make sure the gears go into all gears smoothly, PPF is straight (shifter at the right height), excessive clunking, ignition breakups

compression should be 9.0:1 on all rotor faces, and boost should read 10-8-10 (8happens around 4500rpm)

If its auto just remember no one wants them when you are negotiating a price. Be prepared to walk away trust me this guy is desperate to sell this car no one wants.

Jim has a very good point. What is the asking price for the FD?

Listen for bad rear differential mounts... If you let off the gas in low gear and you hear a clunk from the back of the car, it's got a bad mount(s), and that's about $500+ fix.
