lovatt Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I am reluctantly putting up for sale my 2003 VIII due to the fact I’m moving abroad. I have owned the car for around 4 years and it has had a small fortune spent on it! I fully intended to fit a large turbo setup on it but ran it on a very safe map and MR turbo for running in, it has only been run on an Mr turbo and the engine has covered around 5k miles and never missed a beat, even though its on a 10.5 turbo and safe map, you can see from the graphs it pulls like a train! Due to this fact I future proof purchased everything on the engine, you can run a massive amount of power through this engine with a simple swap of the turbo, injectors and a remap. The car is very tidy and valeted nearly every week by a professional valet company, the car is serviced more often than has been recommended and has never been involved in any accidents as far as I can see (and I should be able to tell as I am the manager of a very large body shop) the car has never been used on track since I have owned it and the previous owner told me the same as he used it as his company car. The car was 100% stock when I bought it. The car can be sold with or without the private plate EVO 3 NUT and I am willing to take parts off to put stock parts back on or change the spec of the car within reason. ENGINE Evo 400 induction filter Evo 400 maf deletion pipe APS 3.5" full exhaust HKS valve springs HKS cam gears HKS IC hard pipes HKS cam belt HKS 1.2mm head gasket HKS 272/272 cams HKS ssqv bov Sard fpr ARP head studs ARP main studs Crower con rods Wiesco 85.5mm pistons (with Teflon coating) Eagle billet crank Megan racing exhaust manifold THS ported turbo elbow THS ally radiator Exedy twin plate clutch Walbro fuel pump ACL chamfered bearings 3mm lash adjusters MR Turbo with 10.5 turbo housing Gems stand alone engine management 2 bar map sensor Induction temp sensor Up rated boost control solenoid (Mapped by Steve Simpson) Titanium valve spring retainers Ralliart thermostat Ralliart radiator cap Balance shaft removal kit NGK iridium spark plugs Mocal 19 row oil cooler Perrin Monster front mount intercooler Samco coolant pipes RC clear cam gear cover On top of this I have had EVERYTHING stock such as gaskets, oil pump, water pump and loads of other things replaced with brand new genuine mitsi parts. The car has switchable anti lag but I have only used it a couple of times.
