Why don\'t you ask them if it\'s been rebuilt already ?
There\'s alot of valid and useful info on the auction sheet you shouldn\'t just buy on the grade and the fact that you like the lok of it otherwise you can be in for some expensive suprises when it arrives.

Most USS auctions can tell you how many owners, history including rebuild. A lot of the times the full history isnt written on the auction sheet. But if you call the auction the day before with the unit number. They are more than happy to explain.
A stock rx7 fd3s was sold last week at Whitewings auction last Thursday for 340000 yen with 134000 km\'s on the clock. On the auction sheet It had a rebuild at 105000km\'s. Make a nice saving if you purchase one of them.

BTW J8PRX, you pm\'d me mate but my inbox was full. Tis all clear now.

Cheers
