oh and my ball joints did turn out to be bad don at performance got it on a lift and told me ball joints are shot ( i kept trying to do the test, which you cant do on these cars, they have an indicator) and that my oil pan gaskets pushing out and its gonna start leaking like mad one day, and that my rear upper control arm bushings are deteriorating. my friends ordering the stuff for the ball joints and some used a arms so we can just swap out the a arms. and i think next oil change im gonna loosen all the oil pan gaskets and try to push the gasket back in. hmmm...

and to recap:

before right after i got it pretty much

AWESOME! mine had 124k on it when i took it apart. It still ran great, but i was going slower at the track, found that i broke the #1 piston ring (top ring) in half, so i decided to do a rebuild from there.

Only things that ever went on my car were the alternator(s), water pump, and basic maintenance stuff... i LOVE my car :nice:
 
knock on wood but i have had nothing break on this car yet. nothing that is big enough to remember, ive driven it over 19k miles while ive owned it. and i dog it sometimes. i do allot of preventive maintenance i guess. im getting bad with backing up into crap however, ive hit 2 liscence plate bolts by backing into them, and my gfs driveway, which curled my tailpipe (grey 5.0 stepped up and sent me one, i owe him allot) and tore up my bumper corner.
 
No problem bro, I have been helped so many times by ppl on here you wouldn't believe. Car looks great BTW. 100k... those were the days, my dad DD'ed mine from 91-01 and it sat for about 3 years in a garage being a weekend car and has been my DD for the past couple years, 148k and going strong!!
