Parts Upgrades...

["Armando Pereira" <armando_pereira@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>I just read this on John Van Vuren's site:
"When introduced, the media was quick to point out that this car would 
out-accelerate, out-handle, and out-brake a Porsche 944."

This will be mentioned to every chick that enters my car...

Thanks to everyone for the ideas on Engines...  next topic:  BRAKES and 
SUSPENSION!

Any particular brands you recommend?  Also,  Has anyone adapted disc brakes 
to the rear wheels?   I think I'll be going with Koni shocks and springs.  
I'm not sure about brakes.

I'll be opening it up a bit this weekend as I cruise over to Bath for a 
little sightseeing.  Let's see what the old 1.6'll do.

Thanks for all the great ideas,
Armando
