Testing the Waters - 2001 Supercharged 5 Speed SEV6

by **cdssolara** » Sun Feb 05, 2006 3:24 am

** 12/6/08 Update I never sold this car, but I'm looking to do so now. If anyone is interested, let me know. The car has pretty much been off the road and in my garage since I originally posted this. It only has a little over 57,000 miles now. I'm not sure what the market is now, but I'll make someone a good deal if they want it as is.**

I know that everyone will advise me to part this car out, but I don't want to go through the hassle. I'd love to sell this car as it is, and I'm not really in a big hurry. I haven't decided on a price, but if someone wants it, I'll give them a good deal. Here's what I've got:

2001 Black/Charcoal SEV6 5 speed
56,600 miles (I'm the original owner)
TRD Supercharger 7 psi pulley (also have 4 and 5.5 pulleys)
Dynoed at 273 fwhp 252 lb/ft
High flow/lower compression heads (from Jim@FA)
Walbro 190 lph fuel pump
Injectors from non-turbo Supra
Denso IK22 spark plugs
JP Performance headers and exhaust
Clutchmasters Stage 2 clutch
Quaife limited slip differential
Fidanza flywheel
Eibach Pro-Kit springs
Tokico Blue shocks
TRD Rear Sway Bar (also have Whiteline front and rear bars)
Mille Miglia EVO5 wheels 16x7.5
Michelin Pilot Sport All Seasons 225/55/16 (95% of tread)
TRD Short Shifter
SAFC
Bosch Wide Band A/F monitor
Autometer Boost and A/F gauges
Auto Dimming mirror with outside temp gauge
Stock seats with Katzkin leather

noooooooooooooooo not you too cdssolara!!
you have more mods than i thought... last time i spoke to you, you mentioned your solara was nearly stock-looking... tho i knew you had a demon under the hood :wink:

but i know you got big plans going so good luck!!

Thanks! Yeah, it's definitely a sleeper. I've enjoyed this car a lot, but with a 3 year old, and my wife's 3 kids coming soon, a coupe just isn't practical. I've still got the G35 sedan, but an SUV is probably in the future, too.

You're just over two months too late, I would've been on this like a ricer on wings if I didn't have my new Solara already. Ricer on wings...

Bump

$12,500. If you're interested in the mods, it's a steal. PM me and give me an e-mail address for pictures.

Seriously, that kills me. I paid $8,100 for a 99 V6 5spd with 76k mi. on it just 3 months ago not even... Black on charcoal and everything. I took it because it was that or hold out for somethign and I just really needed a car, but I could have financed the difference easily. To get 2 years newer with less miles and al the stuff I'd put on the car anyhow, just wow.

Oh well, good luck with the sale.

I almost put this up for sale about 6 months ago, but I needed to wait till my wife got another car. It sounds like the timing would have been almost perfect. Sorry it couldn't work out.
