For those wondering what happened I had originally advertised her here in Dec 2019, and then pulled the advert as it was going to go up on Bring A trailer. The car had a persistent check engine light and Bring a Trialer rightly rejected the car as it wouldn't pass emissions. In the meantime I relocated to the UK and left the car with my mechanic friend in Portland, OR. So fast forward to today, the check engine light issue (P0172 code) is finaly resolved: Turns out that the car had been tuned with an exhaust leak, when the exhaust leak was fixed the P0172 code got triggered. It sounds realy simple, but it took a huge amount of work to diagnose & fix it, and I'm greatly indebted to my mechanic - So the car since it was last advertised here has had the fuel injectors tested & cleaned, new camshaft sprocket, exhaust and inlet system completely gone through, pressure tested, leak tested, new seals where required. ECU tune reprogrammed by Adrian Nastasecl.

- RMW Big Valve Head & RMW Street cam
