As soon as the front end is fixed I will be picking up some decent alloy rims and Cooper tires that I found at Pepboys.

Searching for 1.3L with 5 speed but will fix this car and start modding.

On my way home Friday I managed to end the first 60 mile segment of the trip with an average of 31.5 mpg doing 85. (with A/C off)
I am aiming for 40mpg with A/C on at 75 when I finish the modding.
I can dream right?
Does the modding EVER finish?
My 1.3L manual did 40 mpg at 70 mph with the A/C on and the tires at 25 psi. You can do it!
