Flares were stock on 90-92 GTI 16v's.
As for boost, none at the moment, but I plan on running ~17 on pump gas, and 20-22 on race gas. |

maintenance was a bitch and was the equivelent of trying to keep an italian exotic on the road evenoil filters and spark plugs were high ticket special order items
so once i ventured to this side ogf the pond the passion got the better of me
most of my friends drive german cars , which i find funny as coming from europe i have had enough of those to last a lifetime
also love japanese cars especially JDM such as a skyline--one day!!!! |
How ironic, my story is very similar. Coming from Europe, all of ous were dreaming to own a mustang LOL.
I always laugh people who love low end german cars, especially with bimmers and benzes because in most EU countries they are pretty much equivalent to a neon |

Nice SV. Gotta love that v-twin torque. |
Yup! Lots of low and midrange power. 70lbs.-ft. for a machine weighing 490lbs. wet, delivering max tourque at 7000 rpm's well before the 11,000RPM redline. |

I love the Acura RSX. I just bought my first car, and I wanted either, a Mazda 3 or an Acrua RSX. A little outta my price range though. Plus, 2 door when you have a baby equals a lot of banging your head.
I ended up buying a 2002 Oldmobile Alero. I actually love this car.
My boyfriend drives an S2000. I love his car too! |
