Feeler: Thinking about selling my legacy
Posted: Thu May 10, 2007 6:08 am
Just curious to see if there is any interest in my legacy.
It is a 92 AWD NA sedan.
Here is a list of all the mods i can think of right now:
Engine:
Has a 2003 NA EJ25 swap running off the original ECU (engine only has 20K miles on it)
ACT Streetlite Flywheel
Nearly new clutch
Freshly cleaned injectors
OBX EL Headers (not emissions legal (no cats))
Flomaster Muffler (sounds horrible but it just needs someone to toss it and build a header back exhaust for it.
K&N cone filter on stock intake tube
Scotty's Cocktail in the transmission
Suspension:
Legacy Turbo front brakes
WRX wheels and a set of generic 16x7 +48 offset wheels (heavy but get the job done)
KYB AGX struts
Ground Control Coilover Kit (325# Front / 275# Rear)
Whiteline Swaybars (22mm Front / 22mm Rear modified to about 25-26)
Camber Bolts
Custom short shifter
80/100W Headlight bulbs with relays
Hella ff75 driving lights with 100W bulbs with relay
The body has 290000 miles on it.
This car does very good in Auto-x right now (Nick (555BCTURBO) can vouch for this)
The engine runs pretty much flawlessly. The timing curve on the 2.2 ECU is fairly aggressive so it does ping occasionally under heavy load (not an issue if you downshift and rev it a little higher). The pinging only really becomes a problem if you have 5 people in the car and a trunk full of stuff and are trying to climb a hill in 4th gear (just downshift to third and the problem goes away). A piggyback ECU could easily retard the timing a little bit and fix the problem.
Everything on the car works (The AC even still blows cold)
The interior is in reasonable shape and the body only has a few dings in it.
If someone were to replace the springs with something softer it would make a great daily driver.
I really have no idea what this car is worth. Obviously I can't get back all the money I have put into it. What do you guys think it is worth? I'm hoping it's worth somewhere around 2500-3000 but that could be way to high. I am sure I could get that much if I parted it but I don't really want to do that.
What do you think?
I am looking to replace it with a 2nd gen NA Mazda RX-7 if anyone has one they want to trade/sell.
Unfortunately I already have points going this year so I can't really get rid of it until the end of the auto-x season (gotta find out if I can run an E-Stock car in FSP).
