FS: 818R Kit; 12kOBO
818R kit with rebuilt engine, transmission, chassis, and body FS. Selling because I need the space in the garage for other projects; unlike the kits from FFR, this one is ready to go today without having to wait into 2023 and/or see if FFR is even still producing them.
Note: non-insulting but nevertheless lowball offers will be entertained. I need the work space and given the provenance of this body, I'd prefer that someone take it who will use it rather than consigning it to the dump. But that will happen soon if nobody wants this car.
Body is the same body used in the car reviews in Road & Track, Car & Driver, etc., back when FFR debuted the car, but not the prototype chassis. Chassis has been somewhat modified during the build (as shown in photos). I'll be glad to answer questions but included in sale is everything currently attached to the chassis plus the body and, generally, all components which came from FFR with the original purchase of the kit. Some aluminum panels have probably been repurposed (they sent panels for the non-R too), but IIRC everything (or nearly everything) is still there for a complete build. Specifically included is the following, there are certainly additional parts not listed as the list is too voluminous):
Modified chassis:
Upgraded chassis (increased rear trans mount strength, puts transmission at correct angle)
Upgraded roll hoop (added plates where round tube meets square tube, extra backstays)
818R body kit: used in all the magazines, featured in the FFR 818 video: https://youtu.be/zUov6GelTkE
ZDb front fender, hood, rear deck, hump louvers & turbo heat shield
Custom rear wing mount
FFR fiberglass quarter panel scoop plenums (uninstalled)
818S windshield frame, glass windshield (never installed -- but windshield is cracked and probably unusable except as a template if you wanted to make a screen from Lexan)
Engine & Transmission:
EJ205 motor (2007(?) WRX)
Mishimoto racing thermostat
ARP Head stud kit
Cometic head gaskets installed
TGV tumbler valve delete
No oil pan
New exhaust header, downpipe
Stage 8 turbo bolt kit
Gutted oil pump for dry sump
New timing belt
Stock alternator
Poly/race engine and trans mounts
Stock ECU
ACT Performance Street clutch disc SB3/SB5 (with new pilot bearing, release bearing)
OS Geiken LSD (installed; stock diff retained, in box)
ZDb bellcrank shift kit with correct-length telecables (shifter available)
ZDb A2W intercooler kit
Suspension & Steering:
FFR Red Koni shocks
Stock FFR 818R springs
Baer 3851001 front Tie rod ends
VCP rear trailing arms (NIB, never installed)
ARP press-in wheel studs (installed)
Stock steering rack
Momo Steering column adapter for 6-bolt steering wheel (MOMO, Sparco, etc.)
07(?) WRX wheels, street tires (hold air, will roll)
Brakes:
07(?) WRX Calipers, rotors
Speed bleeders (front calipers)
Stainless brake lines
Brake, clutch slave, and coolant lines routed, connected, leak-tested
Factory ABS pump installed
Additional not photographed:
Extra set of headlights (old horizontal style)
Original fuel tank
Additional parts not listed above.
Chassis currently sits on Subaru factory wheels and old tires. Also have a set of semi-custom wheels which are not included in sale, but can be negotiated. All wheels are NIB Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 Alloy wheels, Gloss Anthracite, never installed, never mounted. 6 front wheels in 15x7, 5x100, 40mm offset, 6 rear in 17x9, 5x100, 40mm offset. Wheel sizes were optimized for availability of racing slicks and to ensure front wheel/tire package would not rub on the tub.
Price is OBO but all must be picked up in Dallas, TX by buyer; will not ship or box/crate anything for shipment. Please inquire with any additional questions ([email protected]), additional photos available at this link.

I notice you listed the 818C windshield frame and glass. Do you mean 818S, or do you actually have the whole roof for a coupe?
E: looked at the photos, looks like just the S windshield and frame
