clarencel,
is it recall u refering to recond? if u want to check ur car.... simply bring ur car to any AAM outlets...
recond means that ur car had been used by first owner...than that person decided to sell the car.... so...in simplified words, the car went back to the factory, rebuilt... and sent to anywhere in the world... there is a diffrent between recond car and secondhand car... in terms of interest rate and condition itself...
speed cut???? when u reach around 187...play around with ur clutch abit... it might go up to 240++... if u dont want to do it.... get the HKS SLD....make sure it is the TYPE 3.... tag is around rm1280....but i suggest u get use to driveng ur car first before u install the sld....unless u've been dring the rear drive car before... it's kind a scary a bit when u lost control
