Default Whats up everyone, long time, need some suggestions.

Been a long time, practically lived on these boards just reading the wealth of information and just hanging around.

Unfortunately 2 months ago I had to sell my 08 TC(damn I miss her) because of an osteochondrel injury on my right ankle joint. Cartilage is partially seperated from the bone and fluid is built up in there making it harder and harder to get in and out of the car and properly downshift etc. So rather than kill the car I gave it up for adoption and got an 04 Xterra(auto blech).

So i have the stock exhaust, airbox and springs from my TC taking up space in my garage. Need some advice on what to sell them for to make a quick sale but a fair price.

All your input would be greatly appreciated. I tell you though, I miss my car greatly, so much that i often wonder about buying another one but the i chewed the dealer as best I could only havin to roll over almost 2k onto the X and they didn't fair better selling it for 1k more than they bought it off me for.

don't expect to make a living off of your parts.

my suggestion is to throw it up on Craigslist and take it from there. if your price is too high, repost it with a lower price.

I personally would do:
Springs - 30
Intake - 50
Exhaust - 65

I could be wrong though.

Just put them up for sale (in the correct section) and put "make an offer".

Yeah was thinking roughly 30 bucks for the springs, 30-40 bucks for the exhaust and 20 or the airbox. Not looking for a killing but something fair. Exhaust had 5k on it before swapped out, springs had about 9-10k i think and airbox 12k(not that it matters).

Probably be a hard sell but figure if someone can use it rather than me throwing em out. Wish I was ready and able to remove all the parts off my TC before selling it, sure people would have loved the springs and Fujita 08 CAI for cheap.

So far I'm ok, just really waiting on having time available to get my ankle operated on but have a wedding and such to plan for so i can't do it yet. It sucks man, I miss my little TC.

What really sucks is that I see so many now on the road, all clean, shiny and with some interesting mods and body work. A buddy of mine with a Mazda 3speed had a girl from Pompton Lakes or around there in a Nautical Blue(dark blue) TC with a body kit try to race him. He won but he was mentioning all the work done to the TC. Wonder if she's on this board? lol

Sorry to hear about your misfortunes. Hope everything turns out ok.

On a side note, what color was your tC? I might've seen you on the road at some point being that I work in Wayne.
