05MNLGT Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 like everyone knows with these project cars. we are passionate about building them, it's very personal. we know that we'll get $0.50 (if that) back for every dollar that goes into it. but it's the fun of sourcing and building rare cars. arnold's family is growing and combo with a long LA commute (gas killer), he moved on to a model 3. his LGT is a perfect example of TBSTI. the car is worth easily $25k. personally who ever buys it should treat it like a collector car. fyi, the ban was not self-imposed.

wpmarky Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 If it doesn't meet reserve pricing, I will be selling my current wagons to get this one if we can agree on a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gex Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 She ain’t making the reserve. Way too many unanswered questions about the EJ20Y in the comments. Hope it goes to a good home soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpmarky Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 semi relieved that it didn't sell. Now I'm anxious of trying to part out & sell my old cars to get this one xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05MNLGT Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) She ain’t making the reserve. Way too many unanswered questions about the EJ20Y in the comments. Hope it goes to a good home soon. agreed. i will say this. you could part out the car and make more than 16K. the front end conversion alone is worth $4-5K. rear end conversion is $2-3K (bumper, beam, tails, garnish, spoiler). this is based on my build. but remember, front end of rear accident, you are screwed. the body parts aren't in the US. i have insurance up the wang on mine, the premium is high. if i ever put mine on the market, i'd be asking $20K firm. these GT2.5 wagons are a beautiful design (timeless) and are getting harder and harder to find in good shape, let alone in a manual. this is only my opinion, which is just that. to each their own.

deucescorner Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Long shot but is that the JDM ECU wired up? If so, do you know the part number?  Final product. It's all wired up correctly.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
