#281216 little update i was going to buy another sedan ex model for cheap from my friend but he decided to keep it but he's going to sell me the motor for an unbelievable low price i can't pass off
cons:
it has 250,000+ miles on it
the car has been overheating even though he got a new radiator, the head has been resurfaced and got new head gasket just recently; from what he told me he re-used the OEM head bolts

pros:
its going to be uber cheap
its USDM don't have to worry about smog
easier to find parts for
i know the history on it meaning it's not stolen :thumb:

I'll be pulling the motor out this week hopefully depending on the weather but before I'll be doing a compression test to check. Regardless i want to rebuild it to know it'll be reliable for the future.
