    yeah, exactly. What kind of moderator are you? I posted an anonymous thread about this experience on another forum and was heavily exhorted to share my experience in the FS thread to inform other potential buyers. There is no hating going on here. Nothing slanderous or personal attacks. Im...

    No, you have to post the good and the bad to protect potential buyers. I'm not randomly flaming, I actually looked at this car. Anyone think my waste of four hours and $60 in gas and tolls sounded like fun?

    the right rear endlink was dangling. it was either broken, or completely unscrewed itself since I saw it was threaded. I realize the car is slammed, its just that the exhaust hangs very low. Even if the suspension was raised a few inches the exhaust would still be super low. Its not just plastic...

    Just went to look at this car. I'm gonna try not to post anything disparaging. Just the facts, and why I didnt buy it. Mostly things that were not mentioned in the ad or in any of the communications I had with the seller. Just trying to save anyone who might be looking to make a trip without...

    Well, there's somewhat significant body damage, a non-original trans, and power mods that make you wonder about the integrity of the motor. Plus she has a deadline so I get the low price...

    That does make quite the difference. Shame on him for pooing this thread up. I assumed it was a full price offer. Wouldnt make sense to sell for less, thats a great deal. Any chance you can PM me your phone#? The second my car sells I'll be calling you for directions :D

    Still waiting on Vin. What you should really do is post a free eBay classifieds ad. When you put in the Vin it will give a free autocheck history report.

    Protege 18s Rub, HELP!! Aftermarket struts needed?????

    the camber changes relative to the the strut when you lower the car, thus the tire will not get any closer to the strut no matter how low you drop it or how hard you turn. The sidewall may flex into the side of the strut on an extremely hard turn with max grip, but the wheel, hub, knuckle, strut...

    Protege 18s Rub, HELP!! Aftermarket struts needed?????

    I dont understand how they're only rubbing the struts with added weight in the car. the distance between the wheel and strut should not change no matter how much weight is in the car...the wheel is bolt to the hub to the knuckle, to the strut, it shouldn't move. now when you compress the spring...
