    Hey guys, my mate has a white 5spd vn for sale and we both want to know what we could get for it.

    Upsides:
    - Its recently had an engine / trans swap over done professionally by a mechanic
    - The clutch is about 3 months old, and engine is strong has about 250xxx
    - Its got a sport exhaust system on it
    - Interior is S-pac
    - 6x4 fronts and 6x9s in the rear with a pioneer headunit
    - Sports steering wheel


    Downsides:
    - Windscreen has crack in it
    - Bonnet is touchup sprayed
    - Exterior has some stone chips here and there
    - Door interiors are bit broken here and there
    - DEFECTED.

    Thanks.

    $500-$1000.
    none of what you listed adds any real value.
    Plus its defected.
    sell it as wrecking value - thats all its worth.

    well it was defected because of the windscreen, a bald tyre on the front, horn that we disconnected after putting on the sports steering wheel and a powersteering leak that we cant seem to see / there is no evidence of.. so yea

    I saw a VN V6 5sp in similar condition for sale two years ago. $1000 and it wouldn't sell.

    i bought my wagon. in decent condition. was a vn 5spd with factory lsd. for 1200 last year.

    no rego. but i reckon it would have passed.

    i only wanted it for the gearbox and lsd.

    but hey. i sold it twice. once for 300 then another for 200.
