I wanted to give everyone an update on my car...

I am sad to say I got ran into by a truck and messed up the right front of my car pretty bad. The car is completely fixable, and the damage is mainly cosmetic; however, after a few months of debate I have decided its time to move on. I am just over spending more money on the car, and I am moving onto another platform. I also have some other things I want to do in my life, and the G just consumes me.

So I have decided to part out everything. I just sold the turbo kit today, but the motor is still avalaible. For those that followed my build know the time, effort, and money I put into this bish. If anybody wants the motor (fully built Cosworth long block) let me know. Motor is in perfect condition and it has less than 7,000 miles on it. This block will make somebody very happy, and it makes power EASY.

Thanks again for all the props and support on this build!

It's too bad to see a nice car like yours being parted out. Which platform have you moved on to if you don't mind me asking?

Frick... NOW he parts it out.

I feel like I might actually know how you're feeling silver- after going through everything I've been through over the past 8 months... the thought of going through it all over again? No thanks.

Anyway, all nubs aside... good luck with the part out and the new vehicle. Will we see the menu over in the marketplace soon? Not to steal the boots before the body has even cooled off but what are you looking to get rid of?

Thanks man...yeah it kills me to do it, but it will be better for me in the long run. I am getting a new 2011 Subaru STI sedan. I still want something fun to drive with power...but a little more street legal out here in socal.

Definately sorry to here, but remember when one door shuts, another one opens

Any chance of you disclosing what the total cost of the build is, now that this story is coming to a close? I read The whole saga but didn't see any numbers. IF not, no biggy, just curious.

Thanks man! Yeah build cost was slightly north of $30K...but that was everything all up all in tuned and installed. Not to mention a lot of custom work done by my mechanic Steve at Corner 3 Garage.

Yes it was definetly a fun process and the car was a blast to drive...and scary in some instances. I am glad to say I did it...maybe one day I will do another one.
