hazza Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 hello i have a black targa top surpa na, if i deicded to play around with her, would it affect the sale much, i know that this forum is good for selling but would it put some of you off? as she is really clean and completely standard, from a nice set of 18 inch black khan racing alloys on her, shes an import with a huge folder of service history, and got two sets of keys with toass alarms too, i am in two minds either to tidy her up and sell her or maybe modify her slightly, i know the gains aren't big with these na's but she is a lovely car what you guys think, would it get me less or more interest? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazza Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 thats makes good sense, if i do go sell her in the new year what sort of money do they go for? its only done around 106k, ive got so much history, even the certificate of import from japan! mot tilll tax till june too il get a pic up in an hour or so as my iphone 5 is currently updating software from my pc lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Agreed, get it looking clean, polished and loved, modifications aren't to everyone's taste sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 If you are happy with the wheels then I'd leave it as it is (maybe a set of springs if it is sitting like a tractor ). Further to that, I would just do the following: Valet the inside Detail the outside (or get someone to do it for you professionally) Full service Geometry setup Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A geometry setup is the process of configuring the way your car handles by adjusting the camber, caster, and toe of the wheels and suspension, balancing weights at each corner and making sure that your alignment is all in check etc. Read HERE for a bit more info about it.

Stevo Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Might have a standard NA airbox mate - will have a look in the garage at the weekend and drop you a PM if you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I'd be overhauling the brakes unless already done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Had a look around today mate and I'm afraid I don't have the stock airbox that I thought I had kicking around at the back of the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
