Lady driven ... looking for 8grand. Only issue is no deck ( all wires just no deck ) Also small rust under you guessed it rear wheel well.. but yeah its utterly mint otherwise but if this is too much ill walk away

 

I wouldn't call that a "steal of a deal" but it's definatly a fair price.

it's been repainted but looks to be clean

I can't tell from the pictures but it looks like the window tint has been removed? not sure why anyone would do this but its hard to tell from the pics.

nice car though. worth 8k for sure with a reman in it. Especially out west.

 

kk just trying to find out.. getting a lot of different answers left and right... Thing is ill come out and say it now. The car wont stay stock . Im adding bigger turbo , exhaust and injectors. I want 300whp area i will go bigger just not right away.

So thats why im trying to judge the price. If ima be dropping more into it, is it better to get a straight up project car?

Only issue is i know its great condition unlike other cars that may have seen harsher weather. Im open to anything the car is actually posted up on this forum in the back somewhere...

/bump just need to kind of know, i guess its probably better to get a project car and build it up?

 

I don't know why you'd spend 8K on a car you're just going to dump money into anyway. For 300 hp, that's a lot of modding.

Find a car that's cheaper for this kind of project. Have the engine rebuilt and ported. On that motor in that car, cracking it open to port it would be pointless just to have to build the engine again.

 

/nod i figured as much . so next question is anyone have a decent shell for sale ? And how much should i be looking to drop on parts for frame and engine to get it to 300whp ? I have some knowledge but i think someone needs to throw a book of knowledge at me... or /link me

 

Well, you're going to need a turbo car for sure. I think the most power out of an n/a was 200 hp. Other than that, likely an aftermarket EMS (Haltech), large streetport, 1/2 bridge or full bridgeport, big turbo, big fuel pump with large injectors, that sort of thing. Full exhaust wouldn't hurt either. I can't price any of that stuff, but someone else likely has a good idea.

 

^ You wouldn't have to have to port it to get in that power range.

 

Well whatever Snrub, I was just sayin that if rebuilding, it wouldn't hurt.
