> Yea, I fully plan on it. If I weren’t in such a needed hurry to get the car I would wait it out and have him look at it before buying it, but I really need to get something so I can get this Jetta fixed. Worse comes to worse if Adam says that its not done right and not reliable then I’ll have to either sell it and try again or do what I can to fix it now (before the troubles start). I really think it will be alright though because he did get on it pretty damn hard and I specifically listened for any kind of knock/ping and didn’t hear anything (i know it doesn’t mean there isn’t, but if it were that bad it would be noticeable)

The car was owned by a professional mechanic. It was well maintained. If there was anything wrong with it, it would have been fixed by Gus. Just enjoy the car

I know its like beating a dead horse but Howard from Redline is a professional mechanic, would you trust him?

Telling someone to trust them when that person doesn’t even know them is not easily done and since when did getting a second opinion ever become a bad thing?

I have no doubts in gus’s work and i told him that. I just want to make sure the motor wasn’t pushed too far and on its last leg. I doubt there will be any issues but I want to be sure before I dip 17.5k.

When people buy their own cars they tend to want them to last. 17k is a lot of money when you have other priorities in life.

I think adam does the compression and leak down tests in his pre-purchase inspections.

I’m LOLing at him wanting it to last 6 years. It’s a built Sti, not a stock civic. Good luck to you sir. It is a really nice clean car for a good price.

Ouch! Are they really that bad? Fuck me, I’d never buy one if they are bad as people are saying. I’ve had substantial mods on everything I’ve owned and never had reliability issues. Come to think of it, the worst car I ever owned was a stock ‘97 Legacy GT. Fuckin’ thing broke every other week.
