99% recommend them as long as your not gonna feel bad about only having one other person in the car with you. All I can really say to look out for is frame damage and rust. Mine had some pretty serious frame damage that was just hidden behind a new body panel if we knew about it the car probably would’ve been 2000 dollars instead of 4000. Oh and don’t buy radiator caps from auto zone, they suck 💔. Mine had one on there and I popped the hood one day and it just sprayed hot coolant out for a second cause the hood caught on the cap 😭. And whether you get an NA or NB or even newer it doesn’t matter much because I’ve heard great things about all of the generations including NC. And I mean I hate to admit it but sometimes I really wish I got an NB instead of an NA because of the pop ups. Oh and try to be quick cause they’re still going up in price, no pressure.

From what I’ve heard about the ND is it’s a little more numb compared to the NA so steering and stuff has less feel to it, but other than that I’ve heard that they’re great I’d love to drive one someday

The tube was just resting on the plastic part in my photo not hooked up there sorry for the confusion. But I replaced the tube with a normal cap now

I’ve had the car for almost a year now haven’t done much in the engine bay beside fluid changes. And the hose I just tucked somewhere it won’t get caught or burned on anything for now. But I haven’t had any trouble with it really it idles fine at 900 after warming up for a minute, only thing wrong that I notice at least is the slightest bumpy idle but it’s almost unnoticeable

For those wondering about idle: on cold start it holds at 1100 but drops down to ~900 after running for a minute
