still rockin and rollin. some answers to previous queries. 1. i tow a trailer and deliver bread. 2. im serious when i say i have done NOTHING to the transmission. havent pulled the dipstick in a year. 3. made in japan you are incorrect about the timing belts. i changed at 200000, 370000, and 530000. currently at 124000 and counting. thats kilometers. WARNING: im not advocating that people change at those intervals. i do a lot of HIGHWAY driving and apparently that gives you a longer shelf life on that thingy. im not even remotely an expert on how to fix anything, but i am an expert on what kind of abuse this car can take and still keep on truckin. signed, put down that pita and eat some bread
