quoted not for truth. parting out hondas you make a ton more money on then just selling it completely put together.

Ask any one who has bought or sold honda parts. you nOOb:gay:

total paid + total invested - total sold for… i bet does NOT equal a profit…

Conclusion: i doubt you broke even either lol. ☹

just like the r1, just like the dragon 954, just like the gsxr 1000… are you seeing the trend? What about the green crx? oh boy

:picard:

acutally I have broke even on everything except for the gsxr1000 that I put $500 lowers on it:cry:

the only way I would lose my ass is if I put the del sol together with everything. I have like 10k in parts alone for that car including the engine. I will never see that. Look at the kid that dropped 20k or whatever into that white CRX and then sold it already to go and tuned it, for like 6500 give or take.

edit, and this is coming from the guy that crashed his first 4 bikes and had to try and piece them back together then sell them for a total loss. Dont hate

there is NOOO way you sold that for more than 5k…

dont bs me. and the gsxr… please…

**PS. i bought everything and enjoyed it… even if i lost some money on it… they were toys… not investments…**

How much enjoyment did you get out of the delsol that nobody ever saw out on the streets?

well its cool, cuz i bet you learned a ton while working on it :roll:

this would probably fetch atleast 8k if it was together

or you can buy this, and buy everything out of my engine bay for a grand and swap it all in

Jay your crazy if you really think I would sell this car for that.

A full built engine, full forged,only thing left stock in it is the Crank  
Brand New EVERYTHING From Oil Pan To Valves  
Non Sleeved (not looking for crazy boost)  
LSD Tranny  
Great Body  
Sparco Seats  
GT35r Turbo  
Edlebrock Intake Mani  
List goes on and on and on and on

For 4500 yeah right…

**_To Get to $4500_**  
1k For gt35r Turbo and Down Pipe  
1k For the Tranny  
2k for the new Paint Job  
300 for Intake Manifold  
300 for 1000cc Fuel Injectors  
Should I go on?

I will die with this car before I let it go for under 8k with the amount of money I have put into it, and 8k is still taking a HUGE LOSS.

PS Jay what ever happened to your car? Did you fix it and finish it?
