Everything must go! I am willing to let everything left on the shell go for $1,000. I have the pink slip in hand and ready to go. All the buyer has to put on is some front brakes, shocks, and wheels to make the car roll on to a tow truck to take home or to a shop to strip down.

Payment forms accepted: Paypal and Cash (Local pick-up)

This is what the buyer will get:

-91’ 3SGTE w/ original 140K miles.
*Harnesses all intact and ECU is included
*Starter, alternator, all of the typical stuff is included
*Never rebuilt or touched.
*Motor was running fine before being put in storage

-94’ Turbo tranny w/ lsd
*Custom Ceramic Clutch w/ OEM Flywheel
*Ran strong with no gear grinds before being put in storage

-Rear Axles
-Rear Turbo Brakes w/ dross drilled rotors and goodridge stainless steel brake lines
-Shift Linkage
-91’ Turbo Shell (Needs body and paint work and I highly recommend just using this car for it’s parts)

-What the shell includes:

Exterior:

*Front hood
*Front fenders
*Front headlamps
*Doors
*OEM Rear Bumper
*OEM Rear trunk lid

Interior:

*Center console
*Dash
*Glove Box

visuvius · 11-24-2009, 02:45 AM

Does anyone know of any shops in Orange County/Los Angeles that rebuild turbos?

Davis · 11-24-2009, 10:18 AM

Welcome Joey! Pics are a must.

We usually have meets every month here, but it's been a bit slow now a days haha. Hit up mr2oc's SoCal section, today is tuesday so there's going to be an mr2uesday tonight, you should check it out.

o6spdracer · 11-24-2009, 11:50 AM

Hamid, I don't know of any shops in CA. You could always go with ATS's rebuild or new kit or the EMS powered one. No point in rebuilding a CT26 for your hp goals anyways. There should be some pretty good specials going on with the holidays and all.

Welcome SupraJoey! Like Davis said, we do usually have meets everymonth, but its tough to coordinate something during the holidays. There should be one beginning of December (HINT HINT DORMAN!

). Anyways, post some pics of your 2 and promote some envy.

o6spdracer · 11-24-2009, 12:07 PM

Anyone need this?

I would spend the extra $$$ and get that 3sgte that was on craigslist going for like $950. I think its a complete swap with ecu, tranny etc.... You can probably even knock the price down to $800 or less depending on the shape/condition.... Really tho, why buy another 4ag? Its not going to have the power you need if you go to the track.

By the way, I might have a job for you. You said you do some electrical work right? I'm thinking of having the house rewired. We'll talk.

randomxzero · 11-24-2009, 12:39 PM

Wouldnt the 3sgte require some fabricating to mount into the car? if i had more than enough money i would just incase i needed to buy things along the way, but money is limited, or i could save up more get the engine and save up more for the swap

i mean whats another year without the car

idk im in no positiong to do an upgrade in my car, i really need it and really need the money, so confused.

But ya mixx hit me up i'll come over and see and we'll talk

thx

masagsxr · 11-24-2009, 12:55 PM

Someone already did the swap. You just need to find out whats needed to get the engine in there. I know there isn't quite enough room on the firewall and you probably need to hammer it. The hood will also not fit but i'm sure you can easily fabricate one off carbon fiber or fiberglass since you've done body work before.... But yeah, another 4ag? I'd at least go 20v on it

Davis · 11-24-2009, 01:02 PM

I'd just...iono...buy my car.

masagsxr · 11-24-2009, 01:14 PM

Another phase Davis? A few pages back you said and quote "now I love her (Mindy) more than ever"

randomxzero · 11-24-2009, 01:20 PM

I've been recently researching on the 20v swap... i wanna do the swap myself and i know i can do most of the work but not the wiring :/. Idk around what price range would the whole complete swap be :/, i was thinking of talking to kelvin, since he has a red beast

ha ha davis if i had the money i would have a 2nd gen outside my house..

sw20Tmatt · 11-24-2009, 02:08 PM

just wondering if anyone has a spare battery I could buy off them? mine is dead, and wont hold a charge. I would just go and get another one but due to the holidays I dont want to spend the money quite yet so if someone has one hit me up. PM or give me a call otherwise I Prob wont see it.

and MARK, hit me up!

honda_bar · 11-24-2009, 08:01 PM

hows your hand davis?

I will talk to mark about another meet, my december weekends are filling up fast

Davis · 11-24-2009, 08:40 PM

Got my stitches out today! But I still can't move it for another 3 days. Even so, the doc says that when I bend my finger the skin will tear no matter what since it's cut at the joint.

It won't bleed or anything, just tear. Here's a pic

masagsxr · 11-24-2009, 09:05 PM

Damn.. that needed stiches? I'd prolly just end up taping it hehehee...
