Re: I just got a 92 vr4
The block was ruined? I could understand internals being screwed up, but it takes alot to mess up these blocks....

Re: I just got a 92 vr4
Well the previouse owner drove it at 130 mph with very very low oil. and low coolant. And it had a bad noise coming from the bottom end and he still drove it the next day. Will that mess up the block?

Re: I just got a 92 vr4
why would you buy a car from someone who treated it like shit?
I have a 92 VR4, owned by some rich family. Bought it on 2/19/04. Has only been in the shop 1 time, and that was to get new brakes (of course they will wear out eventually) Best investment I've ever made.

Re: I just got a 92 vr4
lol milage is just a general indicaitor, oil and coolant are nesisary for any engine to continue running even one with low milage. Usually when it comes to cars if it looks too good to be true it is... and it'll sound like it's on it's last legs, I say new motor!
