Its not too crazy or wild, but I want to fix up and eventually mod up my 93 Toyota Tercel. Its my first car. Step one is get it running again (needs brake work and fuel pump/tank put back in). It also needs body work (ideally). Step two is hybridization. Adding a ~100hp electric drive to it. The setup I'm thinking of would allow electric mode, gas mode (1.5l, 82 hp), or combined / fun (180hp) mode. It would be great fun, and have enough electric range for my daily commute and a little more. This would be in addition to some eco/aero mods like regearing the trans, LRR tires, grill block, etc.
