I know someone that stored an ST205 Celica for 2 years for an American, but then that's a car that's not available down there at all.

guy is probably expecting well over 20k for his blue smoke example

Just saw this on CL.

https://vancouver.craigslist.org/van...959674317.html

Ad says 5x100 but the sticker on the rim shows 5x114.3.

Perfect ITR fitment if they are 5x114.3

Thats a steal

I was wondering about those as well. Not sure why it says 5x100 and in the body?

Great track wheels.

I think it goes with volk racing too. Stamped 5x100 on lip and decals say 5x114.3

A lot of wheels use the same mold for their wheels and the only difference is the holes that are drilled into the wheels.

I know some wheels are stamped 4x100 and 5x100 and then the sellers post that on their ads while you can see dual 5 bolt patters in the wheels.

Quite funny seeing for sale posts where they say dual 4x100 and 5x100 bolt patterns.

So are those 5x100 or 5x144.3?

There's americans who are buying R34s already and storing it till they can import lol.

I can kind of understand that, a proper and rare-spec R34 is a pretty high end and expensive car.

I'm gonna take a look at the wheels tonight and will report back.

Just don't be surprised they are on my car. FailFish

Sick deal if they're the correct bolt pattern

Didn't get to see the wheels.
Owner messaged me to say they were sold.

Hopefully they are going to someone here.

I ended up buying this for $7k after taxes.

No rust, no prior damage, and the engine ran strong. Came with some Spoon parts installed (including a Spoon ECU) and an exedy hyper single series clutch.
96’ spec JDM ITR.

Tossed in the proper seats and some other interior goodies.
Changed the timing belt/water pump/seals, motor mounts, upper strut bar, installed Tein flex-z’s (looking at getting EDFC Active-Pro), added 16x7 Enkei EDR9’s with firehawk indy 500’s, swapped out the whale penis intake for gruppe m, replaced the clutch/flywheel, added the type-r spoiler and some badges.

She's sitting at around 121k km now. I put her away early this season so I could get some more work done on her. I fixed the rear bumper sag btw.

Engine bay needs some tidying up. A few rusted bolts and some other odds and ends. Repainting the valve cover soon, followed by some work on the body and the wiring. Will eventually get around to a new exhaust setup.

Planning on returning her to champ white once I save up the funds. It's gonna be a long road to get her where I want her but it's been a fun project so far and she hasn't let me down.

USDM front end will be staying for the foreseeable future, sorry folks.

nice! a rhd ITR with a 97 usdm front end is pretty neat

:pokerface:

What am I looking at here?

Just my recent service at Honda :-P

whoa batman
that orange with black recaro and wing/wheels actually looks quite exotic
i would double down and paint the jams/engine bay in orange to complete it
def put back the jdm front though!

I like that orange paint too.
I'd definitely say leave it that color.

Speaking of which, I saw the infamous Mugen Blue ITR parked in east Van the other day.
Been so long since I've seen that car.

The service guy is pretty happy

yeah, better check the seats for funny white stains. :fuckyea:

I don't know why but I kept thinking the in picture was a camera out the back and thought "he just reversed out of that bay pretty quickly" lol

Didn't it get sold to someone in Alberta , I guess it's back

The paint job was actually pretty high quality and the jams are already done. Painting the engine bay never crossed my mind but I like that idea. Currently when I pop the hood the car looks like a creamsicle.

It's been a love/hate relationship with the orange, it draws a lot of attention but it looks good. I think a JDM front would make it pop even more. I'll have to put some thought into that. Keep the orange and add a JDM front, or keep the USDM front and paint the car white hmm...
