howdy all--
as many of you have seen over the years on my thread, I've been pretty absent! Lots of life changes, and I've come to the acceptance that I just don't have kit car ownership (or race car ownership) time or money in my life right now. It was a LOT of fun, I learned a ton, made a bunch of friends (some even named Frank), and will miss it dearly.
here's my build thread
https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?13414-Frank-s-818R-build
I'm parting it out because I built a new motor with an IAG block, and my transmission's axle seal is leaking again. I know I won't fix the trans in a reasonable time frame and without that I won't be able to properly break in/tune the engine, so the 818 wouldn't be driving. I am hoping the engine, all the various parts, and the 818 rolling chassis is my best avenue of selling it.
that said, I have many parts available including:
-IAG Stage 1 block, 2.0 head hybrid motor with IAG oil baffle/pickup, and a bunch of other bolt-on goodies. Hasn't been started.
-Transmission: Quaife QDH3Y in a 2007 WRX 5 speed case, forged ring/pinion gears, and an STi RA gear set. I can't make the axle seal seal to save my life. Don't know if the case is damaged, the diff isn't centered, or I'm just dumb.
-818R rolling chassis (probably more on that in its own post in the right section) with clean NC title
-STi TMIC (with the logo)
-VF39 turbo with the internal wastegate welded shut, an external BOV welded onto the up pipe
-AJW exhaust
-Crawford V1 AOS (no coolant plumbing)
-Grimspeed EBCS (3 port)
-STi OEM headers
-a box of parts from Mechie3 to make an air-to-water separator (unused)
-Group N transmission and engine mounts
-probably a bunch of other stuff I'm forgetting
if you are interested, happy to post more pics of stuff!
