Soo EJ8's what should I look for? Are there any common problems that I should pay extra attention to? Cheers in advance :)

power windows usually come out of the rails sooner or later and also clutch line gets squeaky if thats what you call it

get some spare power window motors from the hatchback not the coupes, they have superior motors which are bigger

changing the shifter bushings would improve things alot

get rid of the std 14s forever

check for cv boot tears as they're brittle as anything when they're aged and they don't last terribly long at all (inner boots and outter boots) better still buy two new oem equivalent shafts with boots for 380 and call it a day

other than those problems everything else works like clockwork
