[Astroman]

Nooooo why???

[marcus]

wow really.... im sure someone will jump in to buy this...good luck garm!

[cali yaris]

Astro, I have eight cars at the moment -- I need to "cull the herd".

The Yaris as a project is pretty much complete, I've built it as far as I want to, proven what I needed to prove with it, shown it, and raced it. Time for someone else to enjoy it now.

[Astroman]

And how much will it cost for someone else to enjoy it?

[cali yaris]

I made a web page for it, it's the first thing in post #1. :wink:

[Astroman]

Ahh there it is. Damn $500 less than I got my stock new.

[Golddeenoh]

we all know the real reason why, he went all urabus on us and needed the space to put a new one beside his FR-S :P

[HANZO_187]

HOT DAMN!!!!! I would love to have a car like that! So well equipped...Its like a car you unlock in a game lmao I love that car...It screams I'll kick your ass on the black top.

[cali yaris]

^ Yes. And then it does! :laugh:

[ilikerice]

I'm going to be sick... :berp:

Bummer. Never got a shot at that heads up race. :wink: Sell it and build a full road race car. :thumbsup:

[cali yaris]

^ Great idea.

[Golddeenoh]

^ Great idea.

oh no a race car FR-S is going through his mind:rolleyes:

[jRoss]

That things is stunning. A work of art. Yaris at its finest.

[YarisSedan]

You should sell time shares of the car different person gets to enjoy it every month of the year lol.

[Ryze268]

I love the colour, it looks real tough for a Yaris

[tooter]

Wow... a lot of car for 14 grand! Good luck with your sale, Garm. :smile:
It would probably be good idea to sell it out of state because of the nannystate smog laws here.

[cali yaris]

Thanks tooter, and yes, unless someone wants to cheat the smog test (extremely easy), or make it a dedicated track car.

[Golddeenoh]

no smog laws here :D

[YarisSedan]

What a steal that car comes with a tom tom

[turboecho2005]

GLWS! I know the feeling about having too many cars...

[Ryze268]

Where can I get a set of those Fender Flares ?

[cali yaris]

^ In stock. :smile:

[Ryze268]

I'm sorry I searched but I cannot find them, may I have a link?

[cali yaris]

I don't think we have section for them, I have one set available in fiberglass.

They don't go all the way to the bottom; mine were extended to blend with the bodykit.

$250 shipped for a set of four. I can email you some pics if you like.

[Ryze268]

PM sent

[Golddeenoh]

PM sent

when i saw that, i almost thought it was about the whole car and not the fender flares:eek:

[Yoda]

you shall be missed :(

[cali yaris]

you shall be missed :(

Is that directed at me? :iono:

[SAV912]

How easily does all of that bracing and such come out of the back? I would like to eventually fill in the entire interior and 'un-gut' it, so to speak.

It is FAR FAR too much car for me to utilize at a track, as track days aren't very popular here in Georgia but bringing the wildest Yaris on YW over here to see the East Coast and tame it up a bit seems like a tempting idea. This Fiat thing isn't all I thought it was gonna be...

-C

[cali yaris]

The bracing is all bolt-in, so a stock interior could presumably be easily re-created.

FHT Racing on here was supposed to send me most of the rear pieces, but kind of flaked on me so far. :rolleyes:

I am collecting stock pieces from CL as the car sits around to slowly put it back together (inside), in case the "next guy" wants to go that direction.

[goliath1812]

Get it Sav!!!! FL/GA meet :-)

[SAV912]

Don't do that to me. :P

Garm, how hard was the xB final drive swap? You wouldn't still happen to have the stock Yaris final drive on hand, would you? I don't imagine a stock Yaris transmission could hold all that power reliably, even on the lesser 14PSI tune. I do an all interstate commute, and 4300 at 80 MPH would get a bit old...it is 2000+ miles from here to there. :D

-C

[cali yaris]

I have the old final drive.

I don't imagine a stock Yaris transmission could hold all that power reliably, even on the lesser 14PSI tune.

This has the stock transmission, only the final drive is different.

I would budget for transportation (which you might talk me into including, hint hint)

[Yoda]

Is that directed at me? :iono:

Nope your car. It created the spark that ignited the growth of the turbo yaris.

