Agreed, never owned the Calmini but the extra $250 you save can go toward HD torsion bars &/or HD tie rods.Quote:

If i can get ahold of a welder, I may chop them off and replace with some angled square tubing. But again, it'll do for now. :_beer:
To the cold air intake, like the previous poster said that's just an intake. You wouldn't want a cold air intake on one of these unless it was a snorkel. Cold air intakes normally are routed down out of the engine bay to suck in ambient temperature, that still gets affected by the engine temps.
Looks like a steal for that price.
Lots of mods tend to drive me away personally. Being in the Subie crowd, once the hood has been popped, she's off limits. heh.
So how many owners has this been through? Hopefully they have all been through here and can be contacted to try to get some service history/mod work information.

I'll be looking into it a bit further after work today. I think it's just a connectivity issue. I did get a carfax showing all preventative maintenance and service records. They were done regularly up til the time I bought it. Also, as I mentioned previously, the third owner replaced the engine with a rebuild at around 60k, so the rebuilt engine has around 66k on it.
8 owners?!?! Mother of things great and small!!!!
I would get that VX exorcised. It is cursed or has a demon. Unless of course, there is some Ancient Aliens activity involved.

Haha! Well I'll say this, aliens or no aliens, it took some form of divine intervention to bring me and this beast together. You may call it a curse, but others might call it fate..
