True I was looking at this link http://compare.ebay.com.au/like/230842706414?ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes but did not consider freight
Here's another way to look at it Get the following from Coz for your upcoming plenum pull Plenum Gasket EGR Gasket Balance Tube O-Ring Set Throttle Body Gasket Complete PCV Set IACV Gasket Air Regulator Hose Kit Heater Hose Kit Spark Plugs Set Fuel Filter Valve Cover Gaskets Fuel injector o ring and insulation set Injector Connector Set Coilpack Connector Set Total $550ish delivered Throw in the fuel line you need $30ish and heater hose $10ish from Repco. About 5 metres of 6mm silicone, and 6 metres of 4mm silicone, about $50 delivered from ebay. $30 for paint to do your plenum, fuel rail, rocker covers, balance tube, and IACV feed. Another $50 for sundries (degreaser, wax and grease remover, block off caps for your deletes, coolant for when it goes back together, barb fittings if you want to extend your existing vacc lines) we're up to $940. Budget another $300 for a mobile injector guy to come out and service your injectors on site. We end up a little over budget ($1020) but I guarantee that you'll notice a difference in the way the car runs. If you still have some $$ left over and want to go faster add Turbosmart Boost Tee $89.00 delivered http://compare.ebay.com.au/like/281053268545?ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes Autometer Boost Gauge $89.00 delivered http://compare.ebay.com.au/like/321094834990?ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemType Total cost $1198 but should feel like a different car with the boost wound up to 14psi. If you want to finish the "look" of the car a little more add another $70ish to get some silicone intake pipes delivered to you. Before and after of a car I did last week. Barring a coilpack that he needs to replace (connector on the coilpack side is damaged) it runs like a new car. If your car is even half as neglected it'll be the best money you ever spend on it.
He'll want to put a big single and nitrous on it :br: I'm going to go left field and say spend half the money on some good tools if you haven't got them already. Got socket set, spanners, screwdrivers, long needle nose pliers, files, scrapers etc. Rest of the money on maintenance and $50 for a boost tee.
In your case, id spend it on getting the smashed rear quarter panel fixed. that would be a priority for me.
i have a complete fmic for 250 if you want and a greddy e01 ebc, a bit dodgy but working fine, for 150 (and a full custom 3" exhaust for 500, but you already said no ) ciao!
