I don't think that the car pictured in this thread is an FB, that's also not a 13B-REW.

What was the point of the picture in this thread?

Edit: NVM, that's his sig, right?

Way less than you've put into it. You might me able to get it insured for just over 20k. But I've never seen a 1st gen sell for over 15k

Well, Im hoping to build my '83 w/ an REW for around $10,000. Probally more like $15,000 once I learn of all the goodies to be had. So I would pay that for a complete one in perfect working order assuming it ran 11's or lower. Of course like all FB owners I dont have that much yet.

Also forgot to mention it's a JDM 13B-rew. I took it out a front clip that I bought for MB FD because I needed a new one after an accident. Keep in mind the engine is not in yet I'm just seeing if it's going to be worth it. I'm still deciding though what I want to do with it because it is RHD. I'd imagine there will be some complications since the PS pum/rack will be on the other side an the FB is an lhd.

Or what I could do is take my 13B-rew which is an lhd has 47k original miles an drop that in an just do an rhd conversion to the FD since the clip came with all interior panels as well.

Option 3 is sell the J-spec engine an use some of that money to just do a rebuild on the 12A an maybe a turbo or use that money an buy a TII engine.

It's all in the works I'm just looking for opinions.

Thanks All

Btw ~ That Tri-T51 Spl 20B is my sig... I know you like it but V8 guys don't
