  • NSW V6 4Motion Bora w/ good mods

    hi dubbers

    Very sadly, the time has come to move the Mighty Bora on and I figured I'd see if maybe a forum member has any interest in her before some muppet from carsales snaps it up.

    Carsales ad has all the info, and she is perfect and ready to throw another few hundred thousand kms at the road. She is sitting at 176,000kms right now. Minor services done at home every 10,000 or so kms with Castrol Edge Sport and Redline gbox fluid. I own a share in a service station and can promise you she only has ever had 98RON. Major services and repairs done under the skilful hands and eyes of Arthur at Exoticars.

    She has been used mainly as my work vehicle, in that i do high kms travelling around selling a financial services platform to financial planners, and has just been brilliant to me. I'll frequently average 9.0L per 100kms on my city/highway mix.

    Around 165,000 km the clutch slave cylinder went, so she has a new clutch and flywheel. Thats one of the major things out of the way for you - and as you know, the engine is bulletproof.

    Mods:-
    - Complete respray 2,000kms ago with matte black Plastidip. This peels off leaving no residue and would show a good-ish Black Magic Pearl paintjob with chrome accents if you wanted to revert to that.
    - Custom-Code ECU tune - Massive difference in drivability
    - Blue Haldex controller
    - Dieselgeek shirt-shift kit
    - New clutch and flywheel
    - Audi 8l S3 17" rims, also sprayed in black matte but otherwise perfect condition
    - EBC Red Stuff pads all round with Gloss black VHT calipers
    - SRS-Tek bodykit (R32 look-a-like) with only front fitted so far
    - R32 Sways F and R
    - R32 steering wheel
    - R32 gear shift
    - R32 shocks and springs all round
    - R32 exhaust from cat-back with flapper mod - sounds freaking amazing
    - Audi TT pedals
    - Modshack VTDA intake and K&N cone filter - also sounds amazing
    - New MAF
    - New Plugs
    - New Coils
    - New Battery
    - New Metal propellor waterpump
    - New coolant lines throughout
    - 034 Motorsport Strut top Mounts
    - ECS Stage 2 Suspension Refresh
    - New Dogbount mount and HD bushes
    - Tyrolsport brake caliper bushing

    Rego till mid-November. Current personalised plates will not be on the car at the time of sale.

    I figure I've priced it fairly at $12,000 as I am keen to sell it now i've made the mental decision to sell, and id be happy to knock a bit off to a forum member too.

    Here's the carsales ad -

        you are going to get some many PITA questions about the paint haha
        well priced considering the time and effort gone into the car, GL with sale mate.

        if its not sold, I would LOVE to see this at GAD (GAF) if you can make it

          i get stopped easily every 2nd fill-up at servos etc, heaps of cops look too

          but it literally peels off, i could undress the car and get it back to stock in 20mins. I'm actually toying with going matte white because there are a few different sty;es i'd like to try in laying the paint on etc.

          As for the sale, Boras move damn slow and i daresay a part-out would net me more cash, and then trade her for like 5k or so on a nicer ride. Dunno, just seeing if the market wants a poor-man's batmobile/stealth fighter atm.

          As for GAD, i sooooo wanna make it. Loved it last year.

            haha yeah I can imagine.
            Yeah have seen how easy the plastidip can be removed. White would be mad
            yeah parts are always worth more, well hopefully it stays in one piece for the next 2months then

              If you're keen on selling the steering wheel separately I'd be pretty interested depending on price..

                if there's enough interest in parts, i guess i could take offers after a while. But overall, very keen on selling her whole as it'd be tough to take a knife to her, so to speak.

                  Sad to see you selling dylan...

                  As for parts. Id be keen on the haldex controller and maybe the exhaust depending on prices.

                  GLWS anyway man.

                    If parting I might be keen on the body kit

                      Have had a few bites on the car as is (in addition to the offers of parts above) but i guess if you're fairly serious about the parts then maybe PM me and we can go from there.
                      Kind of a shame to take a spanner to her in anger though, she feels almost perfect. Needs the rest of the body kit, some tints and maybe a V9f supercharger...

                            Mate **** me I saw this on carsales yesterday and was just spooked. You're not interested in trading for an 01 bora with no mods? Haha

                            But seriously, that paint is like sexy magic
