its worth a lot to me as i have about $12,000 into it including the origianl price of the car :( i took a $5000 loss when i wrote off my integra so im used to losing money...


but more realistically, considering the cost of the engine, ecu, clutch and boost controller, i would think that 5-6000 wouldnt be out of the question....

I dont see why you wouldnt get close to 6 with that thing.
Very tastefully done.
And she looks hella clean inside and out, and especially under the hood.

the diff is from a 280zx, it would probably be easier to just find an lsd. the homemade coilovers is a genius idea for a car with no aftermarket support though...

thanks i appreciate it. i clean under the hood somewhat regulary and have been removing all non-essential wires. i also plan on taking out the carpet soon to give it a really good cleaning. other than that it just needs some matching rims and the hatch to be painted.

the diff is soo hard to figure out a lsd for, i think a guy in australia makes one but it costs like 1500 i think and that is if he still does it, but yeah doing up the coilovers like that is a awesome idea. and you can get springs for this car cant remember the company and then i think it is 300zx for the front or rear struts and 280 for the other... and then it would be awesome
