JackyBoi Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hi mate my best guess, although entirely depending on the condition of the car throughout, whether or not it's single turbo, extra mods etc, would be around 12-14k minus the cost of entirely fixing both of those issues. Are you not sure if it's the stem seals or piston rings that is wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Morning all what sort of price tag would u put on a supra Manual 6 speed with either stem seals Or piston rings needing to be replace We need more info than that to be able to provide a price. What's the year, mileage, spec, condition of body work, service history et cetera. Also pictures would help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cered Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Better off spending the £1k or so to repair and sell. I wouldn't buy a car that needed major work because it'd appear as though you're selling it because you feel it's not worth repairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurteen0 Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 It's got 98k on clock standard power other than exhaust and filter brand new 19" wheels few gauges inside had compression test done and was a little low on #6 I get a little puff of blue smoke on cold start up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I'd probably start at around £9k, but expect £7k for it *if* it's in otherwise good and mostly stock condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 A sensible buyer would have to assume it needs a rebore and new pistons and rings. To not also do the guides and stem seals at the same time would be sheer madness. So let's say £3.5K to do that lot (conservative price, could be more). Knock 3.5K plus a bit more for the hassle of getting it done, off what it is worth in fine condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 You can guarantee there will be more work needed once it gets opened up. As a prospective buyer I would be knocking a couple of grand off for hassle factor and then the worst case for the work. Surely it's better to get the work done and then sell the car for it's full market value. H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
