Hello,

Time has come to sell club spec model EVO 4, As some of you know I only purchased this car about 6 months ago but as finance is now allowing me to upgrade. I'm taking the opportunity to do so. I'd keep the car as I love the GC8 shape but taking a step back from my last car interior wise was quite a change and the girlfriend hates the car with a passion, so I'm looking at moving up into an 03 - 05 model STi or S15.

2000 Subaru Impreza WRX

Limited Addition Club spec EVO4

127,XXX KM

Rego till 5 AUG 2011

Location: Edithvale, Melbourne

$17,500 RWC included **Open to offers or swaps for S15 or 03+ STi plus cash your way....** (Based off car sales prices for EVO 4's and have spent more on servicing it with A1 fluids since purchased, detailing, and tasteful mods.)

- Extremly Tidy car, inside and out cleaned every weekend. (My cars my baby, hence why I'm on these forums !)

- Recently serviced, Oil and filters changed (5w50w Penrite Fully Synthetic)

- Fresh gearbox oil ready to put in (Penrite SIN + Nulon G80 can be organized before purchase)

Modifications:

  • Genuine HKS front mount intercooler, (painted black along with pipes)
  • Genuine 3" Apexi Cannon + custom turbo back system (nice rumble and no police worry I've noticed so far)
  • Turbosmart Boost Tee (Currently running stock boost, was installed as stock boost controller was having some problems so instead installed this to get a nice constant boost but set to stock and never boosted, was going to do aftermarket ecu and dyno before risking playing with the boost.)
  • K&N Airbox Filter (Re oiled, Cleaned, 2,000km ago)
  • Monza Type 2 Blow off Valve
  • 17" C28 **Copy's** (80%+ tread on all tyres)
  • Apexi Turbotimer
  • VIPER Car alarm system + pager (top of the market alarm system)
  • Pioneer Headunit + Alpine Type R splits, wires all pre-done (amp will be required to run splits, as I'm taking my sub + amp combo)
  • Autometer Boost gauge + Turbosmart Cup
  • Brand new Hi/Low H.I.D Kit installed, (500km)
  • Full STi body kit, wing, lip, etc.
  • EVO Rear Fins
  • All colour coded

Feel free to come check the car out it's extremely clean and no problems with it which is the reason I got it to start with, Not wanting to really sell it and in no rush to do so what so ever but I'm now in the position to get a 03 - 05 wrx sti or s15 which is what I was after originally and also a chance to get back in the good books with the girlfriend.

Best to call or sms to get a hold of me on

New brake pads have been put in and fully synthetic gearbox oil, if I get a chance the diff will also be done.

Car's not being neglected because I'm selling her its still being well looked after and serviced either I sell it or not isn't a huge issue, its meant to be if it doesn't sell.

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
