i then got it a roadworthy and it was on the road i got the air con re gased now its ice cold great for those summer days that are fast reproaching and replace the stuffed water pump and put anew timing belt on it while i was at it and picked up a set of 17s for it cheaply
then my rusted exhaust finally broke off at the diff leaving it sounding pretty badly and defectable so i got a cannon installed on it and left the front muffler on so it just has a nice lil note to it and isnt loud at all
i then tinted the tail lights and repainted the rear trims on it its looking alot better now then when i got it

really easy to work on and they love sliding out hehe ecspecially the fornt ends
