94 Chaste White LS3 FD3S

[ls3_rob]

Has it had significant body work done? The front driver fender and the left headlight cover look a different shade of white. It also looks like the whole fender may have been replaced and you can see line at the bottom of the door jamb when the driver door is open. Is that accurate?

What are the options on this car for a larger fuel pump utilizing the existing tank and fuel lines?
If I were to purchase I would put a Procharger on it is why I ask.
Has the car ever had paint or bodywork? I see there's holes in the trunklid, what are those from?

Thanks!

I believe there has been body work on the car over the years, the car has had multiple owners and I believe that the hood has been resprayed and blended with the front fenders. Sometimes you can kinda see a difference in the shading with the right light/angles. Or maybe a previous owner had a CF hood for quite a few years and switched back, leaving the fading in the paint not exactly equal. According to the AutoCheck report I ran, I am the 7th owner. The car looks pretty good from 5+ feet away, but it is a 20+ year old car and if I was gonna keep it, I would have it resprayed eventually, or maybe vinyl wrapped. If you want show quality, it is not that. It's always parked in a garage, but it doesn't live there, I enjoy the car regularly, not just on meets/show days.

Question for some of the guys out there that have these swapped cars. I have a buyer lined up, but he's worried about emissions in his specific county in VA. I'm registered in FL so I know nothing of these issues, how are people getting these cars registered and emissions/smog tested. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Would really like to close a sale but we have to find a solution to this first.

Has he contacted local emissions place to see if he has to have emissions? In IL, anything pre 1995 doesn't. And some counties don't require it. I have my truck registered at my parents place because their county doesn't require emissions. If they do require it, is it just a snif test?  If so, I think that's pretty easy to beat.

Just sell the car to me. 

Here in california, a lot of the car scene guys i know have to pay an unscrupulous smog guy to give them papers that say their cars "pass." If a car is being registered from another state to california, a dmv official or an authorized third party has to look over the car and verify the vin.

He called them this morning, and the guy said that the emissions components that came on the car must be ON the car to pass emissions. It's a 1994 RX-7. They basically told him, they don't care if it has cats, or is the E-rod crate motor that's 50 state smog compliant. If it's a swapped motor, and the original emissions equipment is no longer on the car. It fails and will always fail. Which I believe he WAS told that, but there's literally tons of these swaps around so we're just trying to find a solution to this problem or determine if it REALLY is one.

FL required me to do the same thing when I bought the car. Had to have the VIN verified by a dmv official, police officer, or Mazda dealership. That was the only thing I had to do. The car is going to a good home with this guy hopefully, so I'd like to help him out with fixing the issue and complete the sale, but it will be up for sale again if we can't find out a way around this for him. I appreciate your interest, I'll keep you posted.

maybe start a new thread asking if there are any VA swaps that have passed and how they did it.

I'm in Texas, not worried about emissions issues and want this car. If it comes up for sale please let me know, it'll look great in the garage next to my 1000whp 300Zx TT also white. Thanks!
