Yeah, most people ignore so it goes to crap. 92k is a long time without doing any fluids.

Keep an eye on the internal gaskets, they deteriorate. They make aluminum LIM gaskets for our engines, if you have the access to the shop time you can do that pretty cheap and guarantee that engine lasting a very very long time.

It's the navy blue model, really nice color I like it a lot. I was hoping for a yellow one but at that price I settled for blue. haha. I do have shop time, I'll keep an eye on those gaskets and probably replace them within the next 6 months. There's a track about 30 minutes from my house, so this winter I'll be working on building it to race next season! I'm excited for my Monte. I'll get some pictures posted as soon as I have access to a decent camera!

LoL `Dallas, no I just found that track on the `web when you posted you were going to race close to your area. I'd love 2 race there or anywhere, but I've never been to another state in the USA, but Florida (I have been outa country).

I used to drag race with my 1st ride (a Honda Del Sol VTEC, that I mod'ed & put a turbo on it) It was fun, but I made the mistake to race on the street & got caught ..It was a very expensive & hard lesson to learn (Wow, I'm sounding like a grown `up) LOL "Please listen my child" LOL~>WoW

Wish you good luck gett'in your Monte the way you want it to `be..You sure got it at a good price & I hope you get it in Top condition b-4 U hit the track...Good Luck & we'll be look'in 4 your updates~> Peace/Out