[cali yaris]

^ Thank you.

OK, next it goes onto other forums and Craigs List. Here is a perc for you -- I will include transporting it anywhere in the 48.

[Golddeenoh]

come on lottery ticket!!!

[SAV912]

^ Thank you.

Dammit.

Well I'll be putting the Fiat up for sale sooner than I thought, then. :iono:

[cali yaris]

I'm also going to fill it with enough spare parts to keep someone on eBay profitably busy for a long time. :wink:

[Golddeenoh]

[TickleTimeTim]

Or you could put up a huge FS thread up with the extras...:)

[cali yaris]

^ nah, too much trouble, and I want to make the deal on the car as favorable as possible to the buyer.

thank you for the bump :bow:

[goliath1812]

Sav hasn't bought this yet?

[cali yaris]

not that I know of :laugh:

[SAV912]

Sav hasn't bought this yet?

I wish.

SAV still has a 100 hp Stiletto shoebox sitting in his garage that won't start because it needs to be towed to the dealer so they can do their recall and replace the starter bolts so that they don't ground to the chassis. :mad:

Kinda a bad deal if somebody shows up to test drive it and I'm like "Yeeeah, uh...about that." :iono:

[laszlo]

very nice car and a nice guy too good luck with the sale buddy

[DINOeggxo]

I would sell my soul for this yaris.

[cali yaris]

^ That can be arranged. :biggrin:

[tk-421]

Now we're getting somewhere. :evil:

[cali yaris]

^ I wish. :frown:

[Golddeenoh]

^ I wish. :frown:

and everyone on this forum wishes they could afford it :P

[Gearheadb6]

So sad.... Its such a pretty car. It doesnt take up that much space does it? I mean... Compared to the nash and all :| cant you just shove it in the corner and let us locals drool over it until one of us hits it big in vegas... Or the lottery... Or robs a bank... Or... :) just kidding. Ive sent the link to about 10 people, all have more motor oil in there head then brain cells! Best of luck...


One question though- I forget, did you make that custom piece for those apr mirrors? I want a set of those SSSSOOOOOO bad, it hurts... I know at the moment they are a one off basically, but since its departing time- i figured you wouldnt min if i jacked your style a bit... :)

[cali yaris]

Yes, the trim pieces are modified (filled) so the APR mirrors could be installed.

Looks like we have a shop truck that can tow a good trailer now, so I might keep it for the track (if an offer doesn't come).

[Gearheadb6]

^Awesome! And thanks for the info! :)

[justjesus]

Looks like we have a shop truck that can tow a good trailer now, so I might keep it for the track (if an offer doesn't come).

good stuff. if things go according to plan (finally) then autoX with speed ventures in sept, and ROVAL road course in Nov. Jason's CRX is sort of for sale, too. We'll see if he still has it.

[Golddeenoh]

1 for 1 best i can do until i start getting allowance again. :P

[cali yaris]

Let's try a lower price.

[Golddeenoh]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v403/BlkS/faint.gif

[ilikerice]

Oh your GOD!.....

That is too cheap.. So cheap I can't buy it because I feel I may get arrested for grand theft auto

[cali yaris]

^ I'll post your bail. Should I include that in the description? :rolleyes:

[ilikerice]

^^HAHA!... yes..

[Golddeenoh]

maybe we should start small, like first speeding ticket instead of jail time, just say'n.

[djhuddy2442]

is the car sold

[cali yaris]

not yet!

[djhuddy2442]

ok if my money comes in soon and its not sold ill take it so i can have two on my parking pad

[cali yaris]

sounds good. I drove it a bit today, going to change the oil and put fresh plugs this week.

[Thirty-Nine]

Holy crap. How did I miss this?

This is one of those "if only" moments! I can pay you in returnable beer bottles, and will throw in two late-to-middle-aged cats. Let me know if you're interested.

[cali yaris]

hmm.. cat pictures?

[cali yaris]

$11,500

[Golddeenoh]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v403/BlkS/faint.gif

:slice:

so close to 1 for 1

[thatbryanguy]

Sold it yet?

