JDM STI 9 Widetrack
I'm testing the water as Im going to be moving abroad soon.
Just wondering If I have priced this right?
It's a Mint JDM STI9 Widetrack and by mint I mean there isn't a mark on it.
The only downside is that have replaced the twin scroll engine for a standard UK one.
The plan was to do a forged build whilst still using it and then swap out the engine for a built one. I never got round to it.
The engine that is in there is mint and doesn't use drop of oil I also have Full service history for the engine itself.
The car is a JDM widetrack so has all the usual nice JDM goodies.
Roof flap (factory fitted)
OEM HID Lights
Hawkeye red defi style dashboard with start up sweep
It has four new tyres Kuhmo KU39 all have less than 1000 miles on them.
Syvecs
FMIC
23mm Perrin Front ARB
25mm Perrin Rear ARB
Perrin 3 port Boost solenoid
Blitz Mirror Drive Gauges 60mm in genuine Defi dashtop pod
Looking for £8500 which if you saw the car in the flesh you'd realise is a steal.
Let me know if you're interested.
Here's some pics

So its not a twin scroll(VF37??)) So the engine and turbo set up was all changed to UK set-up(vf35)?? Wouldn't the ecu need to be mapped/changed to run a different turbo, headers etc??
Sorry for the questions, but thought it would be easier to put them up here instead of Pm your inbox, in case someone would ask the same questions!!

I did the engine swap. my projects are fairly well known on here and it's fair to say I know my way around these cars 
Mileage on this engine is circa 60k its a proper nice engine this one doesnt use a drop of oil.
It's a late 54 plate and as such is virtually a Jdm hawkeye apart from the front end. By that I mean it has the hawk interior, dash widetrack and 114.5 pcd etc. l
Let me be clear on this. I'm in no rush to sell so it won't be going for peanuts. As others have indicated its a bargain as is.
The ONLY reason I'm selling is that I'm going to live abroad for a few years. If I could take it with me or I had somewhere to store it until I got back I'd be keeping it. It's a smashing car and probably one of the best examples out there.

I've had a few people contact me that have used the excuse of the engine swap to try and knock me down on price. Please note if It had the standard Jdm engine and twin scroll it would be priced accordingly. By the same token people are also being put off by the engine swap.
Whilst I understand it I think it's very close minded. The engine has been faultless since I fitted it six months ago. In that time it has done circa 10k miles and hasn't useda drop of oil and water. The engine itself is absolutely Devine. It would be a huge shame to any serious buyer to not consider the whole car
I genuinely think the first serious buyer to view the car will be the first to buy it. It really is in very very good condition

Lots of people making daft offers without even seeing the car.
Lots of people saying they are interested will come and see it etc and then never hearing from them again. I had forgotten how bad it can be selling a car.
All I can say is if anyone is seriously looking for a Widetrack blob eye that's absolutely immaculate then please arrange to see it. You can then see in the flesh how good this car is you can also feel how good the drive is. I have absolutely no doubt that if a serious buyer comes to view the car they 'll buy it.
This car is a spotless stunning example with all the nice JDM goodies etc.
Come see the car you'll not be disappointed.
