Don't buy it you are a Honda guy. If it's an 84 then it came with the 12A, unless it has been swapped. In 85 the GSL-SE had the 13B. The price is a little steep for the car in that add. If you have your mind set on this car you do a 13B six port NA swap from an 86+, throw a turbo on the 12A, swap in a 13B turbo from an 87+ or you could build the 12A. Have fun!

If he were to go 1500 would that be a reasonable price

I personally would not pay $1500 for that car. I just seen a 1st gen with a rebuilt & ported 13BT turbo swap, wheels, standalone ecu & more go for $1500. Just as a reference.

Ok ya actually this you may think im lying but a pos Honda will go for like 2-3g's and one with either a swap or a turbo will go for 3-6g's imports are insanely over priced here
