I have an 89 coupe w/hud 200,000 on chassis about 50,000 on CA18DET. I have a fully installed and functioning SDS Standalone system. Blitz boost controller currently set at 12-13 running a very strong stock t25 through stock IC. I also have a turbo timer although I cant remember the brand its some JDM unit. I have tien S springs with tokico blue struts car rides nice yet handels very well also with a rear tower brace. I replaced the worn out bushings in the front with the ones from my clip as they looked brand new. The motor and transmission is mostly stock I do have upgraded 550 injectors though. I replaced the basics when I swapped it out. The transmission has a just broken in spec stage 2 clutch. All this car needs to a real killer is an IC and Turbo upgrade and you will see 12sec or better 1/4s. Right now she feels very fast compared to my WRX. I am thinking its worth about 4500-5500 but would like some feedback.

Thanks

I think you're dead on. That's exactly what I'd pay for what you have. Why are you ditching it?

I am selling cause I am trying to start my consulting firm and cant afford this project plus I dont think driving clients in it is putting out a good impression. I forgot to mention that I have no exhaust as I was waiting to buy one until after I had a new turbo and mani. It also could use a dyno tune as it has only been tuned with a LM-1 which I also forgot to mention that is included. It runs great and fast take a little till its warmed up and runs a little rich to be safe since I have not dyno tuned. I have had people tell my I am probally running about 230hp at wheels or a little more. I am willing to sell and do what it takes to make the sale. I do not have everything to make it bone stock any more.
