If your just trying to figure out how much it's worth, this thread should be in the Pits or something. If you are trying to sell it, you need a price in your thread. I would say 4-5 thousand tops.

I dont understand where you say its highly modded. Your list doesnt say the motor has been rebuilt with forged internals so that is kind of a downer on the price. Lot of nice parts but if someone is going to give you a good buck, then the car needs to be able to handle 15psi at least. Plus some dynosheets would help you as proof of the car's potential.

Most of the parts are show and I doubt that manifold is equal length, measure it out. Runners 2-3 appear longer than 1-4. Reason I mention that is if you tell someone its equal length and they can see its not than your credibility goes right down the tubes and you look like a poser.

Not to kick you in the balls at all but i would say 7000.00 tops in my book, you might find a buyer who really likes the car for 7k-10k if you have a good dynoseet showing 350WHP+. Better off parting out the racing seats and maybe some of the other non-power adding parts.

The reason I said "highly modded?" is because I know some people would consider it to be and some wouldnt hance the "? mark". As far as I know the manifold is equal length...it may not be though. I dont really care exhuast goes through it and the turbo spins quickly with no problems its good in my book. I dont think I'll part it out for 2 reasons 1: I dont think its worth the time and effort and 2: I dont think I will sell anytime soon anyway. I am getting HRC portfueler for it and I'm building a motor as we speak, with all the goodies. Pretty much what every 2gnt turbo guys do. but I'm doing it very slowly just like everything else I've ever done. if I take my time I know its done right plus I get things ALOT cheaper taking my time doing business. Thanks for your comment Terry.

I think you can get more out of it if you take the turbo kit off. A lot of people will buy that car on eBay regardless of what's under the hood.

But 7,000 as it sits seems fair.

I got 10,000 for my GS without the turbo kit. I did get really lucky, but its possible. Just be patient and wait for the right person to come along. The body work and paint on my car was outstanding which i believe was the main reason i got what i did.

Yep.

Not only do they not know what's inside the engine but they dont know the age of everything, the level of abuse parts have gone through....none of that.

But...i'm not going to lie, i'd buy it in a heartbeat if i had the money. I'd sell all the r(ice) and put the money back into the motor and drivetrain. Then, i'd proceed to make the money back at the track. emoji

Right, even if you could sell the rice parts for 2k, have fun "making your money back" with your mid-high 14 second car. lol

Don't sell your car to 16 year olds...