[cali yaris]

nope, not even at $10,500. :frown:

[thatbryanguy]

I'm in for buying it if the loan goes through and you're still selling it. Emailed you :P

[cali yaris]

Replied, thank you very much.

[Golddeenoh]

well hell at 10,500 that is dead even with 1 for 1 on my car. if it doesn't sale i'm down for a 1 for 1. :D as long as we can figure out the details.

[cali yaris]

1 for 1? :iono:

[Golddeenoh]

trade yarii bro, you get an 09 with 45k miles and MI only parts (minus the hood and wheel/tires) with all of the OEM parts and i get yours, then you can easily sale mine and i can go eat Hondas, win win.

[cali yaris]

OIC. Better idea: you sell yours, and then buy mine. :wink:

[Golddeenoh]

how am i going to get around if i sale my car and have to wait for yours to come in the mail? i'll consider it but I'll have to wait until my off time.

[cali yaris]

ok. Buy mine first then. Bro.

[Golddeenoh]

if i had it, it would have already happened. months ago.

[cali yaris]

Then I will thank you, kind sir. For the bumps.

[cali yaris]

$9,500.

[Jason@SportsCar]

I think you have to keep it.

[cwitte]

Bump for sheer awesomeness.

[Golddeenoh]

I think you have to keep it.

no if all else fails he can just work a deal to get it to me :P

[Shinare]

Is this a daily driver? What MPG at 14psi? AC?

[Thirty-Nine]

$9,500.

Insert Super Troopers "Mother of God" picture here.

[mr_miles]

everytime I see this thread I reconsider buying a 370 and buying the yaris instead....

[cali yaris]

Is this a daily driver? What MPG at 14psi? AC?

Read the page, linked in the first post.

Daily driver if you don't mind a stripped, loud car with no radio or A/C.

Approx. 20 mpg if you drive it lightly.

[ilikerice]

I wish I could see a build thread to this car. I would love it to see the stages this car went thru through out its build. from the dealer to the track. That would be awesome

[cali yaris]

If this site hadn't been hacked, it would all still be on here. :cry:

[Golddeenoh]

[cali yaris]

Images of puppies always helps sell stuff.

[cali yaris]

$8000.

[Radou]

8000 $ and nobody buy it wtf

[cali yaris]

I know. It's kind of crazy. You can't even do a motor build + management + tuning for that.

[fnkngrv]

I know. It's kind of crazy. You can't even do a motor build + management + tuning for that.


^ agreed. Not understanding why this hasn't gained any sales traction.

[mazilla]

That's nucking futs.

[Golddeenoh]

oh come one 1 for 1, i throw in all the original parts and you can return my car back to stock, sale it, and sale the 3k in after market parts and get at least 1500 back.

oh is there a second seat in it or just the one?

[yarisugi]

^lol

[cali yaris]

selling used parts back to a dealer = less than perfect strategy.

You going to handle all transportation for both cars?

Two seats. Brand new.

[tk-421]

I would sell both my Jar Jars for 8K right now...

[Thirty-Nine]

Wow. That's a steal.

[cali yaris]

I'd actually make out better if someone DID steal it. :laugh:

[47_MasoN_47]

I'd actually make out better if someone DID steal it. :laugh:

Would you mind having someone haul it to Florence, AL and leave it in the mall parking lot? I can arrange the rest :P

[cali yaris]

Then I can arrange the arrest. :tongue:

[47_MasoN_47]

Hey I never said I was going to steal it.... lol

[toad]

somebody should buy this if for nothing else than the fact that it's been so important to the history(and present, of course) of the 1NZ-FE!

i'd say it belongs in a museum, but i've never been a fan of monster-performance cars sitting around collecting dust...

[cali yaris]

Plus I'm going to put it back up to $14,000 if no one bites. :rolleyes:

[BondXII]

Dang...if you weren't on the Left Coast. :-)

[cali yaris]

Shipping/trucking will add about $1000. Still a deal. :thumbsup:

[BEEF]

If I lived in SC, I would so snatch this up and make it a daily driver. Dang annual inspections.

Not sure if GA has safety inspections/emission/"screw it give the state some money for the year" type stuff.

