    Sold..



    Yo dudes...


    Selling my Altezza, not had her long, she'd been sat up for a while, iv fixed it up and it's pretty much ready to rock.. Wanted to keep it as a daily driver but I need an estate, so want an IS300 Sportcross..

    Iv done several bits since picking it up.. Before I started the engine I dropped the old oil and refilled 5L new 10/40 oil, it started first time.. I then dropped the oil again and fitted new filter and Castrol GTX 5/40 Fully Synthetic.
    I also put new brake discs up front, and one new caliper as old one siezed.
    Took it for an Mot Friday 21st feb so it has a years ticket, I will also tax the car for 6 months if the full asking price is achieved.


    Spec list as follows..

    Engine:
    -3SGE Beams Black Top - 6 Speed Manual - 44k Kms(according to the instrument cluster which was fitted when in Japan as its all still in Kms. I don't know if the instrument cluster was factory fitted or fitted sometime after)
    -TRD Short Shift
    -TRD Engine Mounts
    -HKS RS Hard Intake System & HKS Mushroom Filter
    -Billion Rad Hoses & Coupling for temp sensor
    -Carbing Cooling Panel
    -Stainless Exhaust Manifold, 4 into 2, 2 downpipes which joint in middle of car. Centre Section. Straight pipe. Japanese plaque on some sections of exhaust, havnt noticed a brand. It's not 'custom'.. It's a proper JDM system.. Very loud, sounds like a racecar..
    (possibly a paddle clutch & lightweight flywheel.. Revs up quick and has a bitey clutch.. I havnt split it so don't know though..)
    -LSD unknown whether this is OEM or aftermarket.
    -New Bosch Battery

    Chassis:
    -HKS HyperMax Coilovers
    -Toms Front Chassis Brace
    -Advan SA3R Wheels 17x7 et38 Front - 16x8 et38 Rear - Yes that's correct.. BecauseRaceCar.. Iv seen this before, makes it go round a track quicker.. Brand New NS-20 Tires on front.
    I have a pair of Sparco Racing wheels in 17x9 if you want a pair of 17s on the rear. I'll swap them for the 16" Advans, or you can pay an extra £150 and take them aswell as the Advans.

    Exterior:
    -Carbon Bonnet, 95% of the laquer has gone, give it a few months and it'll all be gone and look good again as matte carbon.. Or get it relaquered.. Think it's made by VARIS although there is no plaque.
    -Factory Tinted Headlights, Pretty Rare.. Also has aftermarket HIDs
    -TRD Side Skirts & Rear Bumper(non genuine fibreglass parts, look ok though)
    -JDM Carbon BGW, not a halfords special.. Made by R1 Racing in Japan.. Small amount of laquer peel..
    -Wind Deflectors x3.. Don't look at it as if one is missing, look at it as if you have 3 for free..
    -White Paintwork, fairly good condition, few minor bumps and scrapes,
    -Personalised Plate - Supposed to read I LUV U although I see MUFF or MILF

    Interior:
    -TRD Instrument Cluster - Unbeleivably Rare, worth £500 all day long.. 10k Rev counter in centre..
    -PERSONAL Steering Wheel(Genuine)
    -Decent Double Din Sterio, newish, USB & Aux ports on front..

    Other notes:
    -Car was imported in 2004
    -Iv had a really good look under the car, everything is in order.. I know this because iv removed some parts off it for my drift car.. Did have TRD under braces and strut braces and rear Tom's subframe brace.. I'm keeping them.. Hard luck..
    -Gear shifter has a big rubber boot underneath, it's got a rip, drips small amount of oil.. Might get and fit new one if I get chance..
    -The car is not mint, don't turn up expecting to see a show car.. It's been used as a track car so it's not mint. It's also not a wreck, it'll come up ok with some polish..
    -This car is obnoxiously loud.. I can't stress this enough..


    Priced to sell: £3250

    Collection from Guildford Surrey

    I was watching it so yes it was on eBay.
    If you put the touring car kit on this and got it painted it would sell straight away.

    Put a pair of brand new NS-20 tires on the front today.. Noticed the tires were not matching and one had perished edges, so changed them as I know that one would have failed Mot.
    Also put a new Bosch Battery on..
    Also got pair new number plates as they ware illegally spaced and would not pass an mot.

    MoT is done:thumbs:

    It doesn't look like the car has done many Kms in the past few years...

    Car drives really nice, many rattles and vibrations from the exhaust system, but the noise is addictive:thumbs:
    Been a while since iv driven something that handles so well:) Its got plenty of 'GO' to it:thumbs:
