Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?

keep those wheels, dont go stockos with hubcaps... not sure if i would personally bother fitting the ed xr head. just whack in a regrind cam instead. if you convert it to a manual, I would go 3.9 diff gears. apart from that, the plans are good.

yea, cam and springs. crow springs seem to be pretty crapola... Rollin and Lukey039 had them, and they were worse than standard. JMM seem to have some decent valve springs. I have a reasonably large cam in my car, and I still have standard valve springs. I will change them soon though.

white ED's is where its at (futura's especially)... dont let anyone else say any different. :D

are you also talking about XRs having a red strip around the car? Not too sure if it suits Futura's with the chrome grill and all.

Any non turbo NA 6 will be slow.

Spend the extra and get a BA or a V8 if you want more power.

It will be a better car in alot of ways to a ea-el.
Main thing i hate about AU's (apart from looks, although S2 and S3 XR's look good), is the boaty ride unless slammed, the lack of vision from A pillars, crappy interiors)
Apart from that they are newer and therefore usually more reliable then the good old eseries.

It wont run flat 14's.

Slow is anything over 13 seconds.

Anything over 14 seconds i lol at when the owner says its fast. Casper fast doesnt equal fast.
