im buying another FC

so i think im selling my NA FC and my 1st gen to buy this car
it has 700miles on a pineapple racing engine.
street ported,3mm seals,3 inch polished racing beat exhaust,FMIC,aluminum rad.,safc2,and a few other mods.
the gay wheels will have to go.
and the mesh in the front bumper is lame.
other than that it is pretty nice.
tell me what you guys think.

Good call on compression test. You should definately buy that car and a new front bumper cover.

good luck with the sales and purchase.

the rims are ok i guess. just not really my style.
i guess it could be the small tires that make them look funny.
as far as the compression goes im sure its good.
he has all papers for the pineapple rebuild.
plus i know the guy well enough to be sure he is honest about the build.
i live in one of those towns where everyone knows who you are. (22'000 people)
im going to drive it and inspect it on wed.
i will get more pics up then.

Can't help you on the air/fuel ratio, but it doesn't sound like something you can't fix. I'd buy it.

Mine has a rebuilt engine with only about 10K miles on it. In my case though, the seller needed the cash bad.

very nice you should jump on it, you will be ahead of alot of us with teh engine mods.. This guy must know his rotarys. It must be in great condition.

i just dont get how such a beast car, and the owner having bad taste in wheels and lack of aggressive suspension to compliment the added hp/engine mods..
