Finally got my damn wheels on the Cavalier....took long enough. Can't figure out how to get a decent picture up-loaded though.

upload the pictures to such places like webshots, picturetrail, cardomain.

Then come here and post them, by pasting the link from the pictures.

Or pasting the link in the thread, highlighting it and clicking IMAGE on the buttons above where you type.

Well...there are a few body kits for the baretta...very '80's...and i think there are a few minor mods you can get for the engines (probably just the Z34 edition) but everything else you'd have to fabricate. Bummer

I'm leaving my wifes car alone. there is nothing that can be done to a Toyota 4Runner that's worth doing. though i would like to find a way to make the hood scoup functional.

I like the second one the Best thanks for the links.
I was going to buy a Junk Yard Head and port it and polish it.
Then look for a Header and Fab an exhaust.

Then work on a throttle body setup later.

I have a Pod filter on there now and the fuel milage went from 26MPG to over 30 just from the filter.
The best the wife ever got with it was 35MPG but that was only once.

hmmmm...is that a chevy thing or just a berretta thing? (the POD that is) If you don't mind me asking...what'd that run you? I'd be very interested in higher MPG given this is my daily comuter...i put about 350 miles a week on it.

I just wanted to install it my self.
I used old parts and a Filter I had laying around.

I kept the stock Pipe on there and cut a small piece of pipe and installed it between the filter and the stock hose.

It sounds more like an Import but the Gas milage makes up for it.
