Background:
I bought this car from its original owner in January and I have all documentation back to when this car was new. This car is in tremendous condition - never crashed, curbed, wrecked, raced, modified. The car was in non-running condition when I bought it but only needed some minor refreshing. I have completely gone through this car and replaced anything that the car needed. It is completely solid and I would not hesitate to drive it cross-country. It starts up quickly hot or cold, idles smoothly, pulls strongly to redline and handles like a new car. The air conditioning works and blows very cold.
Engine / Drivetrain:
Original engine with even compression on all chambers. Peak compression on non-Mazda gauge is 115psi.
New spark plugs and wires
New vacuum hoses throughout (including new Mazda oil injector vacuum splitter)
Fuel injectors cleaned, rebuilt and flow tested by Witch Hunter. New o-rings and insulators
New rubber fuel hoses
New pulsation damper
New fuel filter
New BAC valve
New battery
New thermostat and fresh coolant / distilled water
Remanufactured alternator
New OE Mazda clutch disc and pressure plate with resurfaced flywheel
New O2 sensor
Verified no turbo shaft play or wheel damage
Blocked off sub-zero injector
Verified oil injector lines are in good condition
Racing beat Rev TII exhaust from turbo-back with high-flow cat installed in downpipe. 5th gear boost 8psi. No FCD installed nor needed. Emissions legal in 49 states
New clutch fluid
A/C compressor replaced about two years ago, converted to R-134a
New Redline transmission fluid and rear end fluid
Brakes:
New OE pads all around
Rotors have plenty of thickness - replaced by previous owner.
New master cylinder
Flushed brake fluid
Suspension
Checked front ball joints - tight with no play
Checked front tie rods - tight with no play
Replaced front swaybar endlink bushings with polyurethane
Replaced rear swaybar endlinks with S5 endlinks
Differential bushings, trans bushings, control arm bushings and rear trailing arm bushings are all in good shape.
Newer KYB AGX shocks with new Eibach lowering springs. Stock look and ride with a moderate drop and improved handling.
New suspension top mounts front and rear
Eibach camber bolts in front struts to improve handling while maintaining stock tire wear.
Exterior:
New windshield top molding
New window bottom moldings
New external hatch seal
New badging all around (originals were badly faded)
New wiper blades
Blasted and refinished wiper arms, cowl plate and windshield side trims
Original Noble White paint shows some minor door dings and a few stone chips. Some checking / shrinking of paint near rockers, very common.
NO RUST top or bottom.
NO accident damage - I personally know the original owner and he verified it has never been hit - he never even hit a curb with the wheels.
Wheels have been blasted and professionally powdercoated for durability.
Sanded and polished FTP lenses
Paint has been professionally cleaned, clayed, compounded, polished and sealed with Klasse.
New Kumho Ecsta LE tires in stock 205/55/16 size.
Interior
Overall 9/10. Dashboard is not faded or cracked. Minor wear on door pockets, but that's about it!
Seats / carpets have been cleaned and look almost new.
Never smoked in.
Newer Sony AM/FM/CD with Aux input cable
Power windows operate quickly and smoothly with no odd noises
New Sony speakers (mounted in front doors professionally)
Air conditioning blows cold!
Original rear hatch cargo cover
Sunroof does not work - will flip up but not slide back.
This car is even more beautiful in person than it is in pictures and it is hard to believe how nice it drives. With manual steering the steering feel is spot on. The exhaust is quiet but has a nice mellow tone when you get on it. The car starts perfectly hot or cold - I started and stopped it multiple times during the photo shoot and it never flooded. The car stops well and tracks straight and true.
In my opinion there is not a nicer example available for sale today and I'm asking a very fair price for this car. Car is located in Columbia Maryland. I can assist transportation of the car for the buyer if necessary (I have a truck and trailer, but I can drive the car within a reasonable distance as well).
The car comes with all three original keys, a soft car cover, a windshield sun blocker, the original owner's manual and a factory service manual.
