairs and replacement of both front fenders in 2010. Features include BRE-style black body stripes, a front air dam, a JDM-style grille, a rear spoiler, a black bumpers, a power-retractable antenna, chrome window trim, black bullet-style mirrors, and a single exhaust outlet. The seller notes rock chips on the front end, a crack in the paint on the left-rear quarter panel, a chip in the windshield, and a dent behind the passenger door. Blemishes are shown up close in the gallery below.
Gray-finished 16″ Konig Rewind Wheels feature polished lips and are mounted with 205/55 Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires that show 2020 date codes. The suspension has been modified with Eibach lowering springs, MSA sway bars, Tokico gas struts, front and rear strut tower braces, and various polyurethane bushings. Braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums, and additional work performed during current ownership is said to have included replacement of the tie rods, brake lines, master cylinder, wheel bearings, calipers, pads, rotors, and rear drums and shoes.
The cabin features front bucket seats trimmed in black vinyl upholstery with a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include a heater, three-point retractable seat belts, manual-crank windows, blue LED footwell lighting, rear cargo compartments, a fire extinguisher, and a JVC AM/FM CD stereo connected to aftermarket speakers and a Sound Grenade subwoofer mounted beneath the passenger seat. Work performed during current ownership reportedly involved replacement of the seat covers, carpeting, weatherstripping, and various interior trim pieces. A tear on the driver’s seat is shown in the gallery below.
The leather-wrapped Grant steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 7k-rpm redline, while gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, voltage, and fuel level are located in the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows 71k miles, approximately 29k of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 2.8-liter L28 inline-six is said to have been overhauled prior to installation in 2010. Equipment includes flat-top pistons, an upgraded camshaft, dual SU carburetors, Pertronix electronic ignition, an MSD Blaster coil, an MSA ceramic-coated exhaust manifold, an aluminum radiator, a 60-amp alternator, a turbo-style oil pump, and a polished valve cover. An oil change was carried out in October 2021, and the seller notes oil leaks.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. The car has been fitted with an aftermarket 2.5″ exhaust system, and additional work carried out during current ownership reportedly involved an overhaul of the transmission, and replacement of the clutch cylinders, as well as the universal joints on the driveshaft and half-shafts.
