The 180 SX i had is probably closest to your car, and i sold it for $6800, no title, bullshit Rotas, AC, stock motor with downpipe and exhaust, Cusco Coilovers. My silvia Ks i sold for $7500, it had ugly ass Konig wheels, half a cage, wasnt in near the condition your car looks to be (paint had scratches, etc).

So, i think your car is in the $7000-8000 range. $8000 being the high end, $7000 being the low end. anywhere in between i would sell it.

400hp doesnt matter, none of my cars made over 220whp, 400hp in an SR is almost a liability more than a selling factor. 400whp means its about to blow the fuck up.

If you dont have a dyno sheet, i wouldnt quote HP numbers because you cant really prove what it makes regardless of what you think. You should say "i think it has XXXhp based on what ive beaten, but i dont really know. " or just ballpark it "its prob around 350hp ".

If you claim a number but cant really prove it, people will always be suspect. Or just go pay for 3 dyno pulls somewhere for $50 and see what it makes.
I've dynoed the car and ran the 1/4 in the car, i know what it makes and runs. The 400 i claim is rounded down. Saying this... or a precise number is only going to cause more bullshit from these people who are just trolling. I dont have proof, but it's not a redlight math guesstimate.

you're a reasonable guy and your estimation of value is 7-8k based on previous experience of owning s13s and being on forums. Your doubt it is a factor in that appraisal the same way mine would be when i shop a car. Every mustang i've ever looked at my entire life, i was told "woohoo doggy, it'll scat" or "it sure is fast" ect ect.... 9/10 of them are near stock and slow as shit. So i understand skepticism.

but.... theoretical question, if you came to look at my car... and it was every bit as good as it looks in pictures and was just as fast as i say it is... would you really think me asking $8500 was that far fetched? People like Austin are basically basing their entire opinion of my asking price on me being a liar. Assuming im not....... do you think my price is so far off the beaten path that it merits all these kids riding my jock about it?
