[m1tch]

Hi all,

This is not a drift car, but someone may want it on here, im selling my FC this summer, I havn't been able to drive it that much as its not being used as it should be as well as the fact that I am building a drag kart and basically moving away from road going modded cars etc.

The car has had everything welded underneath, but front and rear sills have been welded by Mazda main dealer, it does have a few small dings and scratches but the car isn't new and this is to be expected, paintwork is good for the age though and there is no rust around the sunroof.

I am not looking for any part ex, just cash, I am looking for around £4.5k ono, a lot of car for not much money, very easy to simply bolt on a larger turbo to get some very good power, ive got all the supporting mods ready for big power, I am however selling the car before I have gone for big power.

The car ran a 14.2 at Santa pod a few years back when it was standard, with a slipping clutch and boost leak, the engine was around 210bhp at that point, its now probably closer to 300bhp (safe max on the OEM turbo)

I am looking to sell later in the summer, I need to swap out the clutch for an Exedy stage 2 to make it more streetable as it doesn't need a 700bhp ORC clutch anymore!

Here are some initial photos, I will get some more up later this week, but it won't be for sale until the clutch and base map are sorted and im happy that everything is in order. The photos below were taken at various stages of the build up, I will sort out some complete photos very soon.

I have interest in this already, further photos will be taken this weekend if the weather holds.

Update on my car, its basically all ready for sale now, I have swapped the clutch over to an Exedy stage 2 clutch - streetable but grips and given it a quick clean.



21 year old paint is pretty good!




I will take some more photos over the weekend once it stops raining, this would be the perfect car for someone who is looking for some good power and wants a car to last rather, everything is solid and has all the supporting mods on the car to take a lot more power.

Make me an offer if you are interested

I have just taken some more photos of the car, it now has a good usable base map - plently of headroom for further tuning (running safely rich at the moment) and the clutch has been swapped to an Exedy stage 2 so its now ready for sale - let me know if you want any further details on the car, its all been sorted and it solid, just needs a new owner! I am happy to take offers on the car, it would be a perfect base for anyone to do tuning to as all the important parts such as the fueling and cooling are uprated and can easily be tuned with the e-manage ultimate - it can even tune itself with the use of the wideband O2.













Here are the 2 bits that need a tiny amount of attention, firstly a bit on the rear drivers side, seems 100% solid and has been there since I have had it without any issues.



Also a tiny bit of rust around where the OEM spoiler would have sat - ie under the spoiler mounts, they just need cleaning and touching up - cosmetic only but I want to be 100% honest with any bits that need touching up.

Hi there,

Ive advertised it at £4,500, however im open to offers, its got a lot of uprated kit on it, the fueling alone is worth around a grand lol pm me if you are interested or want to make me an offer on it, I would rather it used than sitting on the drive.

[m1tch]

Evening bump for my car, anyone going to make me an offer on it?
