Well, when you buy one that cheap in that condition, of course your going to have to put some money into it and fix some stuff.
If the car was in mint shape and needed nothing fixed, you would have paid considerbly more for it.
It follows the old saying.......you get what you pay for.

yeah, and the moral of the story is????
don't buy a 10 year old car with 130k miles on it and expect to be able to mod it without SIGNIFICANT problems...sorry to hear it dude. might be better off driving this one till it dies and getting a newer 1.8 to mod....just my opinion....
