Hi Guys,

Bought this car in January from a guy in Toronto, I imported it to Montreal, passed inspection (the HARD part). Changed the wheels and made a few repairs.

Repaired items since purchase:
- Leaky Differential (changed all seals, output seals + gasket)
- Sloppy shifter (shifter mounts)
- Transmission output shaft seal + gear selector rod seal
- Drivers Engine Mount
- Both Front Wheel Bearings
- Horn + turn-signal indicators

Purchased Parts
- 15" BBS RMs (15x7front + 15x8rear) with new Toyo 195/45/15
- Rear Strut bar with battery perch
- Euro Turn signals

Still Need attention
- Hole through driver side floor (was patched up to pass inspection) but ideally I wanted to cut it out and weld in a piece
- Little rust on driver door, driver rear fender
- Little rust bubble on passenger door
- Gas smell in trunk (common '02 issue)
- Door seal + Truck seal
- odometer doesn't work
- Paint is old

thanks dude.. I'll probably just end up keeping it. I didn't even post it anywhere else, not a motivated seller to say the least but if someone stepped up, I'd sell it. Ernest (Bob Jones) and Kosta (montrealgti) just wouldnt be happy with me ;)

It's just not "smart" to keep it :p, but no one ever accused me of being a smart guy ;)
