2006 Evo RS

[Kuruma]

I am finally ready to sell this car. Its been a fun year, but the car is just not for me. I am going to get back into another S2000 or a used Porsche. I just really do not like boosted cars. So on to the sale.

2006 White Evolution IX RS
$20,000 OBO *******will consider all offers***********

Service History:
I am a certified Porsche Technician and I do all my own repairs, beside tuning(Forged). All maintaince items were replaced with OEM parts:
Timing belt and balance belt @ 30,000 miles
ALL fluids replaced@ 50,000 miles except brake fluid(waiting on lines)
regular oil changes with mobil synthetic and OEM filter
Drive belt bought last week, will be installed before sale

54,000 miles

Modifications-(Will include stock parts, unless I dont have them)
BR=Buschur Racing
Engine:
BR full hard pipes
BR larger intercooler
BR intake
BR mini battery kit
BR O2 housing
BR full 3" exhaust(magnaflow muffler)

HKS 272 cams (intake and exhaust)
Walbro 255 fuel pump
ARP head studs
Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator,(nice piece)
Halman manual boost controller
SMC methanol/water injection kit.(might be removed and re-tuned)
Tune:
Very conservative tune by Forged
21lbs of boost with Snow Performance Boost Juice kicking in at 16lbs. With the recent cold weather,cams, and summer tune the car occationally throws a CEL only at idle for system too lean.
Never has the light come on during an engine load. Also the car does have ARP head studs.
Interior:
Radio relocation kit with 3 gauge pods.
AEM EUGO sensor/gauge (brand new sensor,300 miles)
Unknown brand boost gauge
Greddy turbo timer
Eclipse head unit with some speakers( I am not an audio guy, talk radio)

BBS wheels
Shaved rear badges
Factory wingless
Suspension/handling:
Swift springs
Whiteline 24mm rear sway bar(adjustable, might part out)
Brand new DBA 4000 series slotted rotors front and rear
Brand new Hawk HP plus pads front and rear(very noisy cold,but stops are amazing!!)
Brand new still in box Goodridge SS brake lines

I know I probably forgot some things. I will add later when I remember.

GL Craig! Fair price.

[StrScrm]

Nice mod list!

GL with the sale

Whoever buys this is gonna be a lucky SOB

[bomjoon]

i love white ebos

wanna trade? then you can sell mine. :P

[em1toevo]

Such a beautiful and rare car! You don't see too many RS's on the road. I wanted one really bad but gave up on the search for a used one.

[Apex i ITR]

Nice car. Curious about not wanting to own a turbo car. Did you have bad experiences or something else.


I've been dying to buy an S2K for a daily driver.

[Kuruma]

IMO a turbo is just another thing that can cause a very expensive repair. Plus cost of maintaince is ridiculous, I also need a more practical DD. I worry too much about every little noise. Never had that with the S2000. I need peace of mind.

UPDATE TO ORGINAL POST*****

[MeFryRice]

Ah, I didn't know that was your car. I've ran into you a couple times at RA when I had my blue S2k (not sure if you remember or not).

[Chemwarrior]

You just bought that rear swaybar too. :D

[ljk1984]

Nice Rs GLWS!!

[blkonblk2red]

Nice Rs GLWS!!

+1 reminds me of yours! :-P

[ljk1984]

lol yea, if i had the money i'd def get this.

[WRC-LVR]

What intervals were the tranny, LSD and transfercase fluids changed at and what was used ??

Someone I know may be interested in the car.

Thx

I bought the car at 30k miles. In the 20k miles I owned it I changed the fluids at 50k, all OEM fluids.

[nomorevtec]

hate see you get rid off her man! Good luck with your sale and next car purchase!! Bump for another evo rs!!

[Kuruma]

Yeah, no car payment and cheaper insurance is very appealing. I miss my S, it's amazing how cheap they are now! The ones I am looking at are around $9-$11k!!! Gives me enough for a hardtop,exhaust,suspension, and wheels. With money to spare. It makes too much financial sense. Thanks everyone for the help so far!

Craig

********UPDATE TO ORGINAL POST ABOUT TUNE*****

[MeFryRice]

My insurance actually decreased with the Evo compared to the S2K. :)

[Kuruma]

My insurance actually decreased with the Evo compared to the S2K. :)

The Evo is not paid off, the S will be. That will open up some cheaper insurance options. Plus my insurance went up about $300 a year when I bought the Evo.

[bomjoon]

my insurance is a joke... its like a car payment.

i too thought about getting the S and sell my evo.

[em1toevo]

I need four doors to have room for the Mrs. and my son. An S does sound fun though.

[bomjoon]

^ your son can stay home.

s2000 ftw~!

[em1toevo]

Lol Joey, you try telling him that! He thinks the Evo will be his one day.

[mike.p]

would you be interested in selling a few things off the car??? i have stock stuff if you dont

[Kuruma]

I might sell the sway bar, brand new trans fluid, drive belt, SSbrake lines, I would like to sell as is.

[bomjoon]

Lol Joey, you try telling him that! He thinks the Evo will be his one day.

and it will be. its your son man. i would do anything for my son if he wanted something... well if i had a child that is. :P

[em1toevo]

I'd give my son anything...except an Evo for his 16th bday(which will be in the year 2021). IMHO, no 16 yr old is responsible enough to handle an Evo.

[Kuruma]

I drove an S2000 last night, I need to get rid of this car!!!!

[Evolvedgti]

Have you posted it elsewhere, maybe IA or Evoms. Most of us have evos. GL

[Kuruma]

I put it up on Craigslist and it was flagged in 20min!!

[Evolvedgti]

Why too low of a price?

[Chemwarrior]

Yeah, that's bullshit that it was flagged. It's a reasonable price.

[Kuruma]

Thanks guys. I just got a IA account last night and I will be putting it up there soon.

[scoobysam]

Just as an fyi, i posted mine on EvoM and got it sold. I did the opposite and and wanted another evo after having an s2000 for 5months. Too small and too slow...lol. Then again my bmw 330i is slow as hell..i miss my evo:(

glws

[Kuruma]

I will post on Evom. I can't access that site fully on iPhone.

[ultm8mind]

I'd give my son anything...except an Evo for his 16th bday(which will be in the year 2021). IMHO, no 16 yr old is responsible enough to handle an Evo.

X2, my son thinks he's getting mine too. Ummm, no.

Sam, now you want an Evo again huh, LOL.....

BigRic09 is looking for another Evo. I'll tell him about this one, he is looking to do his thing with it. Him and the Force Fed Crew in NC. He just got back from Korea and is on the look out for another one, I'll let him know.

[Kuruma]

Thanks that would be great!
