Sister has a B14 5-speed that she is regularly getting 40-50mpg without any mods. With a hip injury and wife that refused to drive my 5 speed I decided to get another car. Goal was to get a car that would get as good as average as the 5-speed car I was currently driving and had a low cost so I could experiment and mod without worry about hurting the value.

Car as I bought it
Mild mods
Wild mods
Car is a daily driver so some things are a compromise.
