thats awfully cheap for a mk3 with all those mods. i would look into it, atleast check it out, maybe have a mechanic/friend look at it. take it for a drive, listen for odd sounds/feelings (bumps, pulls to one side, etc). if its legit its def a deal, look into it.

a lot of times.. when someone says "freshly rebuilt" "new headgasket".. they tried it themselves. messed it up and they know it wont last a lot longer because why would they dump about two grand worth of work (including labor time) into their car then sell it soo cheap? to get rid of it? exactly!

Turned out the that the front crossmember had major cracks in it....required a
$200 part from a junkyard but to get it from Toyota was like $1100. Also the rear brake lights are out. I found the $200 part in Cali, as far as everything else it is pretty legit, full 3" exhaust and the engine seems solid (so far)......

Custom 3 inch stainless exhaust with Cat...passed emissions in NY April this year...I still have to get it through NJ but I don't think that will be a huge problem..
