Posted by aphex301, Apr-13-06 10:56 AM
Ive been lazy and havent been trying to sell locally to hard. Now is the time. I need to get rid of my car. Insurance and plates both are expired andthis is just looking like its going to get me in trouble.

This is the same car as last time. Red, 95000 miles, new clutch, 20000 on rebuilt motor. Body is OK, no major dents, scratches on rear bumper, peeled paint in little spots. Its in decent condition, no bad at all. Motor runs great(head makes noise from aftermarket pistons), trans shifts fine Mechanically fine - no AC. Nitrous is not on the car anymore. Selling for 2500, id like to be firm, but it has to go ASAP. Please only local people, who are serious. Pictures found below.

Engine Rebuild: New head at 78k w/ Crower Cams: intake duration 248 lift .389 exhaust duration 246 lift .357, Block .040 bore-over JE forged Pistons 10:5:1 c/r, Eagle rods . AEM timing gears. All done at 78k miles. Papers on cams only lost rest. Machining done at windy city machining. Seats are tenzo'EZ they come with the car, need retainers and sliders. They currenly only recline, but do not slide back foward. Anything else just ask away.

FOR ALL: my email is sk8am1@comcast.net

thanks,
matt

You can look at my cat any time. No lol, jk. Im located at 63rd and Harlem, right by the Airport. My boss lives in joliet and it takes him a good 40 minutes to get here from 1-80.

I believe its from the pistons. Ive read, even on this site and dsmtuners.com that its common. It can be gotten rid of by upgrading the valvetrain to PT lifters/retainers, i believe. Its a ticking noise, and its been doing it since the rebuild for about 2 years now.
