sweet car....low HP

Yo,
I just bought a 2000 zx2 from a private party. its got 53k miles and it runs well and all, I was just hoping for something a little more powerful, esp in terms of acceleration. Of course it can be made that way, but being fairly new to the world of cars and newer to the ZX2, I don't really know how...yet. I am looking for something not highly expensive but I want good quality and am willing to go expensive for better, longer lasting quality. Any help or ideas??

...why did you buy the car if you knew it wasnt powerful enough?

I didn't, I hadn't tested the car. I don't mind it not being powerful at first, I just want to know how to change that.

O sorry i think i read your post like "What car should i trade the zx2 in for."

Hmmmm for the zx2 i would start off with some UR pullies, headers, and full catback. you should notice a difference there.

thnx, will do

UR pully? u mean a UD pully?
udp, 4-2-1 header, 2.5 catback, FR wires, intake.

auto or 5spd?

i actually meant the Unorthodox Racing underdrive pulleys. but yeah.

Unorthodox racing is a HUGE ripoff $214 that gives the same gains as the $120 Esslinger/Ford Racing and less gains then the $109 AF/X pully

Unorthodox is a shity company
