Not saying 3mm seals are a bad thing, but doing the machine work to adapt the rotors to use 3mm seals takes some skill - not all engine builders can do it right.

this! definitely a big indication that something is odd.

I have my own opinions on 3mm seals and I won't spill it here (not a fan of them at all) nor am I a fan of the company that did the tuning on the car either. Plus the chassis has 200k on it. The list of why I wouldn't buy this car far outweighs the list of why i would.

though if the car is for sale for $9000 i'd consider it as a parts car. The mod/sales list he posted looks like a train wreck at best IMO
