Ultra-Clean Z06 Killer - LS1/T56 Mazda Rx-7 - Forged/Heads/Cam - CLEAN

Up for sale is my ultra-clean, ultra-fast 88 Mazda Rx-7. The car has a clean title. The car has a brand new forged motor (less than 1,000 miles) as well as a built transmission (details below). I am selling the car because I am graduating from law school in May and will be starting my own law practice upon passing the bar so I've decided to sell a few toys to come up with some extra capital. The swap was meticulously performed by Tick Performance in Mount Airy, NC (http://tick-performance.com/). Further work has been done by Transmission Physicians of Tampa, FL. The car has only been to the 1/4 mile one time, and with a very soft launch it ran a 12.08 @ 118.9 mph in 80 degree Florida heat. This was before the car was tuned and prior to further modifications. I have no doubt this car will do low to mid 11s on the motor, and because it is forged, it is only a nitrous system away from running deep 10s (if not lower). The car is a Turbo II model which was the performance model of the 86-91 Rx-7s. It came with an 8" clutch-type LSD that is actually quite strong from the factory. There is at least one V8-powered Rx-7 using this stock differential that is running in the 9s and many, many more running in the 10s and 11s. This car does not have AC or power steering. If you've never driven a car without power steering, you honestly won't miss it unless you're trying to turn the wheels when you're dead stopped in a parking lot. Otherwise, the steering response is much better.
