Parting out tii, what items are most valuable?

I have a mint condition, heavily modified tii that I might have to part out due to customs. I moved to the bay area from Canada and realized that I can't get it registered in calif without paying a bundle to convert back to stock and I can't sell it unless it's registered or I bring it back to Canada and have the buyer drive it accross the boarder.

My question is:
What parts from a turbo II are most sought after and how much should I ask for them?
Thanks,
matt

what year???

the demand for parts is based on what series the car is... for example the s5 tail lights are worth $200/pair FMV right now, but the S4 lights are only worth about $40 for the pair.

it's an 89 tii with 140,000 km. Very clean.
I got a new engine street ported w/ 3mm seals, haltech, fmic, fuel system, 3" exhaust, rc engineering injectors, fd fuel pump, bov, gauges, boost controler, etc.
I put it on the post and offersd to drive it to Vancouver or Calgary for free. no one was interested.

How much are you asking for the: FMIC, FD fuel pump, gauges..

Also, what kind of FMIC, what kind of gauges? BOV? I am very interested in a lot of these parts.

What exhaust is on it?

I am planning on modifying my FC and may be interested!

The New Greddy FMIC. It's way up front, you have to take out most of the bumper.
paid 1100, let it go for 800. about 100 miles on it.
Greddy Type S bov, paid 300 for the kit, 200 takes it.
Greddy EGT, paid $150, $100 takes it
Haltech A/F Monitor, paid 180, 100 takes it.
FD Fuel Pump - $100
I have the New Racing Beat 3" full exhaust. It has the same performance as the old style but has the polished mufflers. Very sweet and very quite. I paid 800 + shipping. I'll let it go for $600 + shipping.
All of these parts have only a 100 or so miles and the car is stored in a garage.

PLEASE SELL IT TO SOMEONE IN CANADA. TIIs are rare as it is, and to have a perfectly good one parted out would be a crime against the rotary gods

Yeah, get someone in another state to buy it... meet them just across the border, sign the papers, and let them drive it back.

Yep. If you want I'm sure some people will help you sell it complete. Right guys? Scott lives in Canada, maybe he can help locally.

I hear ya. It'll break my heart to part it out. I've spent a lot of time and money on this project. I can't really afford to have it any more.
I have a few pics here if you want to have a lok at it,

OT: but can you email me the full size pics of the engine bay shots? I can use those to help figure out some of the vac line routes on the T2 I'm working on. I'd greatly appreciated it.

my email is: imageqst@tampabay.rr.com

if you do decide to part it, you pretty much have a buyer for the haltech.
