VR4 Parts Prices

[marmel31]

This is more for the MZ members but any comments are appreciated.

I have a 96 Black Legnum VR4 which I am going to part out. What sought of prices should I be asking for the major items, ie engine (86Km), gearbox, Tein suspension, 3" Fujibitso stainless exhaust etc. All in very good order.

I also have the factory BBS wheels, interior all in excellent nick.

I will probably put most of the stuff on trademe unless anyone here wants something.

Thanks.

How far does the exhaust go ? Where does it start from and does it go to the end pipe or just to muffler ?

[bradc]

You See or Kenneth might be after the Tein's, why are you breaking it up? It is probably worth asking around here, you might be surprised to see just how much you can sell here.

You See also might be after the rear door handles.

[You See]

Yep Teins and the rear door handles please....PM me what you want for them!

[Gly]

if you have endcaps like these



ill take them... how doz $80 sound???

[OSiRiS]

If UC doesn't take the TEINs or the rear door handles I'll take them

[You See]

No they're mine...mine...MINEEEEE!!!

[marmel31]

Jesus you guys are vultures!!!!!!!

The muffler is the whole shebang as far as I can tell, it's pretty hard to get under the car as it's sits pretty low with the setting on the TEIN's at the moment. I have had a look and it certainly seems to be stainless all the way through, maybe 2.5" towards the front disappearing into the engine bay and 3" at the back. The rear muffler has Fujibitso stamped on it. The front of the exhaust seems to have springs on it near the engine?

I haven't really thought about price for anything yet and I'm not really sure what everything is worth. If I do sell the parts to members I won't be trying to rip anyone off and I would expect the same in return.

I have someone coming to look at the whole car tonight at 8:30pm so I will see how that goes, in the meantime feel free to PM with any offers on stuff you might want. Here are a few pics.

to be fair Osiris the door handles are black, so they won't suit your car. I'm all keen to see a mudfight for the teins though

Gly, I don't think those endcaps will line up that well on your car with your large side skirts, if I had to recommend any I would suggest you go with the facelift ones for the cars with wheel arches. Have a look in my Gallery at mine, I think they will line up quite well.

Forgot to add that the car came with the original factory muffler in the boot which is complete so that further leads me to think that the stainless muffler is also complete.

i dont have large sideskirts... i got stock vr4 ones

[You See]

And I have a sneaky suspicion that OSiRiS is getting a paint job....would someone like to confirm or deny?

[marmel31]

How much do you think I could sell the engine for and should I include the ecu/gearbox or sell seperately?

[You See]

Not sure about the price, but best to sell it with the complete loom....ECU could be optional and with the Gearbox. Brad has bought a complete engine so he's probably the best person to answer your question....brad?

[bradc]

a few grand I guess, you could call kempy's and ask them how much an engine would cost to buy from them. Is it a manual or auto?

[bradc]

my engine was seized so I got it for $500, all the loom was destroyed, etc. I think you may as well sell the ecu with the engine, I guess it just depends on if you find a person who wants just an engine.

[Gly]

so do you have the endcaps??

[marmel31]

Not like those no sorry.

[OSiRiS]

Who knows what's next for [VR FOE] :0

[marmel31]

OK here is an update.

The guy that turned up to look at the whole car was a tyre kicking young fella so I am seriously thinking that parting it out is the way to go.

I have had an offer for the exhaust which I think is fair from a member so thats probably gone pending payment etc.

Anyone interested in anything else PM me an offer, I guess we could use trademe as a guide for similar sales and then take a bit off for mates rates

I will try and confirm the exact model of the TEIN's, I did do a post not long after I got the car with the model number last year but not sure if it's still floating around after the recent software changes. As far as shipping goes I can possibly get most items to Nelson in a few weeks and ship from there or drop off on the way to keep costs down or can send sooner if need be.

Cheers
