Been awhile; buying another maxima

I haven't been on here in years. Had 3 Maximas between 16 and 18, 97se pfi turbo, 95se, and 99sel. Moved on from there and been through a few Audi S4s. The time has come for me to find a daily driver (currently widebodying my stage 3 S4) and I figured I'd pick up another 4th gen.

Found a 97se white/black autotrag, for around a grand. Needs 02 sensors and coilpacks. Also needs a knock sensor, which i've done in the past, just need small hands.

What am I looking at for 02 sensors and coilpacks, price-wise? I'm kind of just looking to jump in and drive the thing...

Well, if you wanna make things easier, I can give you my mint condition immaculate 99 Max for your S4 lol. But for real, if you go to the classifieds I've seen some 02 sensors as well as TONS of other stuff for sale for very decent prices.

Have you actually looked for prices yet? They vary depending on where you go, if you buy new or used, etc.

Do some research on it, you'll find your answer. Check the classifieds, eBay, local parts stores, etc.

Exactly. Too many variables to consider.
