    Default What would this be worth?

    Hey,

    As some of you might have seen, Ant @ Kaizen garage has some 3SGE Beams engine and box packages coming, and Im thinking about getting me some of this action LOL, with a Tarago Diff and some other bits and pieces...

    To do so, Id need to sell the current driveline in my car. yet I really dont know what it would all be worth... so Im looking for a rough idea here before I put it all up for sale.

    Ill be selling...

    Rebuilt 4age smallport engine, balanced rotating assembly etc, but requires new rings. Drives as it is, but has some blow-by. Made a conservative 80kw's in it's current state with base timing and cams @ 0.
    Bigport head, slight porting, heavier valve springs, TRD 0.8mm head gasket
    TODA 288 8.5mm lift cams in/ex with HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS timing belt
    20v silvertop quad throttles and 75mm trumpets on T3 adapter plate with 4AGZE injectors
    TRD extractors with 2.25 inch straight through exhaust
    ADAPTRONIC ECU with full loom and Denzo individual coils
    JDM T50 gearbox with HD clutch and 20V lightened flywheel
    JDM Tailshaft
    T-Series disc rear end,with TRD 2way L.S.D and 4.11 gearset

    Also will be selling with it..

    JDM EFI fuel tank with Walbro fuel pump thats done less than 3 hours work
    SARD Adj. Fuel pressure regulator
    Racespec solid engine mounts
    Brand new AJPS JDM traction brackets
    JDM Radiator
    Big oil cooler kit


    So the Big question... what is all of that worth? $4K? More?

    I wasnt sure where to ask this, so i put it in here... And before everyone starts asking for parts etc. nothing is set in stone. Im just asking ATM. Rebuilding it is still on the cards... but seeing as a beams makes 200BHP standard, Id be hard pressed to get a 4a there with the same drivability, so seems like a bit of a smarter option.

    Cheers...

    Ben

    6 pence


    speak to ant, he might be interested in some of it.

    I didnt really go through a lot of it, but basically, what ever you add up, will have a plus/minus factor of a grand.

    10 items sold 20 bucks cheaper is 200 bucks.

    a well built 4age with a box behind it, all in rwd can go from 1500 to 2200.
    a t series with lsd in good order can go for 1000 - 1300 depending on situations drums disc etc.

    t50 in reasonable shape goes for around 250-350 depending on bell and condition.

    ok...

    the problem with my engine is it was rebuilt less than 10,000 kms ago, but it needs new rings, so i dont know what price to put on it. Along with the cams/quads/ECU etc.... Hence me asking.

    I was hoping for around $4500-$5000 for the whole lot, but I dont know if Im being too ambitious...

    Rough guesstimate was around $6300...

    I'd take $5K for the lot right now. Reckon it'll cost me about that to put a beams in the 86.... The fab work is easy. The wiring.... not so much.

    BTW... Reckon I might have a lead on a couple of tarago diffs for us kona... waiting for a phonecall back.
