Default what kirby says although the "installed" price for both is more like $12-$13k

so I'm waiting to see what others do (couple in the works) or wait to see if AoA puts a V6 in THIS body style. If they do that then I'll switch over to the coupe

Default I reckon $2-$3k for install so add that to the kit(s) and.......

Strat kit = $9k something
Install $2-$3k
APPROX $11-$12k (not counting exhausts etc)

MTM $9800
Install $2-$3k
APPROX $12-$13k (again not counting exhausts etc)

So figure around $14-$15k for SIII for stock 225. This is why I'll wait for the others who are aiming in the 50% of that price range. Of course by then we might get conformation on a V6 engine for THIS bodystyle - then I'm sorted

At the moment for the money I'd say it would be easier to get 180Q / FWD and go APR SIII with the difference you save on price (used 180 etc) you'd be into a well sorted (wheels etc) TT with around 300-320hp (crank of course)

Default same here... Im looking forward to what the VR6 is going to cost and what other cars will be coming

out.. If the VR6 is no more then a 225.. then I might have to do a trade in and send the car out to HPA.. for about 13grand you get nearly 400hp

Default that would be WAY too much...

$500-800 is more like it...shouldn't be more than a 8-10 hour job @ $50-70/hour
