[19festiva90]

now thats the kinda girl i need to find.lol do you know where to get a lip kit from?

[eurotiva]

Lowes/home depot/ace hardware/boat place/ where ever you can find the stuff u need to make what u want or if u have $1200 to blo then look at festivamotorsports.com and they have a cool body kit.

[19festiva90]

yeah but i dont like the whole ricer look. Lowes? i was just looking on another forum and there is one car on there with just the slightest lip kit.

[eurotiva]

cool i am more into go than show

[19festiva90]

yeah me to on a budget
car 350$
clutch 100$
paint 15$
all the work priceless but worth it.
but what did you mean by lowes home depot?

[eurotiva]

Most stuff you have to make yourself because the aftermarket never existed for the festiva. Creativity is a must.

[19festiva90]

how did you get thatturboed 1.3 to run right? any tunning to the ecu?

[eurotiva]

Add a fuel pump and a 12:1 fmu (rising rate fuel presssure regulator) and pull 1 degree of timing per pound of boost.

[19festiva90]

nice. not bad for a 15$ paint job though huh?

[bobbyspider]

b8 swap huh do you need to swap the comp (thats probibly a stupid question) you said you didnt change the harness? I need more details i pm'd you I think I know what I want to do now I can get those motors even cheaper at the pick and pull. this is going to be awesome, I didnt know about the b8 swap I just got my cat back exaust and paint Im lowering it the week after next then Im focousing on performance. so Ill have lots of questions.

Anyone ever thought of using motorcycle pistons. I know the honda valkyrie has a 71mm bore but a 61mm stroke. Hell it even has a 9.8:1 compression ratio. Anyone think these would work?

[Futurefesty90]

$15? did you use latex house paint?

It's much easier/cheaper to bolt in another motor.

[paulwall1987]

not necessarily. but would they work? as long as they're the 71mm bore right? honda 650r use them as well so it is looking tempting.

What I'm saying is.......You can buy a whole donor car for $300-$500 so by the time you buy 4 bike pistons and then machine work you'd be way over that. I've thought this over many times. I've been a bike mechanic for the last 10 years,so trust me I've thought about it. I've also wondered about throttle bodies from a bike on a festiva. But again too much money involved.
