[white_ashes]

So i went to look at this guys motor he has in his garage.... he has a SR20 block bare on a engine stand and another new block, all of the parts are not in or on the motor..... he has rings, pistons gaskets a no name header and a little t25 turbo, greddy oil filter relocation kit, i think its a no name intake but looks like greddy not sure, he says all it needs is a FMIC setup cause he sold his FMIC already.... so get this he wants $2500 and immediately i asked him if he was flexible on the price and he said yes so i was like ok thats good... i was thinking about offering him $600-$800 cause the first block he had has a dimple in cyl #1 so i would NOT use that block i would use the other one.... here is his ad on craigslist you be the judge and tell me what you think its worth???

Again i was going to offer him $600-$800 MAX $800 would be generous in my opinion since i haft to assemble everything and nothing is really brand name..... i just want a cheap sr20 cause im gonna buy some Tomei stuff for it!!!

[white_ashes]

you sir are no help at all........

im just asking for help whats wrong with that???

[Otto.]

Sorry... I was in a bad mood. :P

If his original offer was $2500 I dont think he will take $800.

the least I think he would take is $2000 but Im no expert.

[white_ashes]

he has a lot of new parts but i know its not worth $2K cause i could get a sr20 in a car for 2k lol

I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole...

Unless you plan on going a COMPLETE rebuild (replace EVERY THING) I would stay far away
