Seeing pics of clean aqua and surf blue festies makes me sometimes wish I hadn't painted mine green! (it was originally surf blue)"Lane, I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years. I'm no dummy."

the wheels are from a 90's mitsu mirage.
i ended up taking them off because they were horrible, super heavy, rubbed, got super bad highway shakes to, bad fuel economy, and bad performance
so i got some new tires with some old wheels i had kicking around people either LUV it or H8 it... id love some input?
car now is better on gas, faster, corners better, and drives on the highway better, ive never been an advocate of bigger wheelage, all my cars have smaller wheels/tires then they originally had.
the plan is now to get my b6 into the car which is .20 over and fully rebulit, with my mtx trans which has a suzuki swift clutch with a super light festy flywheel, and phantom grip lsd
and later on this week bolt my turbo junk to it here are some pics:

today i took the 1.6 motor out of the race car and tomo im putting it into the teal car you guys see above, and switching it from auto to manual.. hopefully all the petals work out
special thanks to iceracerdude to helped me figure out the right injectors and ecu i need to have the car run right for the first time in 4 years
funny thing is as soon as it was running good it ran for 5 mins and drove once around the block before i took the motor out the car
(god i hate race cars)
