Just as the title says i hav e a 2000 teg gs-r 4dr and im not sure if its worth selling due to not alot of people looking for a gs-r 4dr. i bought the car on a whim and still havent gotten through it bugs it has 107xxx on it and it seemed to be running rich with a lower idle (300-400 rpm) and throwing o2 codes so i got 2 new one and put them in not much of a change but a little better mpg (ave 25.3) so i tried new plugs, wires, iacv, and checked the impedence of the injectors in along with i replaced the vavle seals, head gasket, timing belt water pump, valve cover gasket and cam seal just to be sure everything was in proper order. the only code it throws is #45 too rich or too lean. so now you all know the issues so do i wash my hands of it and attempt finding a buying for it and get a new project or keep it?

 

Sell me the car, i <3 db8s

 

keep it, you could buy a "new" car and it could be 100% worse. at least with your car you know what you got.

 

you do gotta point there coopa

 

Oh man I would have loved owning a 2000 db8! I would've chose a db8 over a dc2 especially a year 2000 one! All I found on Craigslist were beat up high mileage db8s, you have a gem there buddy, keep it and cherish it.

 

you can't beat a nice 4 door sedan gs-r

 

Keep it

 

There IS a market for them, I've been looking and its rare to find a gsr sedan in AZ that's not a egay baby or hack job. A lot of the local market depends on location. There's still places out there that believe domestic is better(its not and we know this-especially fwd)

 

Here's a flow chart for you:

Do you want to keep it? Go to A
Do you want to sell it? Go to B

A: Keep it
B: Sell it

 

swap out gsr block and keep for rebuild... buy $500 b20 throw it in there and sell it.

 

ive always liked gsr sedans because there so uncommon. keep it! Love the way they look with jdm front ends

 

thats is the most F@#ked up scam I have ever heard. A GSR sedan gets its value from being a true GSR sedan, ripping people off I hope comes to bite you in the ***.

 

A good inspection/test drive will reveal this. If someone gets scammed they almost deserve it for not doing their homework. This is why I trust hardly anyone when it comes to vehicles. What a douche- buyer beware.

 

^^ most people have no idea. So I'd imagine its pretty easy to screw someone over with. Ive seen some other shady stuff like that as of late. NOT cool.. smh

 

Id keep it just get it runnning right. I really like db8's.

 

not saying to rip someone off, just keep the gsr block for a race build later. I have an LS chassis with lsvtec turbo. I built whats in it... Gsr tranny with ls 5th gear.... it all depends on the person, its not a scam, its called a come up. you dont have to sell it as if it had a gsr block in it.

 

its called ethics.. get some

 

There's nothing wrong with swapping in a B20 as long as the buyer knows it's a B20.

 

Ill take it. I'd love a gsr sedan. I got kids n it would make a great turbo project. Lol

 

I wish I kept mine...GSR sedans getting hard to find

 

Visit phx, you can get a nice one for 3-4k

 

i say it to myself every time. i should have gotten a 4 door gsr.

but o well maybe in the future


keep it. 4 door gsr are pretty hard to come by

 

i could care less if it had its motor pulled. if the price is adjusted and obviously i would be able to tell myself its a b20. yah some people may not know but thats why you would do the research.

i would end up pulling the motor myself and swaping in something nice :]
