I'm toying with the idea of selling the beast...but don't know where to set the asking price for it. I haven't driven it in 2 years, it's still in the shop being reconstructed and i've kinda lost interest in it now. All of the mods would be completed before i sold it of course..
Chassis has 80Kmiles on it.. 1994 Base, originally Silverstone Metallic
points of interest:
Streetported 20B w/ GT42R single turbo Zero miles on it
UIM, LIM, Intake piping, and exhaust mani extrude honed and ceramic coated
Motec M800 ECU with advanced data logger/ digital dashboard
assorted autometer secondary guages (motec displays everything also)
tube chassis front end
full cage that ties into the tube chassis & side impact bars
19 gallon Fuel Safe fuel cell
inertia switch to shut off fuel pumps incase of wreck
10LB halon system
5lb handheld halon bottle
JimLab diff bushings
Moyer rear control arms
SDA front brake ducts
Stoptech front brakes
99 spec rear brakes
Butler aluminum racing seats
H&R 5 point harnesses
I/O port camera mount
dual Mocal 25 row oil coolers (massive)
no rubber hoses on the car..all replaced with SS braided hose and -AN fittings
side exit exhaust system with provisions for a rear exit exhaust also
all interior removed, aluminum door panels and dash installed
custom V-mount intercooler set-up
custom MONSTER radiator
A/C, P/S and everything else that isn't 100% needed is removed
pettit underdrive main pulley
Greddy underdrive alternator and w/p pulleys
newly rebuilt transmission with close ratio 5th gear
SDA front splitter
Reinforced Mazdaspeed GT-C nose
Mazdaspeed vented hood
KS KD-1 flared front fenders
Pettit flared rear fenders
Rotary Extreme rear diffuser
Mazdaspeed rear wing with extended uprights
Pettit FG rear hatch w/ Lexan window
Re Amemiya sleek headlight kit
Racing Hart rims 18x9/18x10
The car hasn't been dyno'd yet since it's still being put back together at the moment. My goal was/is 2200lbs & 600 rwhp on pump gas.
It will have a fresh paint job on it after the pettit flares and front fenders go on it.
Any ideas where i should start my asking price if i do decide to sell it?

yeah, unfortunately the car is modified so heavily that MOST people couldn't use it. It's a 99% track only car at this point... that still has license plates on it.

its this reason why youve lost the interest... give her a run on a course once your done..
that interest might just come back.. if not.. im interested in the pretty much everything youve got there..

Thet thar be crazy talk, boy! Most people would give their left nut for a car like that. You'll only get a fraction of what you've got invested. Unless you're strapped for cash, keep the beast in the garage and fire it up for trips out to get a Sunday paper and the occasional track day.

yeah, i've given my left nut building the damned thing! I'm planning to be over here in Iraq for another year and a half also.... w/ 2 short vacations during that time period. So, i might get to drive it once(??) before 2008.
Who knows, i might hold onto it just long enough to do the One Lap of America with it next year then sell it............or part it out.

that's where you're wrong Ronin.... after 9 1/2 years with this car... the magic has kinda worn off... it's just a 12 y/o car now that's worth a fraction of what i've dumped into it.
I'd much rather build my new house at this point.
