Who hates seeing a 10k car go for 6? Sat, 27 August 2005 09:02 Go to previous message
OK.here it is.We all have a stake in promoting the value of modified cars [ours] as it costs shitloads to do it right and we then want to do it again-but better!
In order to do so we can mortage the house AGAIN or sell the existing modified car or drivetrain in order to get back to the real fun [building]`
So we need to establish a value for these artworks.My humble notion that I hope you guys can run with and improve is to take the common mechanical line ups that are most popular.
1.ae86 with..........
2.ma70 with.........
3.corolla with.......
4. this with........
5.that with........
A value register or list could allow for given power levels [dyno] and perhaps quality of components\reputation of builder, setting a value to these line ups,say-fan to gearbox.Could be a few gearbox options also.
I can imagine interested parties might choose their specialty and run with it as far as keeping tabs on labour and parts costs.I am really not the type of person who could organise this type of thing,perhaps you guys?I know I could do it for my favourite model\project as could we all.
Something that we have in our favour as a community is the value of being known.ie.check a fellow toymodder out,look at their profile.read ALL their posts if you like.You will quickly get a good idea of their helpfulness and basic attitude etc.this is a good evoironment to trade in I think and I am continually getting excellent help and advice from the users of this site.
For anyone that doesnt understand what I am on about-How do I value a 302rwhp standard 1J with this or that but without the other etc.I reckon we can do it and it would make an active forum as we all have a stake in it!Just got NFI how to do it! I just dont like hearing people say "its not worth what hes asking" simply because they do not have a clue what it costs to put a running,tuned package together.Can we list what it costs to de these setups?
Cheers.Pete.
