Someone MUST know who's car this was!!!

I bought a 03 viii from a guy in NJ, The guy had no idea what was done to the car, Nothing at all.
I can tell by whats done and been done to the car someone at one point in time knew what they were doing with this thing. Its a GSR body, 18" Volk GT-V wheels, IX SE interior, ACD, Mivec swap but HAD a viii engine harness,(curious why) IX turbo, TurboXS RFL bov, AMS intercooler, Some "custom" 3" exhaust, IX tails, IX dash sparco harness bar that wasnt installed, etc.

I just wanna know who's car this was. I wouldnt mind knowing some backround on it. I was told it had rods and pistons that was done by the people at top level, But stuck the camera down to the piston and it looked to be stock pistons. Dunno. Compression is 170 across the board. The car was also missing the front emblem intake and lip. I can also tell the car was in a very minor rear end accident on the passenger side rear quarter area toward the tail light. The car also at one point in time had aem on it. The whole car has been repainted, and it actually has clear! lol. It was also originally from Tampa, FL where it is now

Here's some crappy pics just to show what the car looks like.





Here's a current photo of the car.

They aren't sure what's done to it. They just remember having the car about a year or so ago.

Yeah I guess I have a area of where to start to look for the old owner. Curious why they got rid of it, And why they did a few things to the car like repaint it.(Not that I dont love having clear or anything lol)

It would make sense. This car was GUTTED at one point in time. They even took the runners for the a/c out that go to the vents. Half the stuff in the car was just bolted in enough for it to stay together, When i say it was falling apart, I mean it! All it needed was a few bolts and some super glue, Good as new now.
