Well day-um. A brand new motor/trans no less! Too bad I live 2,808 miles from Edmonds WA else I'd go take a look.

seen it in person as well, he told me he was right behind ben's FIT during time attack in 06, the car is not that bad in person, but i know the reason why he's selling it, coz his wife was pregnant last time i met him, maybe he needs the money, who knows

it's only k20z3...if it was k20a, then it'll be too fast for the FIT.

That motor isnt great. With just the motor and Kpro he barely beat out a stock Si 4door in SCC's tests. My guess is he added the SC cause it was too slow.
Granted I could be wrong but the test numbers said the info.

plus adds a more weight up front making handling worse.

it prolly would of been cheaper to go with an A instead of buying a brand new z3 from the dealership.. u can find a good used A lots of places.
