Your killin me RSD! I used to drive one of the Geo Metro's. It was a man hood robing, ego sucking experience but the gas mileage was rediculous. Drove it until it threw a rod.

its actually the wifes. She just wouldn't give up the fuggin' thing. The miliage,low maintenance. A friend of mine practically gave it to me when he bought something new.He's about yer size Pac,so I dont know how he fit in the thing either. When I took my busa money and bought the wife her dream car for xmas , the little Swift has just sat in the shop.

Turbo baby!

how 'bout just a quik shot of NOS here an' there...

think that powerplant will take it...all 1000cc. hehehehe

a thousand cc's. thats 1 liter. that's 60 cu.


easier to understand...a 5.0 liter Mustang has a 302 cubic in. motor. so the little Swift/Geo motor is 5 times smaller.

hold on baby....
 
Rub....back in the late 80's you could get that car from the factory with a turbo. This was back when they called it a Sprint. I don't know how much power it made (probably not that much) but to drive it was a hoot! Stomp on the throttle in first......you could dang near feel the a-arms flexing...it was just funny! The little shiat didn't weigh anything, so it went like stink!

Seriously, my cousin had a Metro close to the same age as yours,...he drove that puppy into the ground! the only problem he ever had was a blown head gasket. Pretty solid little shiat-box.

Steering wheel would prolly cut the circulation to my thighs.


It'd be like driving a go-cart or something....
