oh well, the fuel comsumption is getting worst and worst for daily driving(u'll know the gas price in HK is like $1.4 US$ PER LITER!). so i guess its about time for me to get another economy car(not S-15..sigh), i am thinking about to get someting fun like a Wagon R. should be pretty fun to drive it.

on the other side, i think my Evo will only use in weekends to show-off:):):) think i am going to put some big stickers on it, maybe a big "monster" sticker like the Evo4 in Initial D, lol
and i shoud make it to all show and all go, planning of upgrading the internals, Bozz Speed forged pistons and con rods is the first step in my mine now :p

later maybe a bigger turbo kit since now is prolly reaching the limit of stock turbine.

i think i am insane..UGH

I think your car is fuel efficient ... of course I'm speaking from my POV where mine gets 4-6 mpg city.

What is a Wagon R?

86 is very rare and condition of the car usually very bad, rust and stuff all over it. and no they are NOT cheap. freakin Comic make its price went up a lot
and hell even those big truck got that tofu shop sticker. that surely suck ****..

my car averages 25-28 mpg.. driving to LA or something its more like 34 mpg. On a side note I saw the article on the Bozz Evo.. *drool* I love the equal length manifold they have on there.. its very nice :)
