then you lose 3rd/4th, and forward/backward movement in general, and have them build you a more stout tranny.

Lesson #1 Jory, don't take your car to a dealer, unless you really have to. This especially holds true if you do any mods to the car. I hope they didn't charge you to flash the ecu (especially if they didn't tell you about it).

Do you know what else was done to the car? Depending on the mods, flashing the ecu could be bad, especially if you push the car. I'd recommend getting it flashed as soon as you can, and stay out of it in the meantime to be safe.

I'm sure I'd be divorced if I lived 15 minutes away from ER.

"carbon fiver hood"

Not only is it carbon, but it saves you $5!

Unless he meant "High Fiver", but seems way to asian for that!

That car has a 4G92 Mivec engine (rare engine, pointless swap) and a bone stock interior and suspension set up. The car was sold in that same condition for less than 3 grand a few months ago.

so are you saying that its a good car and i can get it for way less than what he's asking? how does an 01 mirage interior look like? i've never seen one in person yet.

im looking for a daily driver that will save me on operating cost such as gas+insurance. anything and similar to a b16 swapped honda civic.
