Talked to the guy today, as I will go to look at this car:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...7147&rd=1,1
Currently its not running, but for the price if it stays under 4k would be worth it. Will take pictures and update people as needed.

Well, I put a downpayment on it and will be picking it up in two weeks. It hasnt ran for two years because he wasn't with the car. I talked him down to 3,000 for the whole car. Also, It already has a SMT on it, so I will be selling some of the parts I bought for my car. Also, I will be selling my truck and turning my elantra back into a daily driver. I'll keep everyone updated.

I think he's lying.
The first time he posted that sale he said it ran.
Now he hasn't driven it, but it won't run?...hmm
I think he's been driving it un-tuned, and probably put a LOT of harsh wear on the motor.
But, it does look nice, and that bumper is VERY rare.
good luck

good luck man.. that guy has changed the things he has said MANY times about that car.. he told me it ran, and drove, but only at low boost, cuz it would bogg too much.. i said i would buy it, but i wanted him to put stock injectors back in, he said he would, and never got back to me..
now it supposedly dont run AT ALL. and he has the smt6 and not wired up yet?

He told me he drove it for a break in period of 1,200 miles untuned. Which would not hurt the motor because thats just way rich. It has a SMT6 he didnt even realize was on the steering colum. When I get it I am going to take the head off and check it out from there and make sure everything is good. My other priority is to get my J2 back up and running first. Swap out the Koyo Radiator, unhook and sell the SMT, and get it back to daily driving.
