Kelly Blue Book Says a 94' GS-R in Fair Condition with 140k on it is worth: $2,975.

Fair = that the vehicle probably has some mechanical or cosmetic defects, but is still in safe running condition. The paint, body and/or interior need work to be performed by a professional in order to be sold. The tires need to be replaced. There may be some repairable rust damage. The value of cars in this category may vary widely. A clean title history is assumed. Even after significant reconditioning this vehicle may not qualify for the Blue Book Suggested Retail value.

I lived in Austin for a few years and I know it gets got as hell in the summer...if the engine is in good shape (ie. runs smoothly, doesn't blow blue smoke) I would still be skeptical...what are you plans for the car...point A to Point B or are you gonna try to fix it up?

You could possibly pick up a used GS-R tranny for somewhere in the $500 range...not sure on that...

 

yeah, i got an update.. it has a crapped up hood, crapped up fenders, needs lights and a front bumper.. so basically it's great for JDM.. also needs tranny.. radio, back seats, and shift knob.. currently riding on steelies and it's yellow.. i think after all the money i chunk into it to fix it and paint it.. im better off finding another car.. even if i do all the labor... ive seen GSR's with under 100k go for 5k or so...

 

tell him you'll give him 1000 as is because of all the work you will have to put in it.

 

No. Way too low. The engine itself is worth over $1k to a lot of people, he won't get the whole thing for only $1K.
