thinking of buying this car what do you guys think?

[Jabes]

im trying to decide if i should buy this car http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/850209228.html the guy said he would take 2,300
but i have a few questions... the guy said that the turbo has around 10,000 miles on it and the clutch has around 17,000 miles on it... how long does a turbo usually last and since its tuned with neptune what do i need to do to lower the boost because its gonna be my first car and i think that 250whp would be a little too much for me.

if its your first car i dont think that would be good to start off with, simply becasue it wont be reliable...you dont wanna buy something you cant fix or take care of yourself...

unless youre willing to rebuild that bottom end, and you know how to, id pass this up

 

[dylan si]

^^^ that and you will need to rebuild the bottom end on it cause he says its blown

 

[Jabes]

bottom end isn't a problem i know a little about motors and have a friend that works on hondas all the time and can get a bottom end for $150 that my friend just pulled off a running car that hes parting out

Uhhh buy it take out the turbo and sell it for parts or give me all the turbo components and ill take them happily! haha just about finished paying my teg off

 

[Jabes]

since its tuned with neptune is it possible to take off the turbo without swapping ecus?

 

[mpcali69]

personally turbo is nice but it always seems like theres something to fix. wouldnt really want turbo for a daily driver. just my 2 cents
