6 Bolt from a 91, Rebuilt withing 25k miles

Clutch, ACT 2600 with Street Disc
Flywheel, ACT EXACT Streetlite

I think you should quit letting people do your work for you! If that were a bone stock 99 GSX with 60k on it, i would say go for it, but you dont want to buy someone elses project, especially if you dont know anything about where it came from, and who built it.

I agree that sometimes you don't want to deal w/ other peoples modded cars. Especially if the engine is from a different car. I'd buy a BPU car though.

2009 Corolla S - waiting until 2012 for my next toy!
*SOLD* 1992 3000GT VR4 - pearl white and 45,6xx miles!
*SOLD* 2007 Subaru Legacy GT sedan
*SOLD* 95 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 - BPU
*SOLD* 97 Eclipse GS Star Stage 2

First off, there is no way he put in a rebuilt 6-bolt and a shep tranny just to run a t-25. He had a much bigger turbo on there. If it had a bigger turbo, front mount, etc and it was in great condition inside and out, I would consider paying that much. But not knowing all of the previous mods, and what he has done to it (as far as abuse) I wouldn't offer more than $11k.

'95 GSX - New motor/turbo going in...
'95 TSi AWD - For sale...buy me!
'03.5 MazdaSpeed Protege - Stock daily driver
'97 CBR 600 - Purple is a real man's color

he said he's selling it to get an EVO, so maybe he kept the turbo and intercooler for that (i know evos have FMICs, but maybe it's bigger than stock). He said he would strip all the mods and sell it to me for the blue book price, but I wouldn't be able to get a shep stage 3 tranny, ACT clutch, and a flywheel for under $4k. I dunno. Sucks that I pretty much need a car ASAP, since I'm having problems with mine

i asked about that, and he said that it was a 10 second car before he decided to sell it. he said he took off most of the bolt ons, and that is when he rebuilt the engine. it's probably the best one i can find in the next week that is close to me. what do u think? thanks for the help guys.

He's lying.


well he said that the 6 bolt that was in there was built, and now it's a 6bolt with stock internals. i dunno. i just wish i could find a fucking stock 2GB AWD DSM with a tan interior. thats all i want.

If you are willing to pay $12.5K for a 2g (and $11.5K for a 1g), why not just spend an extra $6K and get a used Evo? I'm sure you can find one for about $18k. Just another idea.

Oh, and people who have 10 sec 2g's get an Evo as a daily driver or winter beater

Eh, I wouldn't really consider those deals since a lot of them have either a lot of miles or something wrong with them. You're right though, I never would've expected to see them under $25k.
