how much would these cost me to fix on a v8?

 

Injectors depend on motor (TPI or TBI) starter like $80 for a factory remmaned piece. If you were going to pay a shop to do them thats a different story though.

 

have to be more specific with the whole "fix" thing... anywhere from $10-$9,000 sounds about right for fixed

what is the real problem with the car and what IS this mystery car?

 

$215 for injectors, 58 bucks for starter 20 bucks for gaskets and 12 bucks for the "good" 12pk of beer. assuming your 21, or less if youre in mexico. or europe

 

the mystery car is a 1988 iroc z camaro i found on craigslist

all he said was the starter was bad and something was wrong with the injectors

 

Cant ever go by what the seller says. Injectors are like 200 since its a z its got to have the TPI if its injected. So i would say in total about $300 for parts plus labor if you paid a shop to do it. Although granted thats just what the seller says is wrong with it. Which although could be true may not be true as well. To me i wouldnt concern yourself with prices to fix as you dont even know whats really wrong with it yet. It may end up being way simpler or way worse. Just plan on having at least $500-$1000 set aside to get her back up to road worth state. If you dont have at least $500-$1000 sitting around you could throw at it just pass on it. It may seem like a lot but just watch and see what happens lol. Cars are a money pit. And when you concider things like a good tune up, brakes, tires, things of that nature can easily run over $500 depending on what you need and thats not even fixing the car that's just maintenece stuff.

 

i know but i lost the 91 i was going to buy( car in picture)

here is my story on me getting a car...im 14 and i have 2 years before i can get my license so i want to get a kind of junky car to fix up the way i want in those two years

i plan on reapainting, adding exterior things like a spoiler, and i plan on customising the inside the way i want like power windows, locks, and back hatch

 

Well if this isnt something you plan on needing right away it could certanly make a nice project for you. On the other hand it could be a death sentence buying a car that's not running as the motor may be shot or a bad transmission. If your prepared to accept these risks and the cars cheap enough to make the work worth while then its something that you may want to consider. But be prepared to get a basket case while hoping for the best. How many miles are on it/asking price?

 

98 thousand miles, and the asking price is $450 so its worth it

 

Yea its not a bad price and at just under 100k isnt too bad either. The one thing ide do is check the oils and trans fluid to make sure they look good. Its not much of a test but at least its something i guess. Beyond that your taking your chances but if you have a ok job, 2 years time, and willing to put in some hard work it could shine again.

 

yea, that and i have a job now so i will have that steady flow of money going to it aswell, with nothing but a phone bill thats $770 a month

 

a spoiler are you nuts? you trying out for the airforce or something? leave the funny wings to the rice boys...

make the car look clean and run like new then there wont be any need to distract people with a stupid looking wing

 

nooo, the aero spoiler, the 3 part spoiler

 

i say, its your car, you choice. i got a stock spoiler, everybody thinks i added it, and laugh, hahaha. i dont care. but think about the bad a$$ project youll have. and the girls you make out with in the back while youre waiting on the license. Then you tell them your going to put a supercharger it and paint her red. get 18inch wheels. (girls like that kinda BS talk). considering your bill is already 700 bucks, you must text hella bitches. when i was your age 8 years ago. id talk on the phone for hours, my record was 8 hours. Get a prepaid phone, or get cricket, unlimited texting. and you'll always have this board to back you up through the years of sweet building of the beast. it took me three years to get my lady in white rolling, and its been running like a champ. gets all the girls at college, all the 18-30 year old ladies-oh yeah....you have fun. IF i was 14, id do hella things different. get the car dude, theres always help here. and What 5 grand anyways. thats cheap. youll be able to paint, get her tuned, brakes, whatever the problem is and still get the girls. and its TPI so in high school's auto shop, you can be like oh yeah TPI. people will be like, "whats that", you'll say, " faster car in town, i just beat a RUSTang at the track last weekend".and that hot girl would be hella jocking.

 

i already have unlimited texting lol

and as for the project yea i think its going to be fun, im going to be doing some mods that people here frown on like (spoiler, underglow, and chrome wheels) but i think im going to keep the paint, i love the gun metal grey color

and with it having the v8 in it ill love it more.... back on subject

what injectors should i get?

 

bumb

 

get venoms dude. at summitracing.com just enter your car info and youll get the recommended stuff for your ride. I gotta say the older you get the more you'll frown upon the mods yourself i bet.
