I bought it completely stock except for a skip shift eliminator when I was 16 the first week of October 2003 for $6,000 with 79k miles. It dynoed 403/374 as it is on a dynojet. Despite everything that I have done to the car, it is still no where near fast enough for me haha. I've been to the track twice and my times suck because I'm still on 106k mile old stock shocks and I can't get traction if my life depended on it with my current tires... As soon as I earn the money to solve these problems I'll get back to the track...until then I just have a fun street car. Feel free to leave a comment and/or rate the car, thanks.
No power options or upgrades, it is a stripper car.
