I'd say no less than 500 bucks for it. I need the cash. No trades or anything. Unless you got a Turbo II with a blown motor???

I have a TII (It's stripped, I donno why you'd want it) and a blown TII motor to go with it, if thats what you want, if at least to bring the price down.

Anyone need high quality tools?

My friend Mark sells them at VERY affordable prices, you can get some MAC or Snap-On tools cheeper then you could get brand new Craftsman stuff. He sells all kinds of things. very cool guy, he'll also buy your old tools if they are decent quality! His number is 301-898-1705. Tell him Jason sent you

prob stronget voltage running thru yer car now. battery helps stabilize the voltage from the alternator. older batteries are more like resistors. wont get as good a signal or spark. i noticed the same different in the supra when i went from a super drained "new" battery that wouldnt hold a charge well to my current yellowtop.

I was going to put the motor into an S4 shell, but I have decided a house is more important right now.

I have an S4 and I need a motor bad (Coolant seal going) .. I have tried block seal but it doesnt seem to be working that well. IF you dont get rid of it to someone I would be very interested in it,especially if someone could help me swap it into my car.

PM me if that seems possible.

yeah

yellowtops are basically designed to run big stereos without the car running, a redtop is totally fine if you don't plan on doing that

I have a redtop just because my bmw used to have a 3000W+ system in it before I sold the car...

now it's just sitting in my basement.... it'll probably go in the 7 eventually

Not everyone. I rarely ever have my car on if I'm not in it and driving. I use a red top and would never need a yellow top.

I'd put it in the Corolla and charge it. Batteries go to **** when they don't get used properly.

edit: I have a yellow top.

I ment the stereo is sitting in my basement.

Your only accessory is the LS1 in the engine compartment.
