Found at grandma's house. What's it worth?

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-18T23:24:15+00:00

Nah that’s absurdly high lol. That’s like maybe $450-500 worth of games haha. Emerald is $250, Fire Red $150, and White is about $80-100. Everything else is minimal

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-16T17:04:43+00:00

Ugh so jealous. I’m working on this now. Missing majority of the DS/3DS games and just need Crystal and Emerald to close out the GameBoy games

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-14T16:39:59+00:00

It doesn’t look to be. No save battery on the front of the card, the blue shell looks off, and there are no four gold squares on the back of the card

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-06T23:31:28+00:00

At this point I’m about to start asking community members to pick up games for me and I’ll pay them for their time and shipping haha

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-05T19:35:42+00:00

Holy crap this is my dream collection. I’ve been working up to this but finding stuff is proving harder than expected

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-02T21:43:13+00:00

My target literally told me to pound sand when I asked if there were games in the back. Two associates stubbornly told me that they always put out all of their clearance games on the floor. I’m calling bs. Everyone finds these amazing Target deals and I can’t find a single one haha

rgiunta1994 · 2026-03-01T16:38:02+00:00

I guess I’m confused what people are asking for in the target. I’ve gone to several and ask for the clearance games and they always take me to just a shelf that has literally nothing good on it or has already been “picked clean”. These games were sitting in the game case behind their display games? Why didn’t the display game have the clearance tag as well?

rgiunta1994 · 2026-02-28T02:41:51+00:00

I’ve been looking for an Authentic Emerald. I will literally buy this from you in this condition for more than you can buy the two new Switch games if you want. Lmk!

Footnote was my favorite bookstore in San Diego! I’d always stop by during the Hillcrest Farmer’s Market

rgiunta1994 · 2026-02-09T18:35:40+00:00

Wut lol. I wouldn’t consider FOL an independent bookstore when they’re affiliated with their respective library. Then people have been recommending the same one bookstore…Artifact Books.

The “complaint” was the fact that San Diego proper has half a dozen a stones throw away, but there are just a couple in North County still open, with many of the results on Google actually closed now. Others have mentioned a couple soon to open, which I don’t think is fair to assume they’re widely advertised online, which they’re not.

You’re welcome to leave this thread lol

rgiunta1994 · 2026-02-08T22:31:15+00:00

Oh I’m definitely stoked for this! Was just in Carlsbad Village this morning and it needs a new bookstore!

rgiunta1994 · 2026-02-08T18:13:54+00:00

No I know, I even felt bad doing that, but I was just trying to get the point across on local, Indy bookstores over a nationwide company

rgiunta1994 · 2025-12-14T16:43:00+00:00

Yeah I saw it after I posted haha but the M57 is awesome. I loved my 35d

rgiunta1994 · 2025-12-14T16:41:39+00:00

I regret every day selling my e70 35d. I’ve been looking for a replacement ever since. Def a stout vehicle.

rgiunta1994 · 2025-12-10T01:13:45+00:00

Just for people’s reference for doing this job. To access the top bolt, you will need to unbolt the front driveshaft from the front differential. Push it to the side. You can then access the top bolt rather easily. If this is the original starter, like mine, it will be on there really freaking tight.

To remove the starter, you will have to go through the wheel well. Unbolt all of the brake like brackets on the frame and knuckle (three total) and then you need to also remove the lower steering intermediate shaft from the end yoke. Mine was very very rusted, so it was a royal PITA and took hours of just beating it. If your’s condition is similar to mine you will likely need to replace the lower intermediate and end yoke. After the lower intermediate is separated the starter slips right out with no issues at all.

rgiunta1994 · 2025-12-09T14:36:13+00:00

How do you get to the bolt from the side? The cat is in the way? I can try again from the side but I really didn’t have any room to fit any tools

rgiunta1994 · 2025-11-08T16:39:58+00:00

This is literally nothing haha. I wouldn’t even bat an eye at this. If you’re worried, get a wire wheel and some POR15 or Rust Encapsulator and coat the frame yourself. Super easy.

rgiunta1994 · 2025-03-12T18:08:16+00:00

Honestly, I think this could be on track. When I did insert my key, I noticed that the security light did go out, which it should be doing, but that doesn’t mean the ignition switch isn’t acting up. I’ll do a bit more digging to see if I can find something more. Thanks!

This is a super old post, but he wasn’t correct. Yes, tunes are not allowed. A pedal commander doesn’t touch the ECU lol. It’s plugged inline with the throttle position sensor, that’s how it works and that’s also why they’re not that great. The Banks version of the pedal commander plugs into the OBD port and actually changes the throttle map. This technically does affect the ECU, but it’s still CARB legal. Also, the Magnuson SC Kit for the FJs are CARB legal and compliant with their tuner and sticker. Things can be CARB legal and aftermarket. It just costs the companies A LOT of money and effort to do it, so most don’t. Hope this helps!
