lols, its a constant dice up between power and performance, although you can get an LPG conversion on most petrol cars, and u get a button to press between petrol (speed/power), LPG (economy) and you can buy LPG fuel for 28p a litre....

Ive got a '90 Mazda RX-7. So far Ive upgraded the intake and exhaust so she's completely free-flowing. Also have front and rear strut braces. It has a n/a rotary engine now making about 190 hp, when you rev it up (redline is 8000) it sounds sweet

I've got an '87 peugeot 309. It's mods include washing it twice last year & fitting a new tyre to it's f/n/s. It has a massive 1100cc inline 4 with the standard carb. She will do nearly 100mph down a very steep hill when I put up the extra sails! An anchor thrown swiftly out of the drivers' side window improves braking by almost 1/4 of a mile. The stereo has a mind of its' own, & is inaudible over 50mph.
Beat that suckers!!!

wouldn't putting sails up when accelerating down a steep hill generally slow you down, kinda like a parachute? ;-P

Not if you have a very stiff breeze behind you!! I am very particular when the sails go up!!!
Especially the spinnaker.
Quite correctly it would slow it down, these serve as extra braking when the rope from my anchor breaks. They have double usage.
Very handy, as I like to get my moneys worth out of this new fangled technology!
And a bottle or rum, me hearties,

if anyone is still watchin this thread (and in that case keeping it serious, as is not particularly apparent) i have a honda civic 1.6 SE (yes its a rare model that have almost no performance parts so im f'ed in that way). its mods include streetglow undercar neon and LED shift knob, as well as clarion system with audiobahn amplifier and sony xplod 12" subwoofer. near future mods are an aftermarket muffler (backbox), trunk (boot)neon, hood neon and cold air intake if i can find one to fit (help on this would be greatly appreciated)

Does that model have an injection engine? Have you tried putting UV dye in the water?

I had another thread on here but I think the stupid host would never display the pics correctly.

I loaded the images on image dump for those of you who didn't see the other pics. I apologize once again for the crappy pictures. Took them with my shitty camera phone.

To recap it's a 99 Eclipse GST. Tbe body kit, rims, wing, etc... came with the car as I bought it from a friend. Only replacement is T-28 turbo.

Lol, Pulsar. I wasn't talking about afterdawn, I meant the place where I hosted the pictures. It's just some free webspace I had just to toy with just because they gave a free sql database. They're the crappy host, the pictures would never work.
