smokehouse_83 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 I am thinking about pulling the engine and trans out of my 75 and I am wondering what it is all worth. 75 L28 with new 280zx alt/water pump/starter/fuel hoses/new header. In really good shape not a bunch of oil all over everything and runs good. All electronics 3 PCM's/ 2 Mafs/ wiring harness/ everything it needs to run. Custom built tight fiting mandrel bent exhaust with a Greedy Muffler 75 4 speed recently rebuilt with a new clutch Whats it worth as a package?

BluDestiny Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 4 speed is worthless. maybe like $60. The L28 block by itself a few hundred, with accessories and harness like $400 tops. The headers can be sold separate for like $100-250 depending on condition of full system. You will make more parting it all out, but if you wanted to price that all together $500 for a fast sale, $6-700 if you don't mind keeping it for awhile.

smokehouse_83 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Even with a fresh rebuild the trans is worthless? I kinda figured I would sell it all or 1k, so i guess I was close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillar Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) Anybody in the market for a transmission usually takes the opportunity to upgrade to a 5-speed. Therefore, the market is usually flooded with 4-speed transmissions that nobody really wants. Even a rebuilt 4-speed is not going to be as desirable as a used 5-speed in usable condition (especially if it is a later model "close-ratio" 5-speed). However, it is worth what someone will pay for it. So if someone who just needs a transmission to get their car on the road, or is looking to rebuild theirs anyways, yours might be worth a bit more to them, but it may be a while before that person comes along. And even then, they will likely see that there are a ton of other 4-speeds for sale out there for very cheap. I have seen working 4-speeds go for as cheap as $25 out here on the east coast (and Datsun parts are much less common out here than out west). There was even a guy giving one away on Craig's list a few weeks back. As for the motor, what Blu said is pretty much the standard.
