Hi all,

Unfortunately, its come time to put my 2001 EVO 7 up for sale

This car has been my daily driver for over a year now, and has been one of the most reliable and enjoyable cars I have ever had the pleasure of owning. The car was sourced to order for me in Japan, then subsequently imported by Just Jap Auto Imports in Sydney, who have also been responsible for all preventative maintenance, modification and scheduled servicing since it arrived. The car was purchased as an auction grade 4B with 64,000 km's and in the time that I have owned it, the car has covered a mere 6,000 km's as I don't require a car during the week thanks to public transport :)

With the exception of the bodykit and suspension, all other modifications and components have been purchased and installed brand new within the space of the last 12 months. The car has been religiously serviced, and had a huge amount of preventative maintenance performed at my request to ensure absolute reliability, including a full 100k service with new Timing Belt, Cam Seals & Iridium Spark Plugs.

Modifications have been limited to only the best quality in bolt-on upgrades, to retain un-compromised drivability for daily use. No boost controller has ever been used, maintaining standard boost levels at all times, and both the turbocharger and ECU are standard, yet the car is still extremely fast, incredibly responsive, and handles like its on rails!

The Alpine & AVI Stereo was supplied and professionally installed by Metrosound on the North Shore in Sydney.

The car has seen one driver training day at Oran Park only, and has never been drag raced. It has no accident history, an arrow straight body, and has always been securely garaged.

Vehicle Specifications:

- 2001 Build

- 70,000 Km's

- NSW Rego Till December 2010

- Auction Grade 4B

- Factory Silver

Modifications:

- Genuine C-West Bodykit

- Genuine Karbonetic Carbon Fibre Trunk

- HID Kit

- HKS Super Suction Intake Kit

- HKS Air Filter

- HPI Intercooler Kit

- HPI Stainless Turbine Outlet Pipe

- HPI Stainless Front Pipe

- Catco Metal Cat (3")

- Kakimoto Regu 06&R Stainless Cat Back Exhaust

- Cooling-Pro Larger Alloy Radiator

- HPI Braided Brake Lines

- DBA 4000 Series Slotted & Vented Rotors (Front & Rear)

- Project Mu Heavy Duty Brake Pads (Front & Rear)

- Motul RBF 600 Brake Fluid

- Tein Circuit Master Type Flex Coilovers

- Rays RE30 Limited Edition Forged Racing Wheels (18 x 8.5")

- Yokohama Advan A13 Rubber (245/40/18)

- Blitz Turbo Timer

- Alpine Digital Media Head Unit (Including iPhone/iPod/USB Connection)

- AVI Front Splits

- AVI Rear Speakers

- Factory EVO Mats (Front & Rear)

- Tinted Windows

A quick glance at the above list quickly shows that I have added over $13,000 worth of modifications and components to the car since purchase, and that does not include servicing!

Now to my reason for sale? Pretty simple really.

I have recently purchased another GTR and unfortunately this means I must retire the EVO and replace it with a more corporate friendly car for work purposes. You will be truely hard pressed to find a more practical or complete performance package.

The car is owned outright, with no finance or money owing of any kind.

Always the way isn't it :/

Sadly I really need this gone now, I have too many cars and not enough room, and the evo needs to be retired for a more appropriate car for work.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
