    It is with mixed emotion that I putting my rally car up for sale, due to some financial changes in my life, I think its better I just try and sell the car, and hopefully later in life start a new project... so here are the details...

    This is a built Open car, but have made some slight modification to run it as Open Light

    Currently the car is setup and running as Open Light, but it can easily be converted back to Open (just need to put the turbo back in and a few supporting parts like intercooler, exhaust, then retune). So great car to get started in and then bump up to full Open without much fuss. If you want it as Open then let me know I could get it swapped back over pretty quickly

    GC8 setup 04 sti engine and trans swapped. Car originally built/ maintained by gram Evans. Rally America log book cage. RSSP coil over set up. Currently the paint is just a plati dip white. More details pm me. Or just ask.

    Has everything you need to race! We just ran it as Open Light this summer at Headwaters.

    Group n brakes 4 pot front 2 pot rears.
    RSSP by Baratec coil over set up very nice suspension
    Alfa pro rally ODO computer
    Full rally America log booked cage
    TILTON Duel brake cylinder set up for front and rears
    Sparco seats
    Hydraulic hand brake
    Light pod (no lights though)
    Peltor intercom
    Compomotive wheels

    Has some spares I could wrangle together. extra Compomotive wheels, Sways, control arms, hubs, lights, starter, alternator, steering rack, doors, NA intake piping, ARP Bolts, Cusco LSD, Enki Rims, some other stuff id have to dig up

    Located in Minneapolis asking $12500 OBO,

    Sorry to hear that! Holy crap that seems like a good price given the parts, never mind the amount of labor that went into building it... If anyone wants to get into rallying they would save so much money and blood/sweat/tears by starting out with this instead of from scratch!

    Shoot man, that's a great setup - if you have any interest in parting with the drivetrain (engine and trans) and the passenger seat I would be seriously interested in that and you could sell the shell as a rally built shell. I have no interest in the car as a whole (as great as it is) but if you don't get any biters let me know if you consider my offer.

    Ill PM you JUST IN CASE
