Cons
Bonnet Rusty
doors getting some bubbles
paint pretty poor
Typical power window issues
Typical headlight switch issues
Pass side popup not working(i just leave them up)
Motor was built loose to run big boost, however this means that there is some piston slap when cold, and oil comsumption.
Something fairly major going on with the front suspension/steering. This has reached the stage that i dont feel comfortable driving it, certainly not using the power.
Rear shocks stuffed and too short in travel
Throttle sticks just off idle
I honestly very rarely drive the car(as i run a transport company), and as we are expecting our 3rd child its not really practical when i need to

Also have
2.4 bottom end with SPS forged pistons, ARP rod bolts gapless rings-never run
Reco VR-4 head
GT35R .63 external gate setup with manifold external gate and dump pipe
some parts to do a s13 steering rack conversion

JB starion bare metal respray in dark blue, has 2 dents and humidity bubbles in the paint complete car no motor front suspension removed for s13 conversion interior in pieces
440cc injectors
Garage Impul 17x8/17x9's 4/5 stud good fit on starion with 20/15mm spacers
