FS, WA: 1990 Coupe Quattro AAN VEMS 5 lug

Post by Afterthought »

Time to put up a "feeler" Have put over 2 years of my life and ALL of my money into resurrecting this car and it's been a very bumpy road .Time to part ways and work on something else.
Looking to take nothing less than 13,500. Wouldn't trade for anything except an Ur-Quattro.
If you have been following my thread, you know I have over 2 years, countless hours and a house down payment worth of money into this, last year after finally getting the swap completed and engine running the rod bearings failed. So I took that opportunity to upgrade to I-beam forged rods and so some light head work, all new top and bottom end gaskets, new oil cooler and lines, countless other parts. Almost every part for this build was sourced brand new and I have a spreadsheet to track where everything was purchased and #'s.
Everything in the engine is well sorted and new. Have a lot of hours into the tune and the car runs great, pulls very hard, and gets great mileage. The car is tuned to run .95-1.0 Lambda at idle and light cruise, but drops to .85 lambda under heavy throttle or boost, peaking just over 20 PSI. The car has not seen any boost since firing up with the new engine as the boost is disabled right now (unplugged N75) to allow some easy time for engine break in. Does not burn any oil.
As far as needs, there are a bunch of small things listed below

http://theprojectpad.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=826 <-- Most of the build is documented here. The AAN was used for a number of reasons and I chose to retain the use of the stock intake manifold with the "Hank mod" (TB moved forward to facilitate side mount radiator fitment), also used an AAN serpentine belt setup which makes working on anything in front of the engine really nice and easy. and less belts involved.

Cons:
- One very small dent on the front fender, hardly noticeable unless you're me
- Odometer doesnt work, bought a used cluster today (7/16) that's had all the gears replaced to use as a fix
- Power windows, door locks, or sunroof aren't working at this time.
- No AC
-The car runs hot if it sits, or if it's hot out. I spent hours making ducting to mimic the factory coupe design to channel air flow into and out of the radiator. But even with the 1200 CFM fan, it doesn't like to sit in the hot summer weather. I am going to relocate the oil cooler and do a few other things to see if that helps, may add another cooling fan. Worst case scenario is it needs a new radiator.
-drivers seat bottom and bolster are torn
-some of the plastic pieces in the interior arent installed but I have them
-door panels were splitting and someone before my ownership stapled it in place.
-Hood latch mechanism, at some point before I got the car did not hold, so the fiber Images carbon fiber hood flew up and sustained some damage. this was then professionally repaired but has not yet been painted. At this time, the P.O. added some nice flush mount hood pins. They work well!
-Front bumper is not painted
- Somewhere in the last year or so I started getting impatient and some of the small brackets, fab work is bare metal and not painted.
