Looking to sell the beast probably. Or might keep it, it depends really. Im looking to grab a EG hatch and put this motor in as daily driver on boost (for inspection reasons) and get a 240sx and sr20det it.
Here is my ugly car when i brought it home.
Also no flaming about the wheels, they are queer stock rims off of a geo storm. Only idiots leave good rims on in the winter.
Now is this madd Tite JDM or what?

And here it is now, well actually now it has a good hood, si grille, and the moldings put back in. THis pic is like 5 days after a fresh paint job.



Mods I did are
OEM side skirts
Power window swap
Bride front seats
GSR rear leathers
Painted black
5 zigen (true, no fake crap) catback
99-00 front end conversion
DIY CTR headlights
obd2 JDM b18b
JDM gsr trans
skunk 2 front strut bar
skunk2 short shift
new black carpet
mostly black interior, few black integra parts
AEM SRI
Phearable.net chipped obd1 p06 ecu with skunk2 jumper
EX cluster
Full dynamat throughout
Thats about all that I did to it in the last 5 months of owning it. I get bored of cars easily. i believe the longest i ever owned a car was 8 months and that was a 98 GSR. Im just hunting for a clean EG shell to put this motor in and turn the ek back stock.
In this form right now (with the new hood, grille and other crap on) would I be asking too much for $6k?
And if i returned it back to stock (OEM seats, OEM motor, OEM exhaust) left all the other parts on would $4k be too much?

hrmmm i thought those were the newer pics, obviously they are not. I have better pics tomorrow.
Is $4000 too much though to hope for for a 97 cx with 115k on it?

Yup, title is as clean as they come. Ran a carfax before I got it and it was clean. Pretty much everything on the car is good, getting a alignment at school tomorrow.
As soon as I get a EG shell Ill prob slap this motor in the eg and the d16y7 back into this hatch and look for $4000.
It was more F&F before with some ugly huge 18'' rims that i sold on ebay for $400.
