about to buy a1993 240 sr20det

i went and looked at this car, the engine looked really clean, no leaks or anything, but then i dont really know what to look for. i didnt drive, but rode in it while the dude selling did. it was really fast, it ran strong, and the clutch seemed to grab really well. hes was asking 6300, but its down to 5500 now, does that sound right? he has all the paper work and everything.

what should i look for? what kind of things usually go wrong with this swap? i came from a VW GTI so this is all new to me. any help would be really appreciated.

Well if i were you id try to get a actual test drive..not a test ride. So you can actually feel how the car reacts and etc.
