$2500 if your lucky as is. I personally wouldn't pay more then $2000 for it. If you have been driving it with the HG gone, plus only rims at the front then it screams out "IVE BEEN THRASHED"

Yeh thats understandable but you need to look at it from a buyers perspective. You would be better off fixing the head gasket. Putting standard rims on it and then selling it.

i dont belive in doing the head gasket cheap it may only cost 30 for gasket but you need to do intake gasket and exstaught gasket and then you have to sevice the head it has to be done right and i dont have the money to fix it at the moemnt and even if i did fix it i would never make back the money of puting the head gasket my self

Agreed with above - 2000-2500 if you're gonna be honest about the HG issue. Definitely chuck standard rims on the front. 17's on the front with stockies out back screams thrashed.

^^^ I'm with Image

And you're stuck in a bind mate with the HG, if you can fix it yourself then it'll be worthwhile. But, taking it to a mechanic to get it fixed means at *least* $700, which I doubt you could get away with adding to its For Sale value. Std (or at least matching) rims & sell it off for whatever you can get.

Or, keep it, because E-Series are the shit :D
