Details
This is the track car that I never tracked.Since owning it in September 2015, I put about 9,000 daily driver miles and 2 autocrosses. In April of 2016, the supercharger started making some bad sounds so I sent it to Jon Bond Performance and it was rebuild. Since this time, I put about 2,000 street miles on the car and one more autocross.The last autocross in August of 2016 Lime Rock Park the clutch gave it quits and I decided to retire it from DD duty and make it a dedicated track car. At this point, I stripped the car of all nonessential go-fast parts.I pulled the engine to fix a leak in the oil pan gasket, installed a JO Motorsports 5 speed transmission, 949 clutch, crafted a DIY splitter from the plethora of knowledge in the MT. Race Prep forum, and was ready to go. The maiden voyage, a full twelve miles, everything was perfect, ideal air/fuel ratio, the new transmission was shifting perfectly, I was pretty happy. The next day, I started it up and it was running fine, and then out of nowhere, the oil pressure dropped to 9 psi, it would move with revs to 30-40, but dropped to 9/8 at idle. There are no bad noises, but something is definitely wrong with the oil pressure. My guesses? There was definitely some oil sludge when I dropped the pan to fix the leak, perhaps some sludge is partially blocking an oil galley as it also sat for a long time when the supercharger was being rebuilt and from August until a month ago. Maybe the pump is bad? I am just done dealing with this project. I don’t have the heart to pull the engine again to figure it out. I figure if I do not get any serious bites over the next couple weeks, I will just part it out. I think a fair price is $10,000 considering I have way more than double into it and it needs very little to be amazing. The only other bad thing I can think of is that the turn signal stalk is broken, I hit it with the dash when removing it and it cracked.
What I would do if I were to keep it
Singular Motorsports GT250 Wing or Blackbird Fabworx Spoiler
