im generally against buying swapped cars.
i would mainly be concerned with the tranny, axles, and swap package as a whole. IMO thats the most important part of any swapped car. wiring, hose routing, mounts, things like that all need to be checked out and tested before you buy. a quick 5 minute ride dont work. you need to drive it in all conditions (city, highway, crusing, stoplights ect.) -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

Thanks for the insight* Im having a hard time keeping my "poker face"
...I dont know any redblooded teenage male that wouldnt want a turboed car. I thought long and hard about buying my 95ST ...but since ive already driven the 6gc, wouldnt the only difference would be the engine, trany, and brakes? -------------------- poopra sellout... 88targa, 50trim ct, 383lsd, and shreadin tires like its my job!!!
