KazeSupra Posted February 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 If I knew that, I would tell you. I might run a compression test again and see if maybe I did it wrong the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KazeSupra Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Bump, price change. $3200 without the snow tires, $3600 with. Just picked up 2 front wheels hubs, and plan on replacing them once spring break is here. Also, lower ball joints on both sides replaced under recall. Thanks for looking!

KazeSupra Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 The new bumper and headlight are on...as best as they're going to get. I'm not a body person at all, and due to the person who light hit and ran my car, stuff it's fitting 100%, but it's on there. I attempted to take the wheel hubs off and replace them, but the cotter pin holding the axle hub nut is basically fused together, so I couldn't get the cotter pin out. But the parts will go with the car. Car is still for sale, price is $3200, $3600 with the snow tires. Thanks. I'll get pictures in the daylight tomorrow. Chris.

KazeSupra Posted March 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 New price, $3000, which is a good buy with the mods on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KazeSupra Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 New Price, $2800 - $200 over what I purchased it for, minus the $1500 or so I've put into it. I'm redoing the compression test this weekend, and I'm going to put the 17's back on for the summer. Let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KazeSupra Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Alright...new compression test results. 1: 125 2: 145 3: 145 4: 130 Not great, but still better. I did it this time without letting it cool off for more than 5 minutes. I'm headed outside to put the 17's and summer tires on it and I'll take pictures and post later. Thanks.

boosted98gst Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 with that kind of compression the engine is going to need to be overhauled, prolly the reason why this is not selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattsv8 Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 i would agree. id tell you to fix the body. install the turn signals rebuild the motor and ask more for the car. keep all receipts because when you sell a modified car your word on whats done dont mean shit. you have to prove it.

KazeSupra Posted April 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 If I wanted to do all of that, I'd just keep the car and do it 100%. I don't want the car. I want something better on gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KazeSupra Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Alright, I just had $500 in work done on the front end: New wheel bearings New driver's axle Replacement driver's knuckle New cross drilled rotors on the front Just needs an alignment. Rides much smoother. $2700. come and get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
