Modified GS300 - 19\'s, lowered, exhaust etc - £750

[rob192]

My beloved GS300 is up for sale.

Bought this off Firestorm in November (I think) and it has been my daily hack ever since. It\'s been my lorry, my 4x4, my bus and train and has done a fantastic job of it. My RX7 project is drawing to a close, tax and MOT is expired on this and currently declared SORN. I\'ll have no use for it soon so it\'s up for sale for someone else to enjoy. I\'ve done about 3000 miles in it. It\'s got around 116k on the clock. Many previous owners, about 10 I think.

Stuff I\'ve added or done since owning

Big stainless induction kit
Centre box and backboxes replaced with stainless straight pipe - with it\'s standard 6 branch it does sound fantastic probably the best sounding car I\'ve ever owned
Wind deflectors all round which were pretty expensive
TRD style front splitter
JDM cup/fag holder
Brand new Tanabe DF210 (I think) lowering springs -70mm ish ride quality is as standard, low enough to look good but high enough to glide over speedbumps at 30mph
GS300 sport grille that I have :censored::censored::censored::censored:ely wrapped in Farbon fibre wrap (this would benefit from being burnt - alternatively you could take the carbon off and just spray it matt black)
Tinted front inner lights
HIDS
Various and sundry LED\'s inside and out - reverse lights are bright enough to blind people even in bright sunlight
19" Zauber Gettins 19x9 19x10 if I recall correctly they\'re worth a bit on their own - tyres are :censored::censored::censored::censored:ed though (1 of the fronts is off at the moment due to epic puncture)
New front brakes pads discs and calipers cleaned up
Lip spoiler on boot, rear window spoiler up top
New Blueprint ADL track rods and ends which I may even have a receipt for if you\'re lucky
Diddy number plates
Personalised plate if your name happens to be RLOABBU - mine isn\'t but yours might be.
Probably more

It\'s luxurious in a late 90\'s Jap kind of way. Having said that it doesn\'t really lack anything a modern car would have.

Good points

LPG converted with ancient certificate but it does work
G\'d up full on compton tints (if thats your thing)
PAS
ABS
Aircon (which does work just fine)
Electric one touch windows all round
Sport, snow and normal modes on the gearbox
Dual zone climate control
Cruise control
Heated electric memory seats
Electric tilt slide sunroof
Sunglasses holder
6 CD changer
Auto dim mirror
Electric steering column
Heater in the back
About 17 ashtrays dotted around
Cupholders (makes a nice change coming from a 200)
Standard stereo\'s awesome (I\'ve added another luxurious appointment in the form of one of those 99p store tape mp3 adapters - laugh if you will but it does the job!)
Probably more


Bad points - This an exhaustive list which prempts the inevitable eBay auction for this car

Rear o/s window can be a bit dodgy off the main switch, new master switch included but never bothered me I rarely had it open
Assume ABS pump knackered - not really looked into this at all as it doesn\'t affect the drive but it has a habit of whining which is annoying. When I bought it it needed an ABS sensor probably something to do with that. THE BRAKES WORK ABSOLUTELY FINE!!
Various dents, scratches, scrapes. I\'ve tried to picture the worst.
Passenger mirror glass is detached and I cant be arsed to try to reattach it.
Rust along the front edge of the roof.
Rust on drivers side mirror base.
Drivers side headlight washer cover missing presumed dead.
No LPG in the tank so you\'ll have to risk life and limb to top it up - seriously, have you ever used the lpg pump at a petrol station? Damn thing nearly took my :censored::censored::censored::censored:ing hand off first time I filled it up.
Not a great deal of history as far as I recall, got a few previous MOT\'s and a few receipts for the bits I\'ve bought
Tyres are knackered (rears just about legal if you\'re feeling particularly fruity but I\'m not sure Mr MOT man would feel the same) - I will include a set of GS300 sport alloys though and you could probably make a legal set out of the 8 wheels just about.
Couple of rust bubbles on rear n/s arch
Key fob is dodgy, may just need a new battery but I suspect the buttons themselves are knackered. The lock button doesn\'t work but I just hit unlock again and it auto locks itself in 30 seconds.
Probably more

All in, good runner, never let me down. Tatty bodywork lets it down, interior in the pictures is pretty grubby but I will clean it up for you before you collect it. I shall miss the old barge when she goes, I\'ve become quite attached to it and I\'m sure you will too. Not exactly what you might describe as sporty but in a straight line if you put your foot down hard she goes pretty quick.

Including a set of GS300 sport rims and anything standard I haven\'t yet thrown away (thinking the grill here) I\'m after the princely sum of £750 ovno. I can deliver anywhere in the country on the back of a truck, don\'t hesitate to ask for a quote.

PM me if interested.

Cheers,

Rob.

Quick walkaround video including engine/exhaust sound toward the end - Owing to my excellent skill with the camera this is mostly the wrong way round but you can still here the car toward the end!
