This is my frist car paid $5500 for it from a dealer as is and spent a bit fixing it up. I absolutely love my car as it is an individual plus will beat most un modified 2 litres on the drag. the best thing about it is that its bark is way worse than its bite. The exhaust system makes such a difference to the sound that this thing puts out. |

Pretty respectable performance for the work done, nice ride
no doubt with better traction you wold be able to get lower in the 8's, you can try some lower progressive springs with stiffer ones in the rear or opt for some 205/215's at the front, either should see an end to your traction prob's at a relatively low price |
