STEVE-O

Picked up a 2000 C5 vert and missing one headlamp fasterner boot and nut.

From what I can tell it is not sold from him serperate from the assembly.

Anyone know someone with a part out or might be a Kent to point me in the direction of getting one by chance?

This is the bolt http://www.vettenuts.net/index.php?l=product_detail&p=982

I know this isn’t what you asked for and I don’t have many details yet but I have a friend in Lancaster area looking to sell an RX8. Car is red, manual, clean daily driver. It also has a very nice custom stereo that has one several awards for sound quality. If you want more info, I can put you in touch with him.

Thanks but not interested even a little bit in any rx8

Here is the original Add. Most of the pics are gone- check the build thread

HAha yea I have read his thread before but it was listed for sale back in 2013

I passed on a nice LS turbo FD when I bought my Rx7. Tuned, 8.8 Irs, RPM t56...for 16k I don't regret buying mine as it was a smokin deal, but MAN I wish I picked up that FD!

Yea lmk where that is at haha

Sent you a PM if you're interested as I am strongly considering selling mine very soon. PM me back. Performance wise, mine will eat up that RS5.

Hey hey now don’t leave me completely out of this you still haven’t decided to let it go yet haha

Changing from tan interior to black will cost you a legit $3k or more using good condition used parts. That’s why I bring it up. Black on the used market and you have to remove the full interior including the dash to change it. That’s why I brought it up cause it’s way more time intensive and costly than people realize. That means if you’re buying a car with tan interior you better be happy with it. You can sell the tan parts but they’re worth 1/4of black.

 

For the auto to manual swap to do it right you need to change the gauge cluster and the dash wiring harness. Anything less is making a compromise somewhere. So be aware of what’s involved there too. The rear irons on automatics had a different bellhousing pattern so unless you swap a full manual trans motor or rebuild with a manual trans rear iron you’ll be missing a bolt or 2 for the transmission too. That’s another notion people get caught in thinking the swap is easier than it is.

 

Best bet in the long run is to buy what you want up front even if it’s more expensive and harder to find. It’s typically cause it’s worth it. Good luck in your search.

Thanks for the Info, I would be happy with black or tan interior as the I feel they did a good job with the exterior colors the interior to me matches fine.

Montego with tan or red and tan white and tan all look good imo

If I bought a auto down the line it would get a LS power plant though

Well for $50k I could be talked into selling mine......

 

Haha. Good luck on the search. When I last looked Rx7club and Autotrader were the best sources. Be prepared to travel to get the right car. The market on them is strong right now.

 

Also have a firm idea I’d you want black or tan interior and I’m assuming you want a 5-speed. Both can be changed, but both require more time and money than most expect.

I don’t mind the travel as long as it is a reasonable distance to drive back in a day. I found one I am considering so far in NC (my sister lives there) so I could easily fly down and even stay with her overnight if needed.

I have found a couple as well in the 12-15 range in good shape and even 2-3 ls swapped under 20

But yes black or tan interior is a plus and a manual is almost a must but a auto would not be 100% deal breaker as I can always change it down the road

7 gear dual clutch

Same here S4 has 112 less horsepower

Until apr, check the graphs. S4 is very under rated from the factory and weighs a little less than the rs5, both at stage 1 make same power than after that the stage 2 s4 starts walking away from the rs5.

It kind of comes down to 2 or 4 doors. If you are cool with a sedan s4 all day and cheaper

Have a FD you might want to get rid of ? Know someone looking to sell? Will consider rollers to fully running driving ready to daily

Like the title states pretty straight forward , no set budget would all be determined by condition.

Clean title only no salvage/rebuilt !

Feel free to pm me with what you got but also know I don’t want your tater pms of well for $50,000 I could be talked into selling mine crap

Rumor I heard on the Facebook's today. Anyone have any more info?

Not a rumor, doors will be closing I don’t believe there is a set date yet however. He has also moved a little south to be closer to family and I think the plan is to at some point re open a smaller space down in that area

What is the estimate value of property stolen? Ask because a lot of times people jump to wanting to take people to court and many many times the legal fees outweigh the amount of things stolen and a simple arrest is enough

When our house was broken into many years ago they got caught and went to jail for over a year but nothing civil was ever done because 1: they got caught and 2: besides a few small things that got damaged nothing else was worth the value of loosing time at work and legal fees involved

Where can I pick it up on Monday before 4pm?

I work tomorrow from 9-8 am off Tuesday Thursday and Friday this week, located in Pickerington

Pics?

If it’s bought sold shipped and the distributor is all out of state im with you I don’t see a single reason why there is the sales tax

Is this solely from a monetary point of view? If all I wanted was a paycheck sure I get it, but if that was the case there are many other ways to make money. If I was solely money driven I wouldn't be working on cars anyway.

 

As far as opening a shop goes, a lot of things need to come together for that to happen, it may or may not happen. I'm not so dense that I don't realize that I still have to do most aspects of auto repair to be profitable. I was making the point as to why I wouldn't consider most of these hourly mechanic jobs.

Sorry I misunderstood where in your first post you stated how the pay structure was so dumb and you have to wait on others before you can make your paycheck. To me your concern was a money issue
