Default 99' EK Hatch GSR Swapped in FLORIDA **TESTING WATERS**

First off, i REALLY dont want to sell it, but like anyone.. if the right offer came along, ide probably take it.

HISTORY:
I bought this car off a H-T member who used to live in California, he then moved to West Palm beach and had the car transported on a car transport. When i bought the car, the engine/body had roughly 43k on it according to the carfax. And you could tell.. the car looked SPOTLESS in the pictures, i just had to see it for myself.. At this point, ive been looking for an EK hatch for almost a year.. so this one seemed too good to be true. I decided to drive the 4 1/2 hours from Tampa to West Palm to check this thing out. I fell in love at first site. When i bought it, it had the single cam in it, and it had some kind of weird problem with the tranny, which bothered me a little, but i know i had some better plans for it later on down the road.

Now today, it has a GSR swap in it, running better than ever. I had to take a small loan out on the car to buy it, and now that im in school full time, its getting harder and harder to make the payments on it every month.

Now on to the details:
The body now has about 50-60k on it

1998 GSR Motor (70k on motor) Installed Feb. 05
-DC 4-2-1 Headers
-Apexi World Sport2 Catback (2 months old)
-SKunk2 Intake Manifold (3 months old)
-Chipped p28 ECU tuned with CROME PRO (tuned by MTBER )

Tein Flex suspension
Energy suspension bushings all around
Comptech rear tie/sway combo
Skunk2 front camber kit
Ingalls rear camber kit

Full GSR disk brakes all around
EBC slotted rotors
Axxis metal master brake pads
Stainless steel brake lines

OEM Si lip
JDMshit Type R grill
JDMshit CTR rear lip
DIY black housing headlights
Color matched mirrors, side moldings, and sideskirts
15" Rota slipstreams with 195/50/15 es 100s

Si doors (Power windows and locks)
Si Climate Control
Si Gauge Cluster
CTR shift boot
Skunk2 weighted Shiftknob
B&M Short shifter

Interior is very clean. I detail the inside at least once a week, and wash it at least 2 times a week, depending on my schedule. The only thing left i need for the interior are some floor mats. It didnt have any when i bought it. Besides that, everything looks. Now onto what everyone wants to see...

Heres kind of a small timeline from when i got it, to what it looks like now..

PICS:



























Heres an OLD motor pic

I dont have any interior or motor shots right now, Ill do my best to get those up ASAP, my camera isnt that great, so we'll see..

I have quite a few vouches as to how clean the car is, inside and out, so if you guys want to chime in, feel free...

As to what im trying to get...
I really wanted to try and get a dc2 + cash, or something similar..
I really like markzeronines teg, and mtbers teg.. So if you want to refer to those 2 cars to see what im looking for, have at it.
If not that, then <FONT SIZE="5">$9,500 o.b.o</FONT>

Dang... I know this sounds crazy, but I'm actually in the process of selling My 03 Evo VIII for basically the same reason. I need something cheaper while in School. Your car is pretty much exactly what I want. I use to have a FBP 99 Si coupe. So this would be the perfect replacement for my old car. if you would pm me your information so we can talk a little more. I would greatly appriciate it. thanks for you time.. good luck with the sale.. it's a sweet *** car..
