Right this really is just to see what my options are as im not really bothered for selling but if it sells it sells. If not i'll keep it and be a happy man. I dont need to sell but at the moment im only doing motoway miles and in my eyes is a waste for this car.
The car has a long MOT (runs out 9/11/2010) and tax untill the end of April
Just passed the MOT with flying colours
It comes with 2 keys, 2 fobs and the master fob
A bit about the car
I bought this car from a SXOC member Crazymofo (Greg, im sure a few of you know him) 2 years ago. He had the car 7 years and i am the 3rd ower. Its a non-touring model so has benifits like not had side skirts on all its life and smooth front bumper (no headlight washers). Now its pretty much a touring spec. Its got aircon, 10 disk CD boot changer, S15 leather (so even better than 14a touring) and the side skirts. Only thing it doesnt have is the passenger airbag. It has covered around 124k miles which on a well looked after SR like this one is nothing as most people will know on this forum.
I am confident the engine will go on forever to come. It pulls great, no unusual noises, doesnt use water or oil. It does have a slight VVT rattle but only on warm start which is very minor (not many SR's dont). I have covered 15k miles in this car and it has been the most reliable car i have ever owned. The speedo is only reading 117k due to the other one getting KPH dials instead of MPH when the previous owner sent it off for lockwood dials, so it reads 8k miles out. The engine has always had Silkolene and changed every 6k.
I have FSH untill around 90k 2004 (15 stamps) Since then it has been serviced by myself and the previous owner
The Gearbox was replaced 20k miles ago with a lower milage one (its covered 80k now).
It has also been waxed atleast twice a month with Lime prime, dodo juice and collinite 915 for that extra protection and washed at least once a week.
This is a very capable fast road car. In the right hands it will put modern 'fast' road cars to shame. Its feels nice and tight with no body roll and the suspension yet nice a firm doesnt feel stiff and bounce the car around like some coilovers seem to do. So is still a nice comfortable daily drive aswell as a fast back road blast.
I have never taken it to a track day or drift day but I am positive it would be a storm on the track. Kind of regret not doing his now

I'm sure there are more mods but I can't think what right now.
I also have a full set of PROJECT MU front and rear brake pads brand new that i will throw in and 4 litres of Silkolene oil to sweeten the deal!
As with everycar of this age there is the little niggles.
There are the odd paint imperfections and some car park dings as to be expected from a car this age/milleage but she's in great condition overall.
The washer motor for the front windscreen connection corroded so now the front windscreen washers is on the rear pump. But i do have a spare pump in my bedroom, just not got round to fitting.
2 of the alloys have curb rash
I got the front end resprayed due to stone chips but the bonnet isnt the best finish. Looks fine day to day (as you can see in the pictures) but when you get close you can see. Probably could do with been flattened off again and polished up. In time i was going to get a carbon bonnet so this has never really bothered me (just dont want any hidden suprises if someone comes and views)
