Other Comment's about the vehicle:
The turbo conversion was only recently completed (at 147,000km) and my mechanic noted that the engine was in good health. It is running 5-6psi on low boost and 7-8psi on high boost. This is more than enough to hold off SS Commodores, XR8's etc... and enough to keep up with an XR6T until 100kmh. At the moment, water injection is activating as soon as positive manifold pressure is detected as I don't currently have the bonnet scoop in.
The suspension setup is great (at the moment it is all on the softest setting) and it handles VERY well indeed, and surprises a lot of other cars on the road when negotiating corners. Coupled with the brakes this car is very capable of outhandling almost any other car on the road with some nice driving.
All mods have been completed this year (with the exeption of the JUN Flywheel) and are all in great condition. Since these mods have been performed, only Penrite HPR30 has been used and BP Ultimate is the only fuel I use.
Now the important part. The reason (And only reason) I'm selling is because I'm starting schooling again next year, and don't want to put the k's on my pride (50min each way drive to get to campus). I love the car to bits, but going in to full time schooling, I won't be able to afford to pay for fuel, registration, rent and food all at the once. The standard clutch is still gripping well, but I also have a 190mm Exedy/Datrats custom unit that will be included if I get the price I'm after).
The engine work was done by Canberra's best (Ben @ Intune Auto/Racing) and the suspension tuned by the best (Howard Revell Suspension/Steering). Absolutely no corners have been cut on this car.
As can be expected, the body has a few dents but the paint is still in immaculate condition. Its got a brand new radiator overflow coolant bottle and doorhandle, as well as having the entire cooling system flushed. It will be detailed inside and out for the new owner.
The car gets washed regularly by myself and almost detailed every 2-3 weeks. I am very fussy with my cars, and it will show when you see this car in person.
I'm open to offers around $12,750 PRICE DROP TO $11,000 ONO but no stupid offers will be considered. This car will NOT be sold to just anyone, only someone who will care for it.
I really need this car gone as I've found a Celsior that I desperately want, and I need the cash. You won't be disappointed
Thanks guys
Sean

Some pictures:
So as you can see guys, the car is absolutely immaculate. I take great pride in my cars and enjoy keeping them well maintained.
I have the spare cup that the oil pressure guage will go into as well, and forgot to mention in the original post that the car also has an oil catch can (which hasn't caught any oil yet... Which is good)

bump for a local!!
Saw this car before the conversion a couple of times, needless to say it still turned my head
it will give other cars a run for their money on corners too, not to mention fuel consumption!
a smart buy if you ask me!
