$24,650?



just pass on by that one, you can get GREAT ones for like 16k, and decent ones for $13k...hell i've seen near mint ones go cheap too.



for $26k you can buy Ernie T's 500+hp single turbo rx7 in the for sale section on this forum and it'd be a better deal then buying that autotrader fd.

Dood... buy one with a blown motor that has been otherwise cared for. Should be able t'get one for under $8000.

then send the core in for a rebuild/streetport, $5000 or so...



That'd be a good buy! I have a buddy who got his FD the same way.

He is trying to get a high price because of a ******* magazine.

I payed $13,75 for my first base model with 60k on it.

I payed $16,500 for my recent touring with 40k on it.





Uhmm Justin, Malloy sells engines for $1800 roughly.

$1800 motors?? jesus that is cheap. H22 motors are about 2grand...I am assuming the price does'nt include turbos?
$1800 motors - that's just the "long block" - for lack of a better word.

I thought you wanted it for reliability reasons? Modding it is not going to help. I just bough my car last month. It will become your baby

You have to take very good care of it. If you want somethng you can mod out for cheap keep the Honda.

In other words...treat the car right and it will treat you right.

$7000 was my bill with rebuilt turbos and factory engine (remanufactured). Not sure what you guys are talking about H22

motors, somebody school me on that.



For an extra 1500, I could have gotten a used 20B.
