There have might have been some things I have missed related to the drivetrain portion of this build, but I do have all accompanying receipts.
Exterior:
Sideskirts, F/R bumpers, & rear decklid all repainted in 2014 due to fading clear from sitting in Florida sun. Work Performed by Pro-tech Collision in Stafford, VA. Minor paint blemishes to be found in the photos include marks on both driver side doors, hood, and passenger rear door.
Rear fender lips were rolled in June 2021 when MT ET Street tires were installed.
17” CCW Classic Wheels purchased in 2013 and centers powder-coated a Lamborghini Grigio Telesto grey by Detective Coatings in Richmond, VA. Wheels were reassembled with new ARP hardware from CCW, new center caps with new gaskets. Front tires are Dunlop Direzza in 225/40/17 and rears are brand-new Toyo R888 in 245/40/17.
Bilstein Sport Struts All Around with Factory Springs (w/ 15mm OEM BMW spring pads in rear to provide additional tire clearance). OEM Rear Trailing Arm Bushings w/Rogue Engineering RTAB limiter kit installed in 2016.
All windows (excluding windshield) were tinted with a ~35% tint prior to my ownership.
New OEM Door Mouldings and custom “2JZ M3” badges installed May of 2021.
Interior:
Dove Grey “Vader” front seats adapted and installed from an M3 coupe
VAC fire extinguisher mount installed with 2.5lb Halon bottle at driver’s feet.
Pioneer X6600BT Bluetooth HeadUnit installed Spring of 2013.
Replacement front and rear door panels and rear seats installed in Spring of 2014. These show wear, but overall very clean as pictured.
New OEM 5-Speed ZHP-Style weighed shift knob installed in Spring of 2014.
The acceleration offered by this car is breath-taking. I am still astounded by how absurdly fast it is and how quickly it comes into boost. I’ve never performed a 60-130 speed test but would guesstimate mid 5 second range with the traction afforded by the Drag Radials.
This is the epitome of a “sleeper sedan”, always draws fantastic excitement at Cars and Coffee, and yet can be driven comfortably for hours on end. As you can tell, this car has been owned with a complete open checkbook and the $75k+ invested in car + upgrades is a testament to that.
All components for air conditioning are installed and system is functional, but needs to be wired to the ecu to work correctly with factory controls
Tach signal doesn’t not pick up due to aftermarket coil setu.