[BondXII]

Shipping/trucking will add about $1000. Still a deal. :thumbsup:

I KNOW!! Talked to the "boss" about it. I don't think she grasps the concept on how much we will end up putting in the ole Bumble Rumble by the time it's all over...more than 9k (at least close to it)

No inspections or emissions in GA. Dealt with all the that growing up in the NE (DE, PA, NJ, CT, etc) But don't worry, GA makes up for it with quite the tag tax. 4% of the "taxable" value of the vehicle. However the hell they figure that out. :iono:

I live in SC, wish i had the money to get it. i would so daily drive this car, and eat hondas when ever i had the chance.

[cali yaris]

As of tonight, it's up on eBay. :rolleyes: :cry:

That's actually not true.
It depends on what county you're in here in Georgia.
Where I live, you still have to do emissions.

[cali yaris]

Thanks for all the support, everyone, we are approaching our reserve for the car on eBay.

[detroiter]

Wish I could pick this bad boy up! No inspections and no emissions in Michigan! Could register this thing and drive it same day :(

[cali yaris]

We are very close to the reserve now -- someone may actually win it!

[DINOeggxo]

glws. i love this car sooooooo much!!! wish i could pick this up :(

[cali yaris]

^ Thank you. 2.5 days to go!

[WeeYari]

Reserve has been met. This baby WILL be finding a new home.

[cali yaris]

Actually, that bid was retracted. Bothers me a lot that someone would go to that trouble to find the reserve. It's also against eBay TOS :evil:

[Bluevitz-rs]

Start parting it out yet?

[fnkngrv]

Hope they get it caught in their zipper! :thumbdown:

as the time drawls near

[cali yaris]

yeah, Sunday night! (thanks for updating the thread) :bow:

[WeeYari]

Oooo, no reserve. She's really gonna go this time. Sure hope it stays within the community. Be a shame if it road off into the sunset.

[tk-421]

Congrats Garm! I'm guessing the FR-S is having a few presents under the tree this year... :biggrin:

[ilikerice]

I shared this on my facebook. Everyone wants to strip it out and sell the shell... makes me upset. One of my friends bid on it, but just got out bid.

[cali yaris]

My '69 Datsun Roadster gets an OS Giken LSD now, for one thing.. :laugh:

[cali yaris]

Everyone wants to strip it out and sell the shell... makes me upset.

Not a bad strategy, someone could probably profit by the sale that way. I don't mind at this point.

[cali yaris]

One of my friends bid on it, but just got out bid.

Where is he located?

[ilikerice]

Savannah, GA

has a shop here call Short Stop Garage..

[ilikerice]

He Buys cars all over the country some times. He got a S15 in MN, I think, somewhere up north. But got a 1 way plane ticket and drove it back down to GA..

[cali yaris]

Looks like a third guy jumped in with the high bid. Exciting! About 30 hours to go.

[cali yaris]

< 1 HOUR!!

[WRX]

DONT SELL IT!!!! You will miss it, I dropped 20k into aftermarket parts on a 2001 Integra GSR back in 2001 it was sick but years later I miss it and wish I had held onto it. Since then I have had new Benz Amgs and M3s all those are gone but I still miss that one car that I tricked out. It looks like your car is worth way more than u are selling it for tellin ya don't do it. Its one of a kind.

[Bluevitz-rs]

Sold. Final price - $7500 USD

[cali yaris]

Yay. I won't miss it, I've done several projects and I always wish them well when it's time to go.

[ilikerice]

What region is the buyer from? Or is it local? just curious is all.

[cali yaris]

Florida! I'll ask if I can release the owner's identity.

[ilikerice]

OooOOoo... I hope I get to see this at an autocross event next year

[cali yaris]

You likely will. The new owner says he intends to drive it as a weekend track day/autocrosser, which is REALLY nice to hear.

[ilikerice]

Hell yea.. Will definitly keep my eyes open now.. Gonna try to hit up those Central Florida Region, FIRM track events, and some Jacksonville region events next year..

Hope he doesn't flake on you, whoever it is.

[cali yaris]

Looks like it's a done deal. And I can't say who it is for now!

[ mods can close if you like, car is sold ]

[goliath1812]

Florida! Nice :)
