I didn't know festivas could be so peppy! I test drove one for a friend today and MAN! The thing had twice the 0-60 factor mine has... and the car was in TERRIBLE shape. The motor was a sludge ball and looking in the oil fill cap just revealed black sludge.. the clutch was gone and there were a ton of scary front end noises. I never realized... I've only ever driven my festiva. I thought i had my motor running nice... apparently not!

I have to admit.. this is really bugging me now... The guy couldn't get rid of that festiva for $300... yet for some reason the acceleration was way better than mine. I cant wait to get my B6 in now... even if it pulls at hard as that 260k sludge mine i will be impressed.89SX funtop! Fully loaded!
RIP 90LX

One reason it will probably be a long while till I do a swap......
I am pretty happy with the 1.3!
When I finally blow this one, then I think it will be the BPT swap, but don't hold your breath!Contact me for information about Festiva Madness!

why some and not others though? cause neither one of mine feel near as fast as my dads. i always thought it was because they were carbed, but vmax just said that he knew of carbed ones that fly.:???:89 L, hopefully returning from the dead soon with a little more power... :twisted:
