The car is located in Los Gatos, CA.
I'm pricing it to sale, and the price is firm. I don't have time to screw around
which is why it's being sold in the first place. It's been my daily driver since
the original post I made in January.
(cut & pasted the text of the original post below for those who're too lazy to go read it.
)
I purchased the car in San Diego in Nov '04, and installed the supercharger in
Dec '04. I also had the passenger front fender replaced in Dec '04 after a
run-in with a parking garage/block/wall thing. All the pictures of the car
(here and on my site) were taken after the fender was replaced.
The car runs very strong, and I am selling it to help finance 2 startups and
cover taxes this year. I wanted to build a street/track beast, but I just
don't have the time to finish it.
I won't part it out, so don't ask. You're welcome to come check it out or go
for a ride, but if I haven't met you at an NSX meet I won't let you drive it
unless you come with a money order or cashiers check for the total
amount.. sorry.
Transmission Number: J4A4-1003445, not in snap-ring range.
Clean title & Carfax report is available for free (i already paid to have it done) at:
http://www.carfax.com/cfm/FSBO.cfm?r...FX000011104265
Non-stock items:
Paxton Novi 2000 Supercharger w/ 10PSI pulley (BBSC)
AEM Engine Management System
AEM UEGO Wideband gauge and controller
Autometer boost gauge.
Omori electric oil temp gauge.
RC 550 fuel injectors.
Cone style intake mounted in fender.
Walbro 255L/hr fuel pump.
Enkei RP-01 wheels, 16/17 painted black.
Engine hatch spacers to increase air circulation in engine compartment.
Tein RA coil-overs.
WingsWest side skirts.
Taitec cat-back exhaust w/ test/cat-bypass pipes. (stock headers)
Sony head-unit (i don't remember which model exactly, can't hear it anyway over the engine and blower!)
Maintenance stuff:
60/90k service was done before I bought the car.
Climate Control unit was repaired by BrianK.
I change the oil and bleed the brakes every 2k miles in my shop.
I have a brand-new inbox set of Brembo blank (oem fitment) rear rotors to include with the car.
The interior panels on the rear bulk head are pretty worn out, they don't fit
very well anymore.Also, the windows need to be adjusted and their tracks
lubed, they come up slow.
Any stock parts the buyer wants are included. I'd recommend the stock
ecu/map/injectors/cats at a minimum. I'll also include all brand new in-box
non-complaince parts I purchased a few weeks ago (comptech bumpsteer
kit, rear-beam bushings, toe-links, comptech front camber bushings).
I'm selling it as-is, without a smog certificate.. the new owner will be
responsible for this. If you're state/location needs a smog cert, you'll need
to find a 'friendly' smog station (the blower has a CARB EO number plate), or
disconnect the supercharger (can leave it mounted) and swap the stock
fuel-injectors/ecu/map in.
Compression test numbers from today (warm engine):
Front bank, driver side to passenger side: 180 170 169
Rear bank, driver side to passenger side: 170 170 168
If you have any questions or want to come check it out, please
send me an email ( [email protected] ).
ps: this isn't a car for your wife or son. it's loud as hell, shoots flames, and
has no traction control... just the way it should have been from the factory!
changes since january:
one of the bolts connecting the front bank mid-pipe to the header was old,
and broke off a couple months ago. you can't tell under normal driving, but if
you run up through the gears at full throttle it'll shoot crazy flames because
it sucks air in through that joint when it flexes. since the car has stock
headers, i'd plan to just throw some science of speed headers on the car
and replace that bolt at the same time.
turbohoses replaced that stupid plastic diverter/bypass valve with a direct
replacement metal valve. you can see it in the pictures below.
i accidently left the garage door closed against the rear bumper over a
weekend, and it caused some cracks in the paint in the corners of the
license plate box, and on the left side of the middle portion of the bumper.
you can see them in the pic below.
the wings west sideskirts are starting to sag. you can either get a body shop
to re-attach them, drive it as is, or pop the stock ones back on (they'll
come with the car if you want them).
pss: the new owner can take the vanity plate if they like it, or i'll keep it.

pss: here's some pictures i just took about 20 minutes ago in my driveway:
some older pics i still have handy:
note: i raised the car up about 1/2" and put the stock splitter back on since that photo was taken.
