Like the title says, what do you do when you replace your stock parts? Keep them? Sell them? Throw them out even?

sell... there is always someone out there that needs what you're ridding of and it helps fund your own projects

even if it seems pointless... list it... you never know

Most things I'd sell.

I'm only keeping my smog related items just incase I need to go back to stock.

I keep them in case I need them again. that way I have them and dont need to spend $$ right away or if something breaks and I cant afford to fix it right away i've already got the part... besides, when you own 4 s13's like I do you never know when you'd need em lol

I sell just about everything. I do keep some stuff that could be used for temporary fixes or spare parts.

I keep my sr20 parts for spares. Spare alternator, starter, coils,etc. As stated above sr parts are a pretty penny.

My ka24e stuff is long gone lol. I think I might have a sohc maf around somewhere. When the car gets out the shop, I will sell more stuff off that people need.

Keep them. Sell them. Throw them out. - Pretty much in that order if they are of no more value to me.

Left-overs make for good soup though.

+1. I do basically the same. I threw away my stock suspension components so I'd have no excuse to go BACK to stock height. LOL. So far so good.
