Obviously he wants more than 15k, but would you pay this much for this

Why would you buy that after someone else built it/abused it?

I don't believe him anyways. I want proof of this 600hp and 9 second run. He doesn't even list the whole setup. What kind of rods, pistons, sleeves? What compression?

I'm not interested at all. I just saw it and put it up here. Its only about 45min. from me so I could look at it to see if its all true.

Hell no I wouldn't pay that much for an already built car. If I was going to spend 15k or more on a car I would do everything the way I wanted to do it.

There is no way that ---- is worth $15K.A car is not a ------- investment .He'll be lucky to sell that thing for 6 grand.

I'm assuming he used slicks with different rims. I had those same rims and they are heavy mother *******.

uh, Chris Rado doesnt build cars, he has his cars built for him. My boss was a mechanic on his team when he did the 8 sec pass as a UniBody in his Honda Integra. He said that engine was built for rados integra, if it was, that ---- is OLD as hell. He's been using the Celicas for like over a year now.

I gotta raise the BS flag.

600 hp car runs 9's.. doesnt even have a cage, lol

still trying to eyeball that flange to decifer if its a t4 or t3 flange.. tough to tell.

I agree with the BS flag, it probably is really fast, but 600hp?
