So my buddy is buying an '05 Stang and he's selling me a bunch of the parts off his '98. So how much would you guys pay for these parts, all used for around 8000ish miles I'd estimate:

BBK 75mm Throttle Body
MAC Short Shifter
Jet Performance Chip
White Face Gauges

He won't tell me what he wants for them and I wanna get some idea of what I should offer...I was thinking around $325.

i'd say offer 200-250 just to see what he says

^^^^^ I second that. Have you looked to see how much all the parts would be total if you bought them new? If not I would look to see what that would come too then take off a couple hundred and see what he says.

If you can get these for fairly cheap go for it. Be aware that the mac shifter will be an improvement to the rubbery tranny, but it won't be as good as MGW or Pro50.

i wouldnt pay more than 200...you can find most of that stuff pretty cheap in the classified sections of most mustang sites.

Alright, sweet thanks for the input...I looked them up and they retail for something like this

BBK 75mm Throttle Body - 199.98
MAC Short Shifter - 123.02
JET Performance Chip - 239.96
White Face Gauges - 44.99

For a grand total of 607.95........so that would be awesome if I could get it for between 200-250....

will the chip work if it's already been in a car?? and face gauges can be found easy on ebay for 20 bucks. just remember these are used and just like a car, as soon as you drive it off the lot, or use it once, it will signifintly (sp?) decrease in value

karmstrong_2

Good question, guess I never considered that....anyone have any input on that?

If it's the same year it'll probably work... is this actually a chip or just a tuner?

The tune on it won't be accurate any more though, so it's probably not worth getting unless he wants to give it to you for free or really cheap.

karmstrong_2

It's the actual chip, but it's never been tuned before except for whatever it did when he put it on the car (sorry I don't really know how they work, would love to be enlightened though if you don't mind )...and it is for the same year, he had a 98 and so do I
