Default Good Price For D1SC Head Unit???

I have a chance to buy a D1SC head unit that has less then 1K miles on it (F1 up grade). What would be a good price to pay for it? Thanks

$1700-2000 is what I've seen them go for. Anything less IMO is probably a good deal.

1k is a low mileage headunit so I think anything sub $2k is a good deal. Piecing together a kit is time consuming and frustrating though. Look into this kit: http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=772

Then all you need is the bracket/tensioner setup and the crank pulley.

Big spread no? What are the down sides of buying a used one?

With that low of a mileage, I wouldn't expect anything to be wrong with it. Unless those 1000 miles were all track use . But worn bearing that would give play in the shaft, worn out seals, or damage to the impeller are things to look out for.

I think I sold mine for around $1600-$1700. I wouldn't worry a used one as these things are prety reliable. As long as the previous owner changed the oil like he was supposed to, it should be ok.

My buddy bought his D1SC for $1400. It had about 10k miles on it.
