Asking $3000/bo.

Heh, so much similarities between mine. Good luck with sale.

Whats next??

Haven’t decided that part yet. I have a few ideas floating around. S2000, WRX, Miata, 240SX… something AWD or RWD that would make a decent auto-x car. Drop me an IM sometime.

good luck with sale. that car has been surprisingly reliable. are any parts from my eclipse still on it? :slight_smile:

side mount and ducting. the 1G bov (paint removed) and flange in the “additional parts” section is yours as well. wish i had asked you about those wheels way back when. :wink:

the 18" wheels i bought from joestypes’ rsx? i ended up selling those for next to nothing in long island. oh well. parts like to get around :slight_smile:

no, no… your OEM GSX wheels that you tossed.

the car is sold now, btw.

Mind me asking how it sold? i am trying to sell my '95 and am getting no interest.

And I need it gone.

my approach:

  • lots of details
  • lots of pictures
  • honesty
  • knowing which typical DSM maintenance items have been addressed or should be addressed (timing belt, water pump, crankshaft pulley, etc…) and listing them
  • knowing what the car is worth

Did you list it on Ebay? or Autotrader?

Nope, only put it on 3 forums: Roclife, RochesterDSM, and this one. I would have put it on WNYDSM if I was a member as well.

Hmmm…
