**** I will not part out the car ****

 

good luck with your sale!

 

Thank you! I hope I can sell it with this price because I am losing a lot of $ already. But I gotta take the job so the car has to go to someone else. I spent literally over 13000 for all the parts and labor easily....

 

I would have got it if I lived in IL

Why not put it back to stock and sell it? And than sell the parts?

 

Nice car

Relocation to Japan is a nice consolation

 

Considering all you've put into it, seems like a more than fair price.

 

I don't have the time to part everything out......

 

Good luck with the sale, and so close to home! (i'm in the northern suburbs) Wish I had the money and the space for it.

 

Please spread the words to your friends....

 

That car has a lot of potential. When more dyno time is spent, it shouldn't be a problem to go well over 200whp. $22500 is a good price for all the parts - damn only the Tein RS (remote reservoir!) costs $2K!

 

Nice car - but parts add nothing to the value of a car. Sell them separately if you have time or you will take a bath. $18-$19k is probably a more realistic price.

 

all that work and you are only making 199whp? i dont have half the **** as you an im lucky enough to be at 209whp.

 

I haven't truly spent that much dyno time.
But then again, I am on SAE corrected figure and your dyno may vary depending what standard you are on.

 

You should bring the car to the Chicagoland BBQ, I'd like to see it in person.

Anyone know the Loan Value ona 97?

Suprdave

 

When is that? I have been away and haven't been following the forum

 

I think it's about 16K to 17K for loan value

 

September 29th.

Suprdave

 

Are u planning on getting another car when u get to Japan?

 

Unfortunately, I do not think the loan value is that high.

Good luck with the sale.

and YES you can see numbers way off from one dyno to another!

 

Loan value for a 98 6 months ago was 16850 at 100% (Good luck getting banks to give you 100% ALthough my Credit Union did. Seemed most other banks offered 80%). A 97 was around $15,500.

 

too bad I don't think I canmake it.

 

I need a 4 dr car. thinking about the Aristo. GS300 body with Supra motor.

 

I know you don't have time, but if you spend 1 day to uninstall small pieces, you can easily lower your price to under $19k and have an easier time selling your car.

Things that should be easy to uninstall without breaking a sweat or getting your hands wet:

Mugen 4-1 jdm header (~$750 resalve value)
Spoon Cat (~$150)
Mugen Twin Loop exhaust (~$750)
JDM red recaro (~$1500)
Tein RS coilover (~$1500)
Mugen rear strut bar (~$250)
MoMo Champion steering wheel (~$150)
mugen red shift **** (~$50)
2 sets of MoMo 6 pt. 3inch racing harness (~$?)

 

the only problem is I don't have the oem parts. then it will take me more time to get them....

 

Everyone has the right to charge what they want. It is worth only what someon will pay for it is what my grandfather always told me.

I think you sort of defaced a rare car by selling the original parts to #77 . . . That in itself hurts the price.
