Hi,

I'm looking at possibly purchasing the above said car. It looks like it's got a few minor mods, exhaust, HKS BOV. The car cosmetically looks okay, but I'm worried about the mechanical bits.

I do know turbos only have a life of around 80-100K mi more or less so I know that could be a problem on this car.

What else starts to go out on these cars when the mileage ticks over 100K. I'm trying to find out now what the owner has done to maintain it, I just want to make sure his list matches up closely with what you guys think should be done to these cars.

Thanks,
Joel

compression, compression, compression. If your getting it for a good price it'd be worth it to rebuild the engine before it goes out on it's own.
