1997 GPVR auto €500 Sold.

Postby blackwrx » Thu May 23, 2013 2:50 pm

Car has been off the road for a couple of years. Put a battery into it the other day and it started first time.
Mileage on the clock is around 193000km. Original engine was replaced due to sucking up water.
Replacement engine is supposed to have lower mileage but not sure what it is.
Brakes are rubbing badly on the rear so the car will have to be trailered away.
Suitable for parts or project car. Lot of new parts fitted before it was taken off the road.
New stainless exhaust fitted and new shocks all round.
Car is in Meath

It was already changed when you last saw it. I also has an Apex AFC which I forgot to mention.

Any chance of some interior and engine bay pics?

Any rust?

How bad are the brakes? Are the discs damaged?

The discs are rusted from sitting up for so long. I'm working nights at the moment but I'll try to get more pics tomorrow.

Needs a few bits but she was worth every euro she was up for!

Different wheelies:

And the spoiler off to see what she would look like:

You should leave it on, because it's a GPVR and doesn't look right without it. I'm planning to put an OE spoiler on mine. Came with a TopMix spoiler, now it's bare-ass, but I do want a spoiler on her.

You should try get a versionR spoiler, I think they look the best but even a standard one is much nicer than bare-ass spec.

The fact that they block the rear viw so much annoys me, so I wanted a HKS spoiler, but they are next to impossible to find, so a standard one is fine by me.
