    2002 LTU FSAE Car for Sale

    After owning this car for a few years and getting little time to actually work on it, I have decided to offer it up to someone else who may get a chance to get this car back on the track at some point. With life getting crazy and the potential of moving soon, I am selling the 2002 LTU Forumla SAE Car. I purchased this back in 2011 from a previous member of the LTU SAE team and was able to get most of the original parts and get the car extremely close to track ready but very quickly realized I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to programing or tuning an ECU. I have re-created all the CAD for this vehicle in Solidworks as well as completed wiring diagrams for its current (and assumed future) state; both of which are included in this sale (as well as a copy of Solidworks if I can find it). Please feel free to PM me with questions or email me directly at Scruff.mcguff (at) gmail.com

    For some reason I cannot get my photos to attach; email for high resolution photos if interested. Thanks!

    Asking $3200. Currently located in Kalamazoo, MI.


    Current state:

    Vehicle is not in running condition, but needs only a little work to get there (see below). Engine ran off
    of the stock F4i ECU and wire harness in 2014 before being re-wired with the Microsquirt system. Car
    was received in 2011 without any electrical, plumbing, fuel system, or intake and was missing many
    random parts to become a rolling chassis. Since then, the electrical has been 95% completed, all
    “random” parts remade or purchased to make a rolling chassis, and an intake system has been added.
    Original brake lines had rusted through and were removed.


    What it needs to get running:

    1) Finish electrical
    a. Place and wire up battery, wire in fuel pump and fan, and wire in the shift/gear indicator
    b. Program microsquirt ECU

    2) Finish plumbing
    a. Weld in fitting to cooling system for fluid return near oil filter
    b. Hard lines for brakes/clutch cylinder from front to rear to be installed

    3) Fuel System/Fan
    a. Place gas tank and plumb to filter/pump (included) and to engine
    b. Mount fan to radiator


    Vehicle Information:

    600cc Honda CBR F4i (Stock intake)
    Stainless Steel Bent Exhaust with Yoshimira muffler
    Modified Torsen Type 1 Limited Slip Differential

    Unequal Length, Non Parallel Wishbone Suspension

    Keizer Magnesium Center Wheels
    Hoosier R25A Compound Racing Slicks (4 years old, bagged, but dried out)
    Wired for Microsquirt system
    Custom dash with Gear/RPM indicators and individual fan/fuel controls


    Additional Parts (but not limited to):

    Custom vehicle lift (raises up to 3.5ft and up to 600lbs)
    Original Pneumatic air system
    Original dry sump oil system

    Replacement wheel centers
    Other items included:
    Original vehicle design notebooks and data collected from LTU FSAE alumni
    Full rolling chassis, engine components, and brake systems in SOLIDWORKS CAD
    All vehicle calculations, measurements, and formulas for Geometry/Dynamic calculations
