More in depth:

Engine:

JDM Gen 2 3SGTE
Starts/runs great. 
Maintenance kept up with
No known issues
Only modifications done to it: Greddy BOV, side mount intercooler, walboro 255lph fuel pump, egr block off plate and a megan exhaust. Due to the EGR blockoff plate being installed, the check engine light is on. Comes on during driving and not at idle. I belive to pass inspection all this car needs to be able to pass is safety due to it's age. The engine runs just fine and there is no concern to be had.



Drivetrain:
5 speed. Haven't checked if it's the one with LSD or not. Shift smooth, though clutch master feels weaker than it should. New rear wheel bearings.

Suspension:

Suspension could use an alignment, as the front inner and outer tie rods are fairly new. As it is, it's not too far off. 

Wheels/tires:

Rims are on spacers, and from an RSX. Tires in the front are pretty decent shape, Dunlop SP wintersport m3s. The rear tires are brand new Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSI

Body: 

The body metal wise is in fantastic shape, no rust except on the bottom of the drivers side door. However, the clearcoat is peeling, and the red is faded in a few spots, thanks to the Florida sun. There are areas where the paint is even chipping. This is the only thing that takes away from the car besides the aftermarket front bumper. It still needs aligning, and the corner light is missing. Have a replacement home made one ready to mount. Headlights are HID, and fog lights work perfect. The windshield has a hairline crack in the middle (check pictures)

Interior:

Interior is in pretty decent shape. The drivers side leather seat is FUBAR, and has a cover on it. The passenger side seat is pretty rough. I have the cover for it, just never put it on. Other than that dash and interior panels are in good shape, minor imperfections. The interior is complemented with a Greddy Barometric Boost Gauge, Grant GT wheel, JDM gauge cluster, HKS Turbo Timer, and an Eclipse CD-3422 head unit. Switch to the electric fans as well. Ttops do leak a little, and come with interior covers.

This is an awesome car, that's plenty of fun to drive. However with a family and 2 other cars I'm trying to finish, this is the least practical one to own for myself. I'd like to see it go to a good home, as I've barely driven it since ownership, and have done my best to maintain it.

A VIN check on the car shows an odometer discrepancy. I have no idea as to why, as the odometer matches the title, and was not told about this upon registering (usually the registrar will bring this up). The only thing that comes to mind is because of he engine/cluster swap. Also it should be noted with the vin check there is an accident report on it. The front was scraped pretty bad but no frame damage was sustained. 

The car will come with books to the alarm which needs to be programed, original Toyota books, leather cased thing for the factory jack, and several new parts that were not needed.

Toyota FCV Concept comes one step closer to reality

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

When Toyota first conceptualized a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle for mainstream Americans to drive, the initial response was pretty skeptical. Still, through relentless engineering and solid product after solid product, Toyota has built the Prius brand into the dominant force in the hybrid car market.
Something like that plan of attack is what the Japanese company is preparing for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, as well, and that attack is seeing a critical salvo fired today with the debut of this FCV Concept at the Tokyo Motor Show.
Though there's nothing substantive to be said about rumors of a 300-mile range or a sticker price around $50,000, the FCV concept does offer a few technical details. The sharp-beaked concept makes use of two high-pressure hydrogen tanks and boasts a power output density of three kilowatts per liter.

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells

Sat, Jan 10 2015

Toyota is serious about hydrogen fuel cells, and it wants the auto industry to follow suit. The Japanese automaker said this week it's releasing 5,680 fuel cell patents from around the world, including technologies used on its upcoming sedan, the 2016 Mirai. The move is unusual, but not unprecedented, as Tesla similarly released its electric vehicle patents last year. The idea for Tesla, and now for Toyota, is to spur development of alternative propulsion. "By eliminating traditional corporate boundaries, we can speed the development of new technologies and move into the future of mobility more quickly, effectively and economically," said Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales senior vice president of automotive operations, in a statement. Toyota's fuel cell patents will be free to use through 2020, though patents related to producing and selling hydrogen will remain open forever. Toyota said it would like companies that use its patents to share their own hydrogen patents, but won't require it. "What Toyota's doing is really a logical move, and really a good move for the industry," Devin Lindsay, principal powertrain analyst with IHS Automotive, told Autoblog. The announcement was made at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It comes as Toyota prepares to launch the hydrogen-powered Mirai in a limited number late this year in California. The launch will be extended to the Northeastern United States next year. Toyota also has announced plans to support networks of fueling stations in each region to try to smooth consumer adoption. The Mirai has a 300-mile range on a tank of hydrogen, and it takes about five minutes to refill. Fuel cells have been receiving increased attention recently, and Audi and Volkswagen debuted hydrogen-powered cars at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Honda, another proponent of the technology, also showed its updated FCV concept in November in Japan. The company, however, has delayed its fuel cell sedan a year until 2016. Like Toyota, Honda says its hydrogen-powered car will have a range of 300 miles or more. Meanwhile, Hyundai currently offers leases for fuel-cell powered Tucsons, which have a 265-mile range, in Southern California. Despite the optimism some automakers have for fuel cells, the technology still faces barriers. A lack of filling stations has long held it back, and many consumers are not familiar with the potential benefits.

2014 Toyota Corolla shows its new Euro-spec nose [w/poll]

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

After tons of teasing, Toyota finally unveiled the all-new 2014 Corolla in the wee hours of the - at least to those of us here in the Midwest. The fresh new face of the US-spec car takes a number of cues from the Camry and Avalon sedans, and in S trim with the large alloy wheels and blacked-out front fascia, we'd even venture this is the most boldly styled North American Corolla to date (faint praise as that may be).
Of course, our friends in other markets will also be getting fully updated versions of the Corolla as well, and here, we're getting our first glimpse at the European-spec car, complete with a very different front fascia that, at least in this trim, seems to take a more conservative design approach. A quick poll of the Autoblog staff shows that we're torn as to whether or not we prefer this European look to our North American-specific car, but at least in the sporty-ish S trim, we think the Americans may have got the better end of the deal.
The Euro-spec Corolla actually shares a lot of its design with its larger platform-mate, the Auris, a car that we don't - and likely won't - get in the States. Inside, the European Corolla looks basically the same as the NA car, and while market-specific engines and specifications haven't been released yet, it's expected that the Corolla will share much of its dirty bits with the European Auris, as well.
