Question Part out prices suggestions

Ok might be a strange / odd thread lol. But i havent parted out a car in a long long time. But could use your guys advice..

How much ballpark do RX7 Parts go for nowadays? Been trying to sell my FC For a long *** time and no interest, im at the point where i could potentially make alot more by parting it out.. I know, parting out a full working clean fc is a terrible thing to do, but i dont got room for it and i have my FD sitting in the garage waiting to hit the track, but need to free up space and funds.. im asking 7900 for the FC.

Heres some of the parts.

brand new motor with NEW housings and irons, not remans 5,000kms just finished breaking in. Large streetport, no extra dowells and no studs makes 423whp @15psi

genuine / new garrett TD06 + turbosmart gate / cast ( i think) t4 manifold

clean S5 shell brand new crystal white paint

microtech lt10 + x4 box & 4 bosch HEC-715 coilpacks

corksport fmic

T2 driveline, Lightly used Os Giken Triple plate clutch , feels beefy still

FD brakes / rotors / calipers

new megan racing coilovers

full black interior / really nice custom s5 leather seats

Those are the big things. What you guys think? wait and find a buyer or start tearin' her apart?

Would hate to see that get parted out. I know how you feel though. I have two and was thinking about selling one but honestly probable worth more keeping it for parts. Newer engine in mine too.

Funny how nobody will pay a good price for a car that is together,but will spend MORE in the long run to get their car to be just like the one they See UP for Sale.

That's very true. Funny how things change.. A FC like this would sell in a heart beat in vancouver for 9-10k a couple years ago. Maybe emissions testing and the price of gas and cost of living dropped the price of these cars !

Just hope i can find a buyer for the whole thing soon.. Would hate to part it but you gotta do what you gotta do!

Also i was pm'd that garrett never made a TD06.. So it might be a To4S? Its quite large and spools quick.

Either way thanks for the advice so far guys and STYX Ill keep that in mind! Haha

I recently expressed the same thought but others had a different view. BTW the car looks fantastic, good luck with what ever choice you make.
