Price drop to 6500FIRM

Hey

I imported this car about a month ago, however I got burnt on the deal. It was suppose to be a "smooth runner in excellent mechanical condition" but I received a car with no compression in 2 chambers of the rear rotor.(the car still runs however it is blowing blue smoke out of the exaust, and is lacking power)

The car is yellow in color with a minor paintchip on the rear bumper,

it has a mazda speed front bumper with frontflush fog lights, AVS rims, hks piping, hks intake, momo steering wheel, blitz boost guage, oil temp, water temp, mounted on the passenger side in the dash, as well as a apexi boost guage on the corner of the dash.

The interior of this car is absolutely mint.

I am asking $8500 Firm for this car. I think this is a pretty fair deal as Most LANDED jdm FD's are going for about 12-15grand and they will eventually require a rebuild anyways.

I wouldn't mind keeping this car and rebuilding it, however I am to tall to fit comfortably in it.

If you decide to part, of if the new owner doesn't like that ms front fascia, i'd be happy to make an offer on it.

[gorilla*goggles]

[\JCAR/]

if you decide to part i'll take a boost gauge

[avow]

who did you import it from? jdmconnection?

For the OP, heres a trick you may wanna try, as you may not necissarily have blown apex seals. SOMETIMES, if it sits for a longggg time, the apex seal will "stick" or bind in teh groove. So heres a trick you can try, may work, may not. Take a container of Automatic Tranny Fluid, doesnt matter brand, whatever you want. Take a vacuum hose off, put it in the container, extend the vacuum line if you need to. let it suck up the atf and use your hand on the throttle butterfly to keep it running, its gonna smoke like a motherfucker, but it may unstick the seal. Ive done it once, and it did what it was supposed to, and i ran that motor for 40,000km after that, between me and my friend. He bought it from an importer and it just came with weak to no compression on the back rotor. Ran like ass, but after this treatment, purred like a kitten.


good luck.

All Pm's replied,

Sorry not looking to part yet.

km are 106 000

I did not import from jdmconnection, however I wish I had as they probably would have helped me out

ca18det240sx- Thanks for the tip, Much appreciated, I will give this a try. Is their a chance of damaging the motor further if this does not work?

Thanks

[ca18det240sx]

Nope, im guessing the reason why the ATF works so well is its sooo slick, so it lubes the apex seal. rx7 specialties actually covers his parts in ATF as he assembles his engines, so that when hes done, its coming out of the ports. Works very well, believe me, when we did the engine i had, the back part just listening with teh plug out was chuff,chuff, nothing, ran like total ass, shook like crazy. ATF treatment, lots and lots of smoke, i mean do it outside....and tell your neighbors lol, so they dont call the fire department, but yah, after the treatment, engine ran solid for 50,000k before i sold the car.
Its also listed on rx7club.com as atf trick.

let me know what happens, very interested to know.

Cool thanks,

Also was your engine blowing blue smoke out of the exhaust before the treatment?

[importracer]

Need it gone soon....

PRICE DROP, 6500 FIRM need it gone ASAP

[jmeriel]

mmmm interested...but how much am i looking at to get the engine rebuilt...(fix the problem/s)

[ca18det240sx]

at Rx7 specialties, about 3000$ for a rebuilt stocker...maybe less, not more tho im pretty sure. That would be including R&R. Call him and find out. I wouldnt normally reccomend him, but he can build a decent engine, and hes pretty much the only one...theres a few locals but i cant say good or bad about their work because ive never seen it?

[importracer]

Thanks ca18det240sx,

Also I have not experimented with your suggestion yet, but I will recommend it to whoever purchases it

[GQBalla]

is the car registered in AB? and has oop been done?

[importracer]

Has not been registered or insured as I received the car like this, Its been sitting in my garage since

[importracer]

No one wants a project FD?

[FatalError]

What kinds of engine swaps can be done on something like this?
