I've been doing my share of snooping on the net and I've found some decent stuff. Right now, I'm concerned with the exhaust, then come LCA's and relocation brackets, a panhard bar and some other suspension stuff. I was thinking about trying to find used Spohn parts, but I don't know if it's a good idea to get used suspension parts. I might just get those new. As for the exhaust, I sent an e-mail out to someone who is selling a used Borla adjustable cat back. What would be a good price to pick one of those up used? Would $500 be reasonable or should I try to chew them down to $450 or $400? (EDIT: I just reread his post and he's selling it for $350, shipped. The only problem is that he doesn't have the plates for it)
I also sent out an e-mail to another guy selling exhaust equipment. Here's his response-
<<id sell the whole sysytem for 1000 the header were 720...y pipe 200
something and exhaust was 800 and some...let me know...they have under 4 k
miles...like new...headers ill sell for 400...>>
This is off of a 97 Trans Am, so I can't use his y pipe. Would it be worth it to buy those headers? They're $800+ new. Should I jump on this or wait it out? **My dad's mechanic said he'd pass me through inspection if I install longtubes on my car. Should I get longtubes or should I play it safe and try to find shortys?
Thanks guys
*EDIT* Thought I should also add/ ask- I've found Crane Gold race 1.6 self aligning 3/8 roller rockers for sale for $250 shipped. Worth it? What about buying used gears? There is a set of 4.10's available for $100. I have around $1,500 saved, plus my birthday is coming up. I might as well go mod crazy.
