You ruined that R1 by installing Evo seats and an automatic. You saved it by installing a proper motor.

Evo seats were free and much better than the stock ones.

Trust me I do NOT like automatics, although this blows up a Tranzilla T56 in 2 hours so definitely not worth the $12,000 aggravation of swapping tranny's every couple of hours. The Turbo 400 is not bad, you have to manually shift it in every gear and has held up... but still not as fun as a clutch with 6 gears. Not like 3 gears even matter, I normally always just keep it in 3rd, hit the gas and in 1 second the tires are already at 130mph and shooting flames off rev limiter while the cars not really going anywhere when it's paving the asphalt with rubber and creating clouds.

If I were to do it all over again, I would definitely go with less power and a built T56. When I drove your LS1 RX7 I was surprised that it didn't spin tire, even in 1st gear (unless you dumped the clutch) so swapping a stock V8 into it was not my intensions, I wanted something more.

HERSH...i have to ask.

if this doesnt sell...is there any chance it may make it to WBM this year? i can imagine there would be so much attention, and more eyes for potential buyers?

edit: oh, and we cant forget the exhaust competition!

I'm pretty sure exhaust competition would be no competition with this car although I think it's only open to Subaru's?

LOL at this post from March because the exhaust competition ended up being held in the parking lot.

Still amazes and makes me want it. Unfortunately I need fewer ways to kill myself and looking for another track bike already isn't helping

I have 9 people scheduled to come tomorrow when I get back from NH to check it out. Just want everyone to remember my price is Firm which means I will not budge a dollar. No one will drive the car until I'm paid in full, I will gladly provide a ride when money is presented.
If anyone wants to jump on the bandwagon and show up tomorrow let me know.

I'm pretty sure you can buy absolutely everything you need for the swap. Its been done so many times that unless you plan on doing something overly complicated and over the top, there shouldn't be any major surprises or complications.

How are your encounters with police in NH with this? They used to pull me over all the time for less than 1/4 of the mayhem than this thing is capable of.
