I wouldn't even consider buying a used car with 90K miles unless it is a classic and I planned on restoring it. Not only is the drivetrain worn out, the suspension bushings, arms, joints are as well. Then theres the problem with rust eating away everything.
It might be ok for a trip around town, but if your friend is going to race the car then there will most likely be problems.

RSX Type S arent that great on boost... stock internals and 350whp is pushing it... high compression ftl. If you where talking about an SRT-4 then 350whp is easy but then again good luck hooking up a 350whp Type S with no LSD even... and if you made 350whp the total bill would not be 17,000 anymore... more like $24,000. The figures for boosting where put out there and it ain't cheap.

Anyways, it usually always comes down to driving ability. I was at Streets of Willow(in my Honda) this weekend and passed two ARIEL ATOMS on the track. My car is quick and highly modded, but they should have been toying w/ me...
