CA (Bay Area) - 2005 Legacy GT for many performance parts / or fixxer upper


Recommended Posts

3 weeks ago, my LGT started making really bad noises from the drivetrain - I had been running a flat tire without noticing it for 2-3 days, and I think that did it in. Very bad clunking noises, I think either from center or rear diff. With some combination of diff / driveshaft / transmission, could maybe be fixable, but has some other "annoying" issues like the HVAC actuators being noisy, CD player dying, etc.

 

Engine was running strong. Burnt some oil, as is normal, but was pulling quite nicely - has a bnr16g (one of the originals in the vf40 housing, so you can leave it in for SMOG!).

 

I'm swamped at work, and I don't have a ton of time to pull parts, so I'm offering this first as a "buy everything" special for locals - way below the price of buying everything separately. That way, if you want a good deal on performance parts or other stuff, and you have the time, today's your lucky day. I just need to clear up space, etc.

 

If it doesn't sell in a week or two, I'm going to pull the easy parts and sell those separately, and then have a wrecker haul it away. I'm going to list the estimated price for various parts that I would pull off the car to sell with a "quick sale price", just so you see where I am getting my price from - THESE ESTIMATES DO NOT INCLUDE SHIPPING. If I list the price as (-), then I don't plan on pulling the part or not worth selling, so it's a "bonus" part. Whether that means anything is up to you - I just want to list everything that's been done to the car.

 

OK... Just those prices add up to ~$4500, give or take. I'm sure I'm way overestimating my prices. So let's cut 33% off. $3000 OBRO takes everything, you arrange for transportation (car will need to be towed). That's not even counting the engine, etc.

Edit: Rotas sold, price can be adjusted some.. (sale of everything currently pending)

 

 

VIN: 4s3bp676354332564

 

Car as it sits has the following parts on it:

bnr16g, 80k miles, never had a problem. In OEM VF40 housing ($300)

Infamous Performance and Tuning Oil Line kit. No longer made. ($100)

dw650cc sidefeed injectors, may need a cleaning ($150)

RCE T1 Tarmacs. Only the rears on the car right now, fronts were trying to get a dust cover on them that had worn out. Stripped the top nut a bit on one - KW will rebuild/revalve/whatever. But should also be fine for driving as is. Need to be adjusted/levelled. ($600)

 

OEM wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 225/45/17 - barely run (see other set of tires later - those were what was mostly driven), one or two have a patch due to nails, so not for track, but auto-x or other daily should be great. Probably 7-8/32s tread left. Great tires. ($400)

 

OEM wheel + Pilot A/S 225-45x17 as full-size spare. ($50)

 

Brakes: Wilwood front caliper upgrade. Comes with extra set of brackets. R4-S pads, Wilwood "B" pads, rears are currently R4-S. Includes 3mm spacers for the front to clear OEM wheels. Cryo Centric OEM rotors.Front SS brakes lines ($300)

Free Range Racing full silicone hose replacement kit. Used one hose to replace the FPR line. Other than that, full kit + "I goofed" replacement hoses, so some extras, etc. All the documentation is there, etc. $125

(was > $200 new, no longer made).

 

Rear shock mounts + longer screws + spacers to fix "saggy butt" - never put on. ($50)

 

OEM springs + Koni shocks (the front set is on right now) - 70-80k miles. Pre-cut, so you could easily replace with new Konis, no need to cut OEM shocks. Still ok to drive for a while. ($250)

 

Another set of full OEM springs - someone threw these in when I bought his OEM wheels. Unknown mileage. Could be used for Konis. ($100?)

 

OEM sways - free?

 

Rota wheels, 17x8.5, fit fine without spacers. More Pilot Super Sports on them in 225/45-17. Can mix-and-match with the others. One tire totally dead due to driving on it while flat. So 7 Super Sports total. Wheels have curb rash and a bit beat up, but hold air, etc. ==> SOLD!

I wasn't planning on making a list of "dibs" yet, but I guess you can be first on there.. However, just be aware that if someone comes along and says "I'll take all of it", they'll get first crack at everything, even things with "dibs"..

I wish I had more time, I'd take the whole thing. Not that I'm of help to you. Transportation up here would be 500-900.

 

 

We could go half/half? :lol:

Don't send it to wrecker! This wagon is worth saving. Sell the whole thing as is.

 

That's what this post is for - everything for $3000. Who's up for it? Someone in OR want to go halfsies with Boxkita? :lol:

 

There's at least $4-5k of "used pricing" parts in there, even if there is some overlap. If I add up what I paid for these parts.. I don't even want to think about it.. Over $2k in the last 3 years just for the Hexmods F1, RCE Tarmacs and Wilwoods.

 

But I don't have a huge driveway or garage, new car is here, wife is looking for a new (3rd) car so she doesn't have to drive the minivan in the city all the time, etc.. Work is busy, time is money, I don't have a week to pull all the parts, hence the huge discount for taking everything.

Where in OR? I would consider buying it because I need a lot of the parts you listed.. especially if someone wanted to split it. Specifically:

 

Front and Rear Brakes (all of it), Turbo, Oil Feed, Hoses, Fuel Pump/Injectors, and probably one of the TMICs you have on there. Would pull parts myself if that helps.

 

And if that sale goes through and he is parting it out as well, I would be open to working with them if they are selling parts. Brakes , Fuel bits, and Turbo are the biggest points of interest as mine are getting to that replace point.

As I said - waiting for official DMV paperwork, and then I'll be mostly done with it.

 

 

I will probably have Avo inlet, Avo brackets, Freerange hoses, Nexus stuff, cubbypod and a few other miscellaneous items to sell in a couple of weeks, once everything gets settled. Work is so busy right now..

Yes, new home has been found - mechanic down the street who wanted it as a personal car.. He brought cash, towed it a few days later, haven't heard from him since.. Need to check paperwork eventually :-)

 

 

Kept a few parts to supplement reduced sale price :-)

 

 

Here's what's left. I think this is mostly it, except for a few popits, etc.

 

 

 

-Free Range Racing hoses (missing one 3 or 4 mm hose I used for the FPR), includes the "updated" kit that re-did some hoses. $175 + ship.

 

 

 

-front right headlight. Definitely restoreable. $50 + ship.

 

 

 

-Avo Turbo inlet, NIB. $175 + ship.
