Problem list: -All suspension bushings shot (and I do mean ALL... couldn't even align it due to that). -very loud valvetrain tick -didn't idle well (2 foot while stopping was the norm) -normal temp was right on the edge of the red -tranny would overheat and bang shift -rear brakes junk (replaced all parts, still didn't work worth a crap) -power locks didn't work Otherwise was a good beater car IMO, I'm sure if I kept it I could have got well over 200K out of it. Oh, and welcome to CEG... Last edited by Kane; 04/15/05 04:15 PM. Goin' Round Traffic Circles @ 50Km/h!!! \m/ -- 1998 E0 SVT #2119 of 6535 \m/ -- 2003 Sentra SE-R Spec V

Well, actually I still managed to drive it back 50 miles with a leaky radiator and it still ran great! 95 SE MTX svt exhaust intake deer killer
