Planned on keeping this thing forever but I have a child on the way so change of plans. My plan was to perfect the suspension which I did, then move onto the engine and eventually turbocharge which is why I’m running 3’ piping and a Walbro fuel pump NA.Just got it inspected a few weeks ago and just got it aligned to custom specs a week ago. I know I won’t get back all the cash I put into it and just knowing that someone else will reap the benefits of all this work I’ve put into it makes me cry.Spent over $5,800 on aftermarket parts alone and thats not including maintainance parts or service. So whats the MOST you think I can get for it? Including ricers and kids on 780 tuners as potential customers. ![http://xs201.xs.to/xs201/06224/8bvn.jpg](http://xs201.xs.to/xs201/06224/8bvn.jpg) ![http://xs201.xs.to/xs201/06224/240.jpg](http://xs201.xs.to/xs201/06224/240.jpg) I’ll try to get some more pics soon but really most of the work is internal. And if you wanna throw me some offers that would be great as well. If you wanna do some trades + cash I’m up for that as well providing the part is not too dificult to remove. Thanks P.S i gutted the motorized antenna but who listens to radio, a few rear interior pieces are removed as well but that can be arranged to be placed back in, pics show drl’s removed but those have been put back in ---

Looks very clean. I’d start at $6500 on the boards, $8500 after the movie comes out. :E ---

Yeah, I think Jeff is right. Unfortunately aftermarket parts don’t really raise the black book value of a car very much. But since the car looks really clean, thats 90% of your value right there. I’d start with $6,500 for the general public too. 12,000 after tokyo drift comes out. :lol:\ ---

The only probelm is that some kid will look at it and say this car sucks, 15’ wheels and no bodykit. Then the same kid will go buy some beater with a $1000 paint job, some cheap bodykit and cut springs for the same price. I think I’ll try listing for $8900 obo and lowering the price as necessary. ---
