I'm looking for a highway cruiser, I don't really want to sell it. I just need more room, but with the new exhaust I can't stop driving it around just to hear it rumble
I'm gauging the intrest for my car and wondering its value I'll be out of town this weekend, I'll still be able to answer pm's just not show the car
nice car... minus the minimal negatives on it (dent, unpainted hood n fenders) this is a damn nice rs. nice start to a mild n/a build and very nice job on the other upgrades... good luck on the sale, though i don't think you'll need it...that is if you decide to sell, which you shouldn't.... on a side note though, how do you like the results of the spicy delta regrind on the cams??? big difference?? i've been considering it for awhile, that is when i'm in my n/a build mind set
Thank you I love the cams!! big difference, but I have more upgrades too the intake and exhaust to help get rid of the burnt gasses. the stock cams have a dead spot around 3,500-3,750 rpm and then die out again around 4,700 rpm with the regrinds and my upgrades the engine pulls hard all the way to 4,000 rpm's and then has another boost of life all the way to 6,500 rpm, its almost scary how fast it goes from 30 mph to 75 mph in 3rd gear. Install the cams you'll fall in love with your car again! I thought it was easy to do, just need a couple specific tools, and your set some people say the short ram takes away from low end torque , well with the cams,header, and cat back the engine produces enough power for city street driving hope that answers your question Richard ps i just saw that your from Rochester, Thats where I'm from. Actually I had 2nd street muffler center do the cat back work for me, they do all my families exhaust work, they are the best in Rochester. they know what it takes to get the job done and they don't charge to much for thier work!
very tempting for my wife to be. although she really wants a forester. I'm gonna show her this when she gets home from work.
I know, I just don't have the money to get the paint done thats all she needs to be a head turner, it already has the sounds thanks to you and your Borla header :yumyum:
straight up trade...(joke) I don't have much cash, if I did I would paint this car and ride off into the sunset
I'm going to get some quotes on getting the dent pulled and painted and the figure a price based on that. or get it done.
the car will be sold as is, no paint so the new buyer can paint it how he or she would like to paint it I bought the car for $5500 and put $8000 in to the car in parts and repairs. thats $13500 :emo: take that times 50% = $6750 now as for a realistic price... most RS coupes sell for $7000-$8000 in good shape with small mods it needs $1500 in paint , subtract that from the avg. normal sale price avg. normal sale price is $7500 - $1500(paint) = $6000 pm me offers
I think that you priced your car right due to needing some comestic work. Someone will buy it. Good Luck.
Thank you for the kind words PM me with offers and showing times I'm ok with driving to Hudson, WI with enough notice ps I was told tonight that a car going 20 mph in fourth gear at 1000 rpms with out the engine shuttering is odd...mmmm torque :biggrin:
if it wasn't for the rust spots I'd be all over this. As for the price, I think its a lil high for having 203k and needs body work. I can't consider the other mods since it would be swapped out anyways.
Would you like to set up a test drive? this car should not be swapped, and if it was to be swapped the parts not used by the swapper would be a great addition to any NA 2.5L car
Car is sold pending pick up on Friday afternoon Thanks for the positive response I will post if the sale does not go through Richard you might see alot of parts forsale in the future, help out the buyer
I don't have the cash sorry shibbs, I feel bad enough for even letting the car go I spent 4 years adding parts in such away to only make it a even more well rounded car than how it was stock. I would like to think that if STi had tuned a NA 2.5L car for the united states it might feel like this one. ps. trying to find a car to replace it is going to be very hard!
A lot of parts? ... as in a nicely built 2.5 engine screaming to be swapped into an OBS? :biggrin: Anyway, congrats on the pending sale.
true, and i can throw my skis in the back , I will miss the heated seats!! but probably not as much as ladies, gigade ***Family Guy - Quagmeyer****
the fisrt buyer fall of the face of the earth after getting his loan check from the credit union.... so I showed the car on tue. and he will be getting back to me today or by sunday.(he wants the car buy got busy with work and need to work all week) so as of right now I have no money in hand. the car is still forsale, more extras found, 98' rs trans blown first gear 00' RS trans no center diff 2 RS short blocks (both in need of rebuild) 2 sets of heads, one set of stock cams(one set of heads has been steam cleaned and could use a rebuild) stock header and everything else on the first page I'll be in Rochester with the car until sunday afternoon (pm for my number) Richard
nevermind found it, not to bad of a price a have seen alot less go for more. but still interested, my legacy is on its last limb of life and i wont buy another car but a subaru!
I have a new buyer and he said he'll be picking up the car this week , I'll post when he does the money switch, 93legacy thanks for the kind words
