Thumbs down

I want you to know , you are not buying this car for crazy driving skill or whatever that the series has told ....

This car have batter handling compare to other compact car or front wheel drive car .And this car is so light compare to the same class of car. so before you learn how to drive it , you better not do any modification on it. (the car reaction so fast and also conut on the driver driving skill) + please don't use any rim more then 14" , becasuse it will making the car under power (Jap only use 13" rim and wider front wheel chamber angle, about 3.0 degree)

Low down the suspension (untill can't even enter a full finger) Use wider sport tyre , the one with hyper grip on wet and dry condition. 2nd change the ECU controller or using 3rd party ECU controller (G-ready etc) using 0.8 mm gasket set ,4th change to adjustable Cam pully (HKS etc) 5th Lighter flywheel .

The standard of the engine are design to rev 9000rpm limit . toyota reduce it for safty reason .

heh plz dont critisize me.. i do understand people are angry that everyone wants to get this car due to ID and me as well.. tho i dont plan on tossing some big wheels on it, slaming it to the ground, tweaking out the engine, or any thing in that area.

I have looked at the background of this car and read reviews of people who have owned them when they first came out, i also found that that they have a rather durable transmition.. hope this part it true. tho i dont care if it dont. i have read that the car is also a nice dependable care even past 300,000miles and i want one to be diffrent.. cus no one in this area has one... everyones got themselfs h2's, hondas, lancers, corverts and so on...

dont get me rong i figuer if i do get one that it may need work on the engine, body, interor or what not.. and i kinda look forward to thos projects.. but i also want to keep it as close to orignal spec as i can.
