Hey Yonzie,

Dont give up man, this is part of the risk of buying a second hand car, in the end it often will turn out not to be as bad as you think.

When I bought my car I had cheap ass tires on it aswell that kept loosing pressure. When I finally put my yoko's on alot of problems just went away, no more vibration, no more strange behaviour when driving. So definately get yourself some better tires.

Your shifter problem sounds formiliar two, but I've only had my car suddenly jump out of gear when in 2nd and drifting.. This is a problem, hope you find what is causing it. I have to agree with Ivan I find it doubtfull its the clutch. Unfortunately it does sound like something that may be harder to fix then a broken clutch...

Rust spots, paint chipping, broken wiperblades and all that are perfectly normal for a 20 year old car. It'll take you some time but bit by bit you should be able to fix those bits cheaply enough aslong as there are no major rust spots.

And as for the exhaust, again a common problem for a 20 year old car. Ask around with the other danish guys, possibly someone has some 2nd hand bits you can use while you save up for a full new exhaust.

Anyways, good luck with getting your hachi back into shape. Just take it one step at a time and before you know it, you'll have a hachi that you can trust and wont let you down
