Message	I bought the 96 several months ago and have gone through quite a bit in maintenance. Car currently has 133K, compression is good ~165-170 in all cylinders, was a 1 owner that passed away and I bough it. It was maintained fairly well and totally stock besides the POP charger I just installed. I'm looking at a '93 with half that many miles and is a 2 owner car that was well maintained by the Nissan dealer. Both are basically the same price, same color. I like the thought of having a motor with half that many miles as well as the trans, but not sure if it would be a good move? I don't plan on going mod crazy, just intake exhaust and ECU (Stage III) or so. The 96 runs strong, clutch feels good, but I don't know if it's every been changed (don't think so) and it does have a slight exhaust leak upon warm up, but it seals up when the motor warms up. 1996 TT #61 of 300
