Re: Rrm turbo ?
But can you imagine a street Kizzy with 500whp that's just insane. That's super muscle car territory. With the right set up like that you can dust gt500s and vetts This is what I was responding to. Sure sounds like a boy racer you're describing there. 500 HP is going to cost you at least $20,000, a...

Re: Rrm turbo ?
It's interesting to know that the block and tranny can hold 520whp plus nos that's ridiculous yet rrm try's to make it sound like shit will fall apart above 300.

Re: How many where actually made?
Yeah, seal it up and store it in a climate controlled garage. 20 years from now you'll be able to get list price for it, $28,000 or so. Of course minimum wage jobs will be paying $30,000 a year by then, so that amount will be worth very little. Your grocery bill will be more than that for the year.

Re: How to Change: Spark Plugs
Spark plug gap is pretty much meaningless anymore. Used to be you could tune your engine a little bit by opening or closing the gap. Now, with the iridium/platinum plugs and the super high voltage ignition systems, as long as there is a gap there's nothing you can do to your ignition system which wi...

Re: should I purchase a car from a defunct brand in the U.S.
My expectation of the NEED for warranty, servicing, or parts is about 10% of what it would be had I bought a GM product.

Re: should I purchase a car from a defunct brand in the U.S.
The calibration of the cvt in the Kizashi is integral to the car's status as a driver's car. For me, a smooth and responsive transmission is more important than how quickly a car can accelerate to 60 mph from rest. I agree with this statement completely, but am bewildered as to why you would buy an...

Re: Window question
It can never hurt to silicone lube all the rubber seals twice a year. They'll seal better and stick less. Everything that opens has thick rubber seals around it.

Re: Cappuccino to be revived!
Dam, doesn't that just figure. They quit the US and THEN they decide to do what I've been waiting for for 20 years.
