    Default FS/FT: Built '89 Turbo Colt GT

    Body/Interior is in very good condition.
    No oxidation etc. on paint...believe it'd shine pretty damn well with good buff/wax.
    Interior is very nice as well.
    This is absolutely one of the nicer original turbo Colts/Mirages you'll see.

    VIN: JP3CU54Z9KU128000
    Car is currently sitting at about 131k miles.

    Please contact by e-mail with offers or interest, [email protected]

    Seeing as I have to list a price I'll say something silly like $6k....which is actually a good bit less than what's in it. However, I'm not nuts. I don't expect to get that or anything close. I will absolutely entertain all offers and accept anything slightly appealing. I have lost interest in it and want it gone, I'm motivated to be done with it.

    Willing to trade for a complete fun car of similar value, a decent DD truck or car, or a motorcycle. Feel free to e-mail with whatever offers you have.

    Modifications and such...
    Parts below have absolutely zero miles...

    Forced Performance 68HTA Turbo
    Brian Crower 280/280 Cams
    Brian Crower Adjustable Cam Gears
    Brian Crower Titanium Retainers
    Tomei Valve Springs
    ARP Head Studs
    AEM Tru-Boost Electronic Gauge/Controller, Part 30-4350
    DSMChips Chip for 880s
    FMIC Piping, mostly complete. No core.
    Forced Performance 255lph Fuel Pump
    ACT 2600 Clutch
    ACT Flywheel
    Little 3 gauge set-up that mounts nicely in center console with oil pressure, voltage, and water temperature.
    Drag Specialties Wheels with BFG Drag Radials in front and Kumhos in rear.
    TRE Rip Grip Limited Slip Insert in differential
    NGK Plugs/Wires
    Vibrant 3" Muffler

    Used Stuff Below for the car...

    2G MAF w/ K&N Filter, Dejon Pipe and New DSMChips Plug-n-Play Harness
    Apexi S-AFC 2
    Adjustable FPR that goes directly on the fuel rail.
    One of those "low mileage JDM engines" 2.0L 4G63T
    Cyclone Intake Manifold with actuator/butterflies removed, also have one with them still on it if you like that.
    Also have two stock turbos, exhaust manifolds, o2 housings, stock DP/exhaust if someone wants to make it pretty much stock with a 2.0L and sell off parts for profit.

    The car also has new front wheel bearings, CV axles, and brake pads with freshly turned rotors. Has new water pump, thermostat, all new gaskets/seals on the motor including head gasket but not rear main. All belts are new, also has new valve stem seals. Head is very slightly ported.

    I also have a gigantic collection of both 1.6 and 2.0 brackets, pulleys, random parts, manifolds, o2 housings..any bit of it can come with the car if you want it. BUT, I won't force my pile of parts on anyone who wants the car.

    What it needs to run with big boy set-up...
    Turbo back to muffler exhaust set-up.
    Slim Fans
    Injectors as I just sold the 880s in the part-out.
    Have ECU converted to eprom to use the chip or get an eprom ECU or use
    DSMLink, whatever?
    Finish FMIC Piping; Get new J-Pipe (cut it, rotate it, reweld to work with pipe routing), flare or weld bead on two cut pipes to avoid couplers popping off under boost.
    Good BOV....although I do have the stock one which I might think would work decently if crushed like a 1G DSM BOV.
    Wire gauges, boost control.

    What it needs to run stock-ish...
    Swap cams.
    Put stock injectors back in, stock turbo to TB piping, sell off lots of stuff and profit.

    Why I'm selling....
    I got the car 100% stock running great with the 1.6L Turbo motor, pulled it for a 2.0, and started the project a few months ago and for various reasons I ran out of funds to finish it the way I wanted and won't have the funds to do it any time soon. I'm also big on just not doing a car set-up if I can't complete it the way I want. I don't have time to finish it either, started a new job Monday and am moving this Saturday and really don't want to have to worry about a storing it somewhere while I complete it or convert it back to stock to complete a part-out or finishing it the fun stuff.

    This car would be a great deal for someone who wants to complete it and enjoy it for way under what it would cost to do it yourself or someone that wants to turn it back closer to stock and sell parts to make a profit.

    A few pics below, e-mail if you want any more specific pics and I can send them through my phone pretty quickly.





    Edit 7/4/10. No longer comes with FMIC core.

    This could be a great deal.......Did you put this whole thing on GADSM, or just the part out thread?

    if my 88 aw11 fails to sell this week, would you be interested? Pictures are on my thread in the old school rides section. It runs and drives, but needs tweaking here and there.
