Selling my '90 Brilliantrot 325is w/ m52b28 swap.
Location: Mineola, NY
No expense was spared on the whole car. I babied this car since day one. It was the first car I've built from ground up. Unfortunately I can no longer afford to keep 2 cars due to financial reasons.
I have 95% of the receipts for all the parts and work done.
We just got hit with a huge snow storm. Once the snow melts away I can take more pictures.
Work done:
Engine Work:
Motor was partially rebuilt. Head was removed and cleaned. Lifters were replaced. New headgasket was done. Bottom end was left untouched. Piston rings looked good. Timing chain replaced, chain tensioners all replaced. Oil pan gasket replaced.

The system was purchased new a little over a year ago.
The Good:
-The car pulls hard all the way til 7k redline (thx TRM Tuning)
-Handles awesome, fun to drive, easy to control. Drifters dream.
-Looks great, minimal rust (Originally a mid west car)
-No power steering (may or may not be good for some people)
The Bad:
-Poor girl has a Virginia Salvage Title. I had the car aligned a year ago by (Camber Toe Performance) the tech told me shes straight after the alignment. The car did pass the NY State Salvage Inspection (Yellow Sticker under hood) which is close to impossible to pass. The previous owner must have dumped $$$$$ to make that happen. I will provide the VIN below so you can check out the history.
-Odometer inconsistency: that is my bad. I have 3 different clusters (included with sale), the original cluster had a bad tach so I replaced it with another one and forgot to roll the Odometer to the correct mileage.
VIN: WBAAA1311LEC67439

-Crunchy 2nd gear. Comes with age right?
-HVAC Blower doesn't work, couldn't figure out why, i'm not good with electricals

-Rust on the rear tail panel under bumper
-Tool box lock is broken
-Didn't hook up backup lights after swap
