Well, after years of heckling my buddy for driving an old metro and making fun of the cute size of the pistons when he rebuilt his motor, I finally broke down and snatched one up myself. Haha. I picked up a 95 metro hatch 1.0 w/ 5spd. After a good once over, I've since taken it on two weekend trips to NC (1000 miles round trip) without any issues. I loved the $100 gas bill. Less than half of what I'd been paying in the past! Besides minor cosmetic fixes, my current mods are: - Air filter diffuser, ducting and cover deleted - K&N filter - Passenger and rear seats deleted - Spare tire, jack and tools deleted - Driving techniques (constantly fine tuning) - Headlight rewire w/ relays - H4 housings w/ LED bulbs (now driving at night isn't a death wish!!) Have, but not installed: - Magnecor 8.5mm plug wires - Halo plugs Ordered: - Fuel flow meter Future: - Header - Exhaust - Heat exchanger - Either economy camshaft and modified head, or Economy head w/ 10.5 CR port/polish - +10* cam sprocket - Underdrive pulley - Low viscosity oils - Block heater It's been great learning from you guys already!
