I'm a noob, so I dunno much about the engine, other than air filter/oil change/coolant flush/general tune up if you haven't already done so.
But... I've heard an Aspire brake swap will give you better performance. You'll have to upgrade to larger rims so you'll be getting for traction on the road aaand better stopping power. That's what I'm planning on doing eventually.1993 Festiva L - "Thor"
