interestign to see what was downgraded before it got sold. lol.

[KiwiTT]

You know what amazes me ... you get a lot of car for under $4,000 with a VR-4 these days. To think these cars were $65,000+ new and one like this with another $10K of work etc. added.

Its one of the reasons I still keep mine ... even with the escalating fuel costs.

[Subaru ETA]

Christ I wouldn't buy this thing.... Knowing who did the work on it!

[Ryan]

I think you meant "wouldn't"? :p

LoL @ "used occasionally for weddings". At least someone has typed up the ad for him.

[Subaru ETA]

Q isn't the one selling it if that's what you mean Ryan. The person he sold it to is selling it.

I wouldn't buy a car knowing he had done the work on it. Plus the fact it doesn't look like it's actually certified! You would have to ask why that wasn't done while the dip **** owned it

[Ryan]

Ohhhh, didn't even look at who was selling it. Just assumed that Q was and that he'd been taking night classes on spelling and grammar or something.

[scott.mohekey]

So.. because it was used for Q's wedding, he thinks he can say that was all it was used for?

[low_vr4]

Pfft this one will eventually fall apart just like scotts one did, his is going in for a full paint and panel in a few weeks

[Gly]

heh, i like to see what the unanswered questions are, anyone here???
they've answered one of mine so far,

[low_vr4]

"Its a rare vr" It was a GDI now a VR4 built by someone who is qualified welder and fibreglass fabricator. They probably paid about 10g for it. Wheres the muffler?

funny advert.. soem of us do know that this car was "custom" built, and radically downgraded by the looks of the engine bay. good luck on the sale.

was more of a comment and they ignored it lol.

[Oggie]

Seller Comment: if you are looking for a standard VR4 with wof and reg already then this is not for you bid on another auction for $7500 as listed but if you are wanting a rare one off VR4 at a super price and are mechanically minded then this is a bargain buy for you as per comments not alot needed. Regards 1:52 pm, Thu 21 Jul

Anyoen wish to translate that? not sure if he wants more than 7500 or less.

[Oggie]

[low_vr4]

Will do, its a perky, jet black too

[Subaru ETA]

I put a question up which hadn't been answered. I did that this morning. In my question I asked the details of the workshop who did the work

[KiwiTT]

So it is not even a VR4 -- ha ha !!

[Fully]

Correct the guy I got this off is a mitsit building specialist he devotes hours building these imaculate

I laffed at that comment :P

[wintertidenz]

Interesting that it's meant to have a Link ECU, yet it still has a MBC on it... and a pretty filthy looking pod filter.

Looks like the exhaust has been stripped off?

[low_vr4]

It looks as though he has taken all the good stuff off it

[Oggie]

quick somone ask if its 4wd/2wd or not lol..



mike what does jet black look like? satin black is semigloss/matte and we know gloss black is shiney so what is jet black?

[low_vr4]

Jet black is super glossy from memory, full panel and paint - $700 haha sweet perky

[thfelipeth]

Jet black is super glossy from memory, full panel and paint - $700 haha sweet perky 700! what! where? i want! is it illegal to change the colour??

[low_vr4]

One of his mates is doing it, Think you just have to say the colour has changed when you get your next rego

[Gly]

dont think they like being asked/commented..

ok, so its not a "real vr4" its a conversion, and has no LVV Cert to make sure its been done to legal standard? No WOF or REGO either?

[Oggie]

I am tempted top

I am highly tempted to ask that my self.

[CANDEE]

No cert, no wof and no rego...... So its just a glorified garage queen.....

[Kitten]

I asked about the 4wd vs 2wd thing...couldn't help myself!

[BEG4ME]

Wheres the muffler?

Q probably still has it and is trying to sell it as a "custom" system. Probably still rocking the standard GDI system with VR4 front pipe assembly glued on.

[BEG4ME]

Oh yea. Anybody else thinking of Eiffel 65's hit song?

car is at 5grand and counting and STILL not near reserve. makes me wonder how much was removed from "his baby"

just looking... most if not all the custom hard piping, the muffler and maybe muff system, oh i know !!! its had an upgrade Q dont own it. ( sowwi ) , I am sure that wagon is now a lowered with 18's and a "nice" body kit thats should be a stock vr4 it could have the engine in it he claimed was from the 1500 dollar wreck.. link computer would explain it... unless it needs the comp to run the engine because its NOT a vr4.

fook now i am rambling lol

Are you saying link computer, as in, "this computer plus this one should make it work? Crap, blown fuses. I'll just put bigger fuses in"

Now i'm rambling. Haha.

Apparently it is 4wd.

Reel it in now, please, and keep the discussions to the car only. Despite the matters surrounding the banning of the member in question, it's not really that fair to discuss issues regarding a person who has no right of reply.

Much obliged! :)
