Car got a bit of body damage and a bent rear control arm for which I have a replacement, at the year-end event. For this the price has dropped to $9k. If it's not sold by mid-november I will begin stripping and parting it out.
This car has served me well for two drift seasons, but priorities are changing and I need to narrow down my racing activities. The GTO is a blast to drive, not to mention quite easy to handle. This video here is the first time I ever drove the car back in May 2010. I just jumped in and was laying down solid runs by midway through the practice.

Specs:
Make: 2004 Pontiac GTO
Engine: LS1 5.7-litre V8 ~420hp
Transmission: 6-speed T56
Differential: Kaaz 2-way, still locks hard
Clutch: Bully Stage 5 (still grabs hard, but Bully is a Canadian company and would likely be willing to sponsor new owner)
Exhaust: Kooks longtube headers, Magnaflow 2 3/4" dual mandrel bent exhaust with turndown tips (I just ran it straight out of the X-pipe. Best sounding car in DMCC West)
Intake: K&N FIPK
Engine mods:
-remote oil filter mount
-LS2 injectors
-custom tune for more power out of intake/exhaust/injector changes
- self exciting 1-wire alternator
- power steering cooler
- oil cooler
- Accusump engine pre-oiler/safety system
- BeCool aluminum radiator (about 20-25 hours use on this new rad)
- Driveshaft Shop 700 hp axles and 900 hp aluminum driveshaft
Suspension & wheels:
-K-Sport drift-spec coilovers (custom rears made using S14 units)
- Custom drift spindles (increased steering angle)
- Custom steering rack/tie rods (even more steering angle)
- Wilwood slotted rotors
- Wilwood front brake calipers
- Steel braided brake lines
- 10 ROH Drift-R rear wheels, 18"x10" (will mount decent used rubber on all of the wheels)
- 2 ROH Drift-R front wheels, 18"x9.5" (245/40R18 Falken Azenis 615s mounted on them
- 1 set of 17x8.5 BMW wheels (good for finding cheaper rubber for practices)
- 1 set of 18x8.5 BMW AC Schnitzer replica wheels
Interior:
- Rollcage by Canadian Customs
- driver window net
- Hydraulic e-brake setup
- Oil temp/pressure, water temp gauges
- Big ass tach
- Racing fuel cell in trunk
- Aeromotive fuel pump and filter with stainless braided lines and AN fittings
- Kirkey oval track seat can be included, both Sparco seat rails will stay with the car
- Fire extinguisher
- Momo racing steering wheel with quick release
Body:
- RKsport front bumper, side skirts & hood (1 spare unpainted RKsport front bumper included)
- Rhys Millen Racing fiberglass 1/4" flare front fenders
- Origin Labs +50mm rear overfenders (bit of damage, could be repaired or replaced)
- Stock 2004 rear bumper
- Some rear body dents. Cleanest fix is to cut out stock trunk floor and replace with new sheet metal. Would cost under $100 in metal and welding supplies (damage does not impede driveability)
- Big ass drift-style rear spoiler
- Lexan windshield & rear window
- Custom front "crash bar"
- Weight saving measures taken throughout the car
Spares:
- Control arms
- tie rods
- shorter rear-end gears (4.10 I believe)
- a whole bunch of other stuff I need to go through
Price: $9,000.

Inside video qualifying second during the final event of the year. This car can definitely be competitive.
