Says needs body work, watch out for bent and crumpled frame, and subframe.
Also he lists almost no details, go look at it and do a good inspection of it.
looks like it's lowered and has a kit, so check caster/camber wear, make sure he didn't cut the springs etc.

Take it to a mechanic and have them do a general inspection of the car. If something is noticeable, they should tell you. Also, if the guy has decent records, that is priceless.

Oh okay, well can i do a general inspection somehow? easier said than done to have a mechanic look at it, not to mention i dont have the $$$ for that. i talked to him, the car is lowered and the springs are cut, he says it was done "right" tho and the car doesnt bounce. So idk about that...

Also what u mean by decent records? Decent records of what? He has had problems with the law before i know that lol. he says hes under investigation lol

Thanks

edit: still no answers on the stage 3 clutch?

If the springs are cut, there's no way he could've done it "right." I say no trade. Sounds like he has abused the car to me

Maintenance records to show the car had routine maintenance done on time... Receipts for oil changes and other service...

I'll 2nd Jack there, if the springs are cut, it ain't done right.

Damnnn is it expensive to change the springs? i mean id want full coilovers eventually anyways on that car.

Does the cut springs mess things up and gonna cost me a lot of maintenance and problems?

Yea, cut springs will mess up a ton of things with your suspension. Not to mention it's dangerous to even drive.

i had a stage 3 in my relatively stock LS motor with GSR trans.

i abused the shit out of it, put 14k miles. and it still looks brand new.

now i'm rocking the same clutch with my b16 that has the same bolt ons as my LS, but i have a underdrive pulley, and chipped ecu.


personally, i LOVE the way 6puck clutches feel, that's why i bought the clutch.
