I'm thinking about selling my s14 and I would like your opinions on how much would you pay for my S14. I have a fair price in mind but I wanna see what others think, so here are the goodies. I will be putting pictures and a few videos up once i get some more recent ones.

KA24DE-T
--------------
Wiseco Pistons 89.5 mm 9:1 compression
rx7 460 cc injectors that where sent to be cleaned, and tested.
New oem Main/Rod Bearins
Oem gasket kit
Everything else in engine is stock but checked to be withing (Good) specs.

Using a hybrid turbo t3/t4 made from rx7 turbo (basically smaller inlet, bigger outlet for better spool time).
Turbo has a little play but still in good condition (not burning oil).
Using stock rx-7 blow off vavle which works fine for 8-psi.
Not running a MAF (b/c of standalone not needed).
Only running 8-psi right now.

The car is v-mounted so it reaches peak boost pretty quick.

Standalone is Megasquirt I PCB 3.0 (I know right but after a long time i have it running very well. Still if you have the money taking it to a dyno wouldn't hurt)
Running full fuel + spark (stock ecu is still there for lights etc.)
Innovate LC-1 Wideband

Have turbo, oil pressure, coolant temp, and afr guages

Thats pretty much it engine wise
-----------------
Suspension + Drivetrain
-----------------
installed full energy bushing kit

Have eibach springs + KYB-GR-2 socks in the rear
Stock stuff up front (i have the eibach springs for front but haven't got the kyb shocks for front yet. Engine stole all the money :P)
For the diff i have a vsd installed (can't remeber which one it was, either 2-way or reg vsd)
transmission is stock but i have a centrifugal force pressure plate with stock clutch installed. (its grabs perfect, no slip at all. Think it should be fine for 14 psi)

Thats pretty much all i feel like listing. Audio ill figure out if i actually sell the car.
I'll put pictures and a few videos up later on once i get some recent ones, but please tell me what you think so far. If you have any questions let me know also. Thanks looking forward to hearing what you guys think.

not a lot, the engine bay looks like garbage and is made out of super ghetto rigged s***.

the trend then flows into the interior.

part it out.

v-mount is better for throttle response. You really should clean you engine bay and interior, but right now its hard to sell anything so to sell it within a few weeks your probably guna get $3.5-4k realistically.

Wait till i post the video on here, then you will see why theres a hole in my hood. My air intake temps droped about 15-20 degrees on a hot day. Cold day is like 30 degree drop. If you know that 1% horsepower is gain/loss from 10 degree drop/gain in temp that you would want to lower your temps too.

Also guys this is a project car still being worked on. They only reason i'm trying to see what it might sell for is cause i wanna know if i should keep this car and add to it or start from a new car which will prolly be an Rx7 - FC. So far from what i'm seeing with prices 3-4k which I expected, seems like sticking with this car for a while is what i'm gonna do.

I looked into buying a fc at one time. Started looking into rebuilds and how long they last and it changed my mind. If you bought it and swapped 1jz 2jz sr rb ls something like that it would be win! rotarys are just expensive and dont make a lot of torque and a lot of ppl cant work on them.

Badbob your an idiot. :facepalm:

Stick with it and fix it. Before you start on another project you need more practice and know how.

I would pay about $30 for that thing. You seriously f*** used toilet couplers? That's one of the worst KA-T's I've seen. Only to be topped by this pile of garbage.
