I find them all the time. I got a T2 for $500. Had a dent in the hood and that was it, body, insides were perfect.

I also got 2 other RX7s one for $300 and the other for $400. Both were supposed to be blown. I had both running within 3 hours of getting them home.

I sold all 3 cars and made over $3000 profit...over the pirce of the cars and anything I fixed.




Just last week I found a T2 mint condition garage kept lady driven first owner. wouldn't start from sitting, she got a new car. $400.00 But the guy who went and looked for me took it for himself before I could get it. His daugter needed a car. WTF not a turbo.. hello....

don't get it, Its not worth it...


T2 are around all the time for less than $1000 and sometimes they run for that price..


Bottom line a blown T2 is not worth $1500. or $1000

i would pay maybe 1200 for a MINT condition TII with a blown engine. ******* 2500 that guy is out of his mind, i would only pay that much for a great shape/near mint RUNNING TII. That guy must think its an FD or some ****.

To get a decent S4 TII here, you're looking at about 5-8 grand. For a s5 in good condition, probably more like 11-15k (remember, thats CDN funds though). Imo, I got a wicked deal on my car. Nothing is wrong w/ it but needing a motor. Maybe paint it in a year.

damn i would take it in a second for 1k if you were close. I can't seem to find any in my area for under 2k blown or running. I guess i'll just keep looking. Let me know if any of you guys run across one.

Omg...

So you're talking about a whole car?

Wow...

Like dRox said (I'm guessing your in Australia bro?) here for even an alright S4 Turbo it'd cost around $6,000+ at least!

I'd say yes on the T2 10A, but HELL NO on the blown TII you spoke of earlier unless you're really hard up for a TII. Man I wish I had a grand right now, I'd be on my way to Jersey right freakin' now! Anyway, where are you located in Jersey, and how far from Delaware do you think you are. Also what's wrong with the car (I know it's blown) in the first place?

A side note you guys might now have noticed...the topic in the thread is "blown TII". Isn't that kinda funny, the first thing I thought of was a turbocharged (the normal nomenclature for "BLOWN") TII...I realized what it was before I read it, but it was just funny.

I usually match blown to supercharged, because its a blower. A turbo really isnt.

1500$ for a 10ae in good condition, id buy it. If you dont lemme get the seller details, Ill buy it

I usually say that for superchargers too, but most people immediately think of turbochargers due to the fact that they're more "mainstream".
