i need some honest opinions on what i should do with my car. i have already bought a new one.

i have a 92 DA9 in grey that is unregistered. it has been unregistered for a month now.
Problems
- CV joints are ****ed
- rust has been cut out and paint has been sanded and primed but looks like sh*t.
- no real body damage but there is a bit of paint damage from little collisions, weather etc.
- o2 sensor light is permanently on

It has a b16a engine in it. The body has 255***km's while the engine has approx 75000 kms.
I honestly dont think i could sell it to some1 unregistered, and if someone was to come look at it they would be let down big time by the primer, paint damage etc.

What are my best options? Part out or sell the engine? or just try sell it? I seriously can not be bothered with time or money to get the things fixed to register it.
Thanks in advance

its an LS. well im pretty sure it is thats what all the rego papers etc say. Im in Sydney.

and im pretty sure its the oxygen sensor light.. could be something else i will check tomorrow

parting out probably sounds better, cuz ppl are always lookin for engines, if that engines has 75000, then someone will want it.

**bradess** · 18-02-2010 08:39 PM

I bot a B18c type R for 5.8grand thou that comes with gear box. i have anothere fren who bot a B16A2 for 2.5grand which i think doesn't come with gearbox. You can work around that price range.
