So im going to be driving a aps tt 350z for next season instead of my s14.5. Any thoughts on what i could get for my car. It will have a new sr20 since my other new motor blew up last week. s15 turbo, fuel cell, rotora brakes, all that shit will be included.

Let me know what you guys think i should do. part it out, or sell it as a whole.

Probably your best bet would be to part it out. Good luck with the Z33. :)

If you want to sell it as a "Formula D" car, make sure the tubular extensions are accepted by SCCA Pro Racing; the rules for '05 will be very strict to prohibit any modifications to the car that results in the unibody being taken out.

So that extension support for the radiator support might make the car illegal for F-D.
Just FYI.

Thanks alex. We have done considerable reasurch into the tube location and modification, the car is legal with the chassis modifications because we did not replace any of the frame rails or supports, remove any of the frame, and retained the stock shock towers, and upper mounts.

boy, if you part this thing out, I can see some parts I want right away. Good luck selling it as a whole though.
My "expert" pricing opinion (what I would like to see it go for) would be somewhere around $15k. The body work is excellent, looks pretty perfect. But seeing as how it's not a totally streetable car, it's all gutted and whatnot, loud, harsh, not your average Lincoln Towncar, I would bring the price down to about $15,000. Hope I'm helping.

P.S. Your car is beautiful. If you could be so kind, could you post some pictures of all your chassis gusseting, welding, bracing, etc. I'm very interested on where to start with my S13 as far as a more solid body.

15k seems fair for the car, porblem is that it seems like a track only car so people might not be willing to pony up

Yes, this car would require a very devoted and specialized buyer.

you would definately get more parting it out. BTW is that cage a s14 autopower? or a s13 autopower, mine looks different.

ebay it with a reserve price of 15k, but then there is the trouble of finding legit bidders =\

man if you wanted a lot of money for it part it out, i would hate to see it parted out though if you were to sell it as a whole i'd say 16,000 at least but findin a buyer is gunna be tough.
