Aaron DeLong's car. I can attest that this thing is unbelievable fast in a straight line. He's selling it to fund a new racing hobby...

Though they called it the "Turbo II" the FC was actually a single turbo from the factory, so no "conversion" here, just a turbo upgrade. Let me guess, you talked him into buying an S2000?

I just posted the text he told me to. :-?

And no, he's not going to buy an S2000 (especially when has has about 3 that he can codrive all the time)...

And the reason I am selling it is all it really does is sit at my house and do nothing. I don't drive it much, so its time to let it go. I would like to get a shifter kart to replace it as that will be more geared towards what I want to do.

So, this has S8 parts in it?

Is it the 13B-T or is it a 13B-REW engine?

I've personally driven this car and it's a monster. It'll spin the rear 17x9.5 mounted Star Specs in forward gear, in the dry, if they are not up to temp. Lots of torque and noise!
