FS modded 05 sti w/ blown motor, cheap
Ok well I'm having horrible luck so I need to do this now unfortunately. Sorry for the long read but I need to be completely honest w/ all the information I know for a buyer. Located in Mass. Asking $19,000 obo - need to sell asap, anything reasonable won't be turned down. Keep in mind that KBB on this car is $23,000 I can trailer it upto like 250 miles to you
The car is an 05 sti that has 30k miles on the car, 2k miles on the transmission, & 23k miles on the axis motor.I have included all known information I can think of and also a full mod list. It's an axis stg.2 motor that I guess is running on 3 cylinders. No idea how, it's been running alright but now feels like it's struggling and like it's on 3 cylinders, it's at subaru right now and will have it back tomorrow. They're going to check it out and let me know the exact problem but I just don't have the money to cover this. I know the car will be great for a new owner but I have horrible luck and no longer have $ It just had the transmission replaced with a transmission with 2k miles on it that shifts perfectly (I can include the receipt for the work from subaru with sale). The car has a lot of work to it inside & out and will be a great car with just a little work to it. I know to fix the motor would be probably $2k or so or less, or to replace you can find motors for $3k-$5k depending on miles and what not. The newer paint job was done only because I wanted to change the color from the too common WRB, that's the only reason please don't post any bs saying you don't believe me or stupid questions. That's the 1 and only reason for a paint job, it's Lamborghini Balloon White (pearl white), the wheels are a custom candy color w/ red base & pink/white pearl - cleared. I need it sold asap, I'll come up with the difference somehow to get the title, it's a clear title never been in an accident or anything.(you can carfax it if you don't believe me) The amount of $ into this car is rediculous now including price of mods and the work.

I know, thats an old post thats why I made this new one. Like I stated right in the main post I'm having horrible luck these last couple days. There is nothing else wrong with the car I can guarantee it, I can put it in writing and everything that the only other problem now is the motor. Other than that it's fine, I know it is. I just can't afford it. Please don't try ruining my thread.

one more thing... Why is it that when I see people go to axis or just a built motor in general, it blows? Im not saying they all do, but there is definately a higher percentage than stock sti motors it seems

Well found out some good news, the motors not blown. thank god. they figured it out.. compression test was perfect across all 4. The main harness isn't giving a good signal to 2 injectors at times so sometimes it would go on 3 or 2 cylinders. It is being fixed at subaru in about 1 or 2 days and will be all set after that. The receipts for any recent work will be included in the sale for proof.
