I'd say the Engine for that price would need more info to justify the price
&
Also R33 gtr BREMBO front calipers 450 is a bit pricey, I'd say the £300 mark with pads would be more realistic.
A few things a little pricey but if someone wants them you never know you can always go down I price but never up.
talk to me about the sr22 spec millage.
Why the hell are you breaking when you almost have everything?
yeah i would to put up what i actually want and people then to pay it but such is the culture you have to increase the price just to be knocked down (because everyone expects it :S)
ermm complete lack of interest, i suppose half the project for me was collecting all the parts that i wanted, then when i had it in place i sort of lost interest (plus i need the cash to fund another more special project :P)
the engine is a bit odd, in that it has no reciepts (but lots of build pictures) and would hold up to any boroscope inspection or leak down test - mileage is on around 5000 miles (1000 break in then 4000 use)

I can't see the pic at work but I'm guessing its a 14a ???
Demand for parts still seems to be fairly strong for 14a's but the S13 spare parts and aftermarket parts market seems to be on the floor at the moment and its hard to give things away. I think this is because the drifters have moved away from 13s as they've become hard to find as whole working cars and there are cheaper RWD alternatives now.
Checking out the Wanted section will show you what I mean as most of the requests are for 14a parts. There also seems to be less money around nowadays for to-of-the-range parts.
I'd be very intrested in the engine. Not too sure about the 3200 and I dont need a few bits as its would go in the srx8 so would swap everything but the tall block as so much was custom.
but as jw says prices seem to be dropping and stuff seems to take ages to sell.
Checked the price list and would have to agree with the others that the prices are all top money. Of the things I recognise and know the price of, I'd say they were all set at 50% above what you are likely to get if you are not in a hurry.
Whiteline ARBs for example are around 325 new from a retailer. 210 would be more realistic for a very good used set.
Another example, there is a v4 Wolf 3D ecu for sale at the moment for 780 quid and its not sold. Pitch yours at £600 and it will probably go.
Basically, at those prices, I reckon you could finish the project quicker than you'll sell enough bits to fund another one. Sorry.
Ah okay, thanks for that, will look over everything and what they are new etc cheers bud
So whats the new special project you have you eye on?
