Reasonable. But most people I know have their pretty stock r34 gtt coupes insured for 20k.

they valued it at 20K if it was in mint condition with low K's etc

they said i can buy back the wreck for 7K coz apparently that's what wreckers quoted them for it.

Able to salvage more than $10k in parts from it? If so it's worth it if you don't need the $ in a hurry...

if you can only get back $8k or so, I wouldn't really bother, but if there's a decent amount of money to be made, in a reasonable time frame, do it...

If my car was ever written off, and I got the wreck back, I would've CLEANED UP...would've pocketed something like $35-40k...

nah not worth it i don't see how i'd get anything close to 10K for parts. had over 120Ks on engine/gearbox which was auto so don't think it'd fetch much. also don't really have the space for it. i'd pay up to 3K for the wreck if they agree otherwise i'll pass. wanna get a new car already...

we're still in negotiation atm asking 13K plus the wreck, if they say no then we'll just go for the next best offer i guess. not much we can do

Lol. Drove a manual na 33. Was slow as. Why put effort in something when it wont be worth it. I'll take my na atmo cruiser please. Sell and go a turbo when I'm off my ps.

And you had an na auto mr2... I would rather drive a VT

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
