damn bro.. you jumped up the mod list a bit in the last few days.. LOL. SP built tranny..

not sure what you'd get out of it though $15k doesnt sound bad... i know of a few GTE swapped 1st gens that have gone for around $13k.

good luck!

I am selling it, but I am building it first I am going to run it.

I planned on selling it long ago and then buy a supra. I ended up picking up a supra a few weeks ago, but I still am going to finish the GS300. My goal is to have either the fastest or second fastests first gen GS300 around. Now that BMSC crashed thier GS300, this car will probably be the fastest, for now anyway.

I'm afraid that you may have put too much in and won't get enough out. It is going to take a special buyer to appreciate the car. The fortunate thing is that it only takes one. That said, I have no idea how to place value on a machine like that.

Ain't the car a NA-T ? Do you really count BMPC out that's a shop and probably have it put back together. Also the guy on here w/the chromed out engine he packing something also. So have you ran it before and what did she do?

Not NA-T anymore, pure built 2JZGTE

I really don't think I will have a problem getting close to 25K. I mean, what is the going price for a 1000RWHP Supra? 40K? 50K? So 25K for a setup that if you wanted, could just be transfered over to a supra in probably a day, that ain't bad. With a TH400, it could probably get into the 9's, but......this is all BENCH RACING!!!! I don't even have the engine together yet. I have all the parts minus a few small pieces here and there, and time.

I did run close to 380rwhp on the NA-T setup though at 12psi. Now I will be running 35psi with 75 shot of nitrous.

Even if there are a couple 1st gen's out there, I would like to build something that is in the top.

No, blew an entank off the radiator and drive about 20 miles before I noticed. Blew a HG, and decided to rebuild the 230,000 motor. Ended up going all out 2JZGTE instead.
