SKUNK2 shift ****. Radio Block Off (OEM). Master Kill Switch/Key . Carbon Kevlar Fuel Pump Cover. EX model Amber cluster with the original DX speedo swapped over to keep mileage. Amber climate control as well; matches the cluster perfectly(both use the same bulbs). Mild rear wiretuck. Removed SRS system (everything)
POWERTRAIN: Stock D16Y7 motor/trans. 138k miles. Tanabe Stainless B-Pipe . Cusco Exhaust Hanger Bushings. Avid Racing Hard Billet Torque Mounts . Stainless Steel Clutch Line. Project Kics Magnetic Oil Drain Bolt . Clutch and Brake Fluid Bled (Motul) . Re-grounded with 6G Wire. Relocated Fuse Box (Under Glovebox).

This car is 100% rust free, and is as nice as you will be able to find. Cosmetically, only a couple dings, primarily on the hood. Overall though, great shape. It's an absolute Auto-X beast. Let me know if you have any questions.

When did GhettoSi sell this car?
I miss this car a lot, except for the gutted interior. Even with the SOHC I was faster than a couple of EVO's and an STI at the only autocross I did in it before selling it. It was definitely a beast.

I don't have any current pics of the car, but it looks the same as what it did then aside from what is mentioned above. Has black Rota Slips on it so it looks very similar to what it did with the Spoons on it.
Any other questions?

Car is the exact same except it no longer has the Spoon N1, has a Personal wheel instead of a Nardi, has 96-98 taillights, no rollcage, has tow hooks on front and back, stock ek seats, and has amber gauges/climate control with tach.

I was just trying to get a read on where the car has been and how it looks now since I sold it.

Hahaha I know what the car does and doesn't have. GhettoSi bought the car off of me and I'm assuming he sold it to you. Or it changed hands a few more times before you bought it.
