what to check for?

[jeef]

aight here is the dealio, my friend is looking into getting a 88 crx hf, with a b18c in it, it also has N2O hooked up, i think the guy said it was a 80 shot but not 100% sure, we will be taking a trip to check it out, it's several hundred miles away so it'll prolly be one trip, what should i look for to make sure its in good condition with the N2O? what questions should i ask before we even go. i already asked what kit he put on it but didn't get a reply as of yet. the guy actually seems to be knowledgable so thats a plus. um also when i take it out for a test drive( i will prolly be doin all of that as he has no licience and isn't too fam. with honda's, he's used to big ol' cars, like camaros) what should i look for in the way the engine responds to the nitrous if its all hooked up and i can give it a crack what should i look for and becafe i don't do? never drove, or even rode in a car with it. i know only at wot, but do i necessary have to be in any specific gear? i know not to try it in first as it goes by really quick. how long will the burst last?
what should i look for when the engine kicks into V-TEC, it does have a V-TEC controller i know of, uh i know what to look for in general when looking to buy a car, but i've never bought a hybrid before or rode in a V-TEC equiped car so i don't know what to expect. anything i should really look for?

sorry for the novel just wanna get some info

The burst will last as long as you keep it at WOT, so you can have it on until it redlines (or beyond the redline if you wanna blow the engine and say "hey, it's not my car"). When you shift it should stop spraying. BTW, when you're lookin' over the car just mumble things like "hmm...that'll need to be replaced", and "wow, that's in sh!tty shape". I'm sure he'll knock the price down even futher.

ah, i don't know how much of that i'll be able to do, it looks to be in great shape and he is asking 5,500 for it, guess i'll find out soon enough, hopefully, i just wanna drive it hehe
