    Default Citation FB - SOLD

    2008-9 Citation FB, FC, FF
    I recently bought this car from Laverty. I’ve decided to build a brand new 2014 one from scratch. There are a lot of excellent components that I can scavenge from it so I can sell this package in many different configurations (whole or partial) based on your preference.

    The whole car as purchased, at a discount ($5k loss) $25,000
    This is a complete Citation FB:
    - 2008/2009 version chassis.
    - The only Citation with 2011+ ZX-10R power
    - Specially design BRD dry sump
    - Limited slip diff
    - AIM EVO4 with many sensors including CAN line from ECU
    - oil/coolant heat exchanger
    - Big PFC brakes
    - Stainless Burns header, high velocity collector, and muffler
    - Stock Kawi dash on the dash (great tach as well as fault code reader)
    - Fuel cell just pulled, inspected, and cleaned
    - HRP diffuser
    - Ohlins Suspension with Hyperco Perches

    Spares:
    - 2 extra sets of wheels - one with never used rains
    - Extra slightly raised nose with single wing
    - Extra high speed upper rear wing
    - Wing endplates
    - Rotors, hats
    - Brand new spare A-Arms for every corner
    - Bare new chain, 1 new front sprocket, 2 new rear sprockets

    FB Chassis configuration: $15,000
    Chassis, Steering Rack, Pedals, Master cylinders, ARB, Fuel Cell (w/pump), oil pan , ZX10 engine cage, side pods, 2 nose/wing, shock cover, rear wing, diffuser, Set of A-Arms etc, Set of wheels.

    FB, FC, FF Chassis with extras: $10,000
    Chassis, Steering Rack, Pedals, Master cylinders, Fuel Cell, Set of A-Arms etc, nose/wing, rear wing and other bits, set of wheels


    The car as a whole is fine. As a complete package at $25k it is worth way more in just parts. This is arguably the best chassis you can get your hands on (rarely available). This car has a lot of highly competitive parts. As a very competitive regional car it just needs some time to go through it. If you want to make is super nationally competitive (like my old one or JR’s) it’s going to take more time and $$. I can and will help with anything needed from sourcing parts to getting a full rebuild done (if wanted). In the right situation I can delivery this car ready to win a championship (just add driver). Been going through this car for the past month and I know exactly what it needs and what it would take to make this car bad ass.

    For everyone interested, I'm going to have Eric Langbein car build my new car. He also said he'd be excited to build another Citation at the same time. So this can be a great opportunity to have one of the best Citation builders put this car together for you the right way. For anyone that doesn't know him, he built Tim Minor's Citation (2013 F2000 Championship Champ). He is really nice guy and excellent at what he does, plus very reasonable in his fees. Anyone that know Citation knows that the hardest part is getting them built. This is a rare chance get one done right.

    Car back on market. I had to deal with 3 weeks of getting strung along by a Sh*t talker that had more excuses than my 4 year son trying to get out of going to school. Luckily got another real straight up guy that wants it but I'm letting everyone know that if you have interest give me a ring
