Default History inquiry for 97 ITR #022

Hello HT!

I would like to see if anyone here has some valuable information they can share with regards to 97 ITR #022. I know the previous owner; he didn't do much to the vehicle or had too much knowledge about its history. Seems like the vehicle was located in MD when he got it. That's all I can gather at this point. I would like to know if anything of significance, besides the front end replacement, was done to it. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

-Jose

Hah! Ok. Let me be a little more specific here. What I'm looking for is mostly specific to ownership. Unless any of the following were done at the stealership, they won't show up in carfax: engine swapped then back to original engine; turboed/supercharged then back to stock; original engine worked on/rebuilt by owner; etc.

I just e-mailed a previous owner (not sure if it was your friend or not). It was added to the registry November 2010 with 117k on it, JDM front end, and comptech exhaust manifold. I sent the old owner a link to this thread.

IIRC this car was for sale in NJ last year, and the previous owner (the one who sold it to you) bought it to flip it.

Tyrant 007 - Thank you! We will see what comes out of that...if anything.

crx(gator) - bought the car in Virginia Beach. I was just trying to find out if any engine work had been done to it. From the looks of things, I won't be getting too much information, if any, from here. It's all good. The car is in running condition. Since it's not my DD, I have had time to play with, upgrade some parts, and pay attention to areas that needed attention. I don't plan on moving it any time soon. What the future holds for it? Who knows. Time will tell. For the time being, I'll continue to make it better and have fun with it. Thank you for the information provided. Cheers!

Thanks! That's good to know. Now, if I could find some information about the maintenance/upkeep/upgrades of the car, that would be great. If not, no worries. I foresee an engine build/rebuild in the future .
