Re: oh yeah finally i got my 1.8 engine swap
im totally behind mitmaks on that one, thats something alot of people dont understand around here, i kill everything around here, cause all they have is rims body kit and intake and exhaust at most, i mean there are alot of people that got there cars hooked up pretty good, but theres more of them "all show and no go" cars runnin round. im a firm believer of being fast before looking fast......

Re: oh yeah finally i got my 1.8 engine swap
Well, as usual, I have to disagree to some extent because of my recent veiw on things. Although I could at the moment afford to do a BP swap if I did all the work myself (not that hard...), I doubt I could afford to drive it, especially with a turbo. However, by doing only appearance mods, I can atleast feel pleased while driving, even if I am lacking in speed. Sure, I would love to be able to pay the extremely cheap $2.40+ (92 OCT)a gallon with half the MPG for turbo, instead of $2.20ish (87 OCT) and 40+ mpg...but at the moment my schedule wont allow for a full time job to support that. So I guess what I'm trying to say, don't just blindly assume everyone should follow the "go before show" rule.Originally posted by tical:

Anyways, to attempt to stay somewhat on topic, I agree with everyone else; turbo.
Arn't I a hypocrite

Re: oh yeah finally i got my 1.8 engine swap
Well I'm a firm believer in doing what you want to your car and just loving the whole sport compact scene and saying f*ck you to guys like you.....LIke what your parents tell when your a kid, do what makes you happy and if thats a body kit and huge as* spoiler, then fine and if you have a huge turbo runnin low 10's, then thats cool too, but both kinds of people deserve loads of respect and have put their sweat and time into their rides...so lets STOP descriminating against "all show no go" guys and girls...we all love the MX-3 and the hobby of making a our car unique to the way WE WANT IT!Originally posted by tical:
