I Paid $500 Dollars For Mine. The Fifth Gear Was Burned Out And It Had A 158,000 Miles On It.

[XxDark_AccordxX]

i paid $1000 2 years ago. That was with a messed up electrical harness (still is and yes...no radio) no AC, plus ALOT of oil leaks. It just had a new head put in before i bought it.

Sounds like mine, bullard. $300, no 5th, dead w/p, dead ECT sensor, maladjusted clutch, and now 4th is gone. Oh yes, oil leaks, of course. No idea where they're from.

MAN MY CLUTCH WAS MALADJUSTED TOO. IT WAS DISENGAGING WAY TOO HIGH. PLUS I HAVE A OIL LEAK THAT IS LEAKING ON MY TIMING BELT SO I'M GOING TO HAVE TO GET THAT REPLACED REAL SOON. HAVE YOU PRICED GETTING THAT FOURTH GEAR FIXED YET?

Paid 200 bucks. 0 compression on 2 cyl. and 60 on the other 2. No radiator or fan. I installed a new engine and radiator and all that other fun stuff, new rear brakes and that was about it.

no i am not a mechanic, i just know my ways around the cars. plus this is my second 3G so i know a hole lot about it. i never trust any mechanic. i do all the work myself. it may take a little longer, but i will know that if something breaks it is my fault and i know how to fix it.

[Volitech]

I paid 1500 over 3 years ago from a used car place he wanted three grand but someone had key'd it the night before!

[Volitech]

Oh yah! It also had the o.z. racing rims on it when I got it! I think that's what caught my eye!

[Silver86LX]

I paid $800 for mine almost 2 month ago for my '89 LX. Needed a new windshield to pass safety, and some minor work to pass emissions.

bullard, getting a new trans would be cheaper then getting 4th + 5th gear replaced. I forgot to mention that's it's more then just those two gears; the entire trans itself is on the way out, my synchos are dying. The people who owned it before me put manual trans gear oil in it instead of plain 10w-30 motor oil, so it's fragged.

A replacement trans from a junkyard is ~$300. A rebuilt from most places I've seen is ~$500-600. I've heard single gear sets ALONE are almost $500 from the dealer

BTW bullared, there seems to be something wrong with your computer... all your text is coming out in all-caps =D

[guaynabo89]

I paid 5000 for it back in 92 with like 80,000 on the odo. Second owner too.

[89coupe1777]

I paid 200 for my coupe with sunroof and different rims but it didn't have an alternator but other than that no problems 198k when I got it.

[ivanfbi]

paid $1000 in 2003 september, was in really good condition, with working everything with a good Kenwood casset player and really good body and susp. problems were really minor, like broken switch on power window, which cost me $3 and it had 126K on original engine. Right now I have spend $2400 on it(including price of car) and I have got Black Widow body kit, 17", 2 12 Kenwood subs(1000W each) 1000w Kenwood amp, all Kenwood speakers, kenwood cd(50x4), tint, paint job, lowering springs(still need shocks) and blah blah blah...well soon to be for sale. Ohh, yeah, can someone come to my house and post all the pictures of my car on the forum? cuz I don't have enough time to do that.

[T-Funk]

500 canadian 1 year ago, nothing wrong with it considering it had 330,000 km on it

[NotFast]

$350 3 years ago, only needed a radiator

[my86dx4dr]

1600 with 320k since then have put 2k into it

[MilTownSHO]

$50 for my stickshift 89 DX Coupe. Red with black interior. Had a sunroof, matching painted body panels, lots of other "rare" options as I later found out from this website. Had 173k (I think) when I got it, sold it at 174k when the alternator went out
