What can I get for my car as is ?

Thinking of selling the car as is , and Im wondering what its worth .Quick list of mods . You all probably know Ive un-installed the Vortech cog SC and sold it .
03 G35 coupe AT5 with less than 18,000 on the car
Full built SGP motor 8.5 to 1 ....CP's , Pauter rods , HKS head gaskets , ARP L19's , and every thing with teflon coating . 4000 miles
Nismo cams and heavy duty valve springs
AAM 2nd generation return fuel sysstem [ no smell ]
850 Deatchworks injectors
Haltech EMS
dual Inovate wide bands , but only one gauge
Stillen headers
Stillen dual exhaust
Crawford HFC's
Crawford plenum
SGP valvebody
Edge Racing Trq converter
Tranny cooler
Slim dual radiator fans
Snow Performance W/M injection kit
Im sure I have forgotten a bunch more stuff

Car is by no means a show car . It has a couple very small dings and the aftermarket front bumper is scrapped on the front lip . The interior is in simular condition..it looks good but isnt perferct .
the only pics of it I could find at the moment .

Looking at Ebay Motors....a 03 stock G35 with low miles may go from $17,000 to $20,000 . What can I get for this thing ????

The front grill is now painted gloss black and looks great

it's a tuff sale, ya may only get 25k or so at most... you should part it out or find someone w/a pretty stock Vortech'd coupe to trade rides w/you and just re-Vortech urs. then sell his stocky. i'm sure someone would do it for their car plus some cash. if you do part out, i'm very interested in ur; SGP valvebody,Edge Racing Trq converter and Tranny cooler.

I just think with out a F/I system in the car , getting top dollar isnt happening . If I spent another $4000 to $7000 and had a turbo kit installed . I would be able to get much more for it . Above $20,000 K with out it.......I dont think so.....but I know crap .

My recommendation is a full part out.

As a DEALER, I wouldn't be able to sell an 03 with miles that low for what you're asking; the car is out of warranty.

It would be cheaper to put another F/I system on the car and then sell it than it would be to try to put it back to stock . And just parting the whole car out is way to much trouble and I would end up getting much less cash for it .

You're not going to recoup the cost of all the performance mods. You're going to take a loss unless you part it out.

Like someone said on here, find someone with a stockish G. Trade cars plus like 5k and sell theirs. You wont ever get more than 23-25k for it as is.

Thanks guys

But a part out / part swap....isnt going to happen . To much dam work and the money for labor on the things I cant do or dont have time to do . Is going to be about as much as the extra cash I would get for it in doing so .
Like I said....it would be cheaper to put a F/I kit on it and then sell it . If I could get a stock price [ $15 to $18 K ] I would be happy with that . If not...Im keeping it . Its paid for

Why would you keep a built car with no boost. Make no sense.
