meh, worth more than that to me.

i'll just rebuild it and enjoy it.

Whatever a car is worth to you means nothing. It's what it is worth to someone else. I understand you may have spent money on the car but modifying cars you will NEVER make your money back. Not even close.

TBH you are still at least 3k shy of what someone would be looking at paying.

If you wanted to maximise your profit Part the aftermarket/Engine parts that are fine out and sell as rolling shell.

But seriously just throw it in storage till you fix it. Good luck.

I totally understand that a car is only worth what someone is willing to pay. That's why I said I'll just keep it.

I'm not desperate for the cash so I'll just throw it in storage till I get time to fix it.

Buy my 26 I have for sale mate for $3500. Then strip your engine and sell it in peices. You'll get around $2k in parts for your engine. Its a cheap and easy fix! All it will cost you is $1500 and a couple weekends of your time.

Have a think about it. There used to be a lot of money 5-6 years ago when I used to do it buying cars like yours for 8-9k. Do as I mentioned above and sell them for 15-16k.

Well i've got a new project and have no room/time for this thing anymore.

Will consider reasonable offers for it as is or as a rolling shell.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
