kiwi808 Posted November 26 Share Posted November 26 While it can be fun to change cars, the current market isn’t great for changing at the moment. There seems to be a lot of cars for sale at the inflated prices people were paying when interest rates were 2%. If you sold it, what would you get for the same monies? I was thinking of selling the Ute but these are the questions I have been facing so have decide to keep it for now and maybe tweak a few things. So I vote to keep it. It’s a cool car and definitely a bit different to a batty/808/323 etc. By doing the manual swap and getting it certified will probably make it easier to sell in the future too. It will be like a new car! Besides they are super lush to cruise around in (by design) and has the extra doors for extra… people. Keep it, manual swap it. Cert it and enjoy it. Then maybe in a couple more years think about changing it up. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
440bbm Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 maybe a churbo setup in there will bring some new found fun with it instead of selling.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrx7 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Yeh for sure. I don't think I'll sell it, it would be more a swap for something else kinda deal ... but yeh, basically come back to the same conclusion as kiwi808 said above. Just the mental gymnastics I go through routinely about what I'd like to have vs what I've got, and keeping my expectations realistic. Would love a mildly modded 13b turbo, keeping somewhat quiet and subtle, but with a bit of go when wanted, and who knows, perhaps one day that'll happen, but that'd be years away if it does. As with most things, budget related would be the big hurdle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi808 Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Just a mildly ported motor would be cool too. Back in the day the tall port/extended port (now called a street port?) would make a big difference but wasn’t tooooo noisy and obnoxious. You can then strap a churbro to that porting so it’s also future proofing! Pity the 12a turbo motors from the cosmos are so spendy as that would have been cool too… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
