Re: Looking to buy an Evo - Need help

Last weekend I worked on his Evo for over 18 hours to fix issues that it had. His is also 2 years newer then mine too. My Evo has 130k miles and it drives, shifts and runs perfect and better then a few lower mile ones that I have ridden in first hand.

Yep, my wifes has over 90k(not as much as yours, but not low miles) on it and it's engine is perfect and the tranny shifts perfect. Bent valves are somewhat common on these motors, leaky valve seals are common too. Grinding trannies, especially into 3rd is common too. A lot of low mile cars are much more screwed up than hers, you just have to drive each car and see how it feels. Suspension, brake, and tranny wise a lot of modded one perform worse than if they were stock.
