Re: THIS IS THE BOMB! (Enthusiast)

the driver of that car's happy, and after he did all that to the car, he's spent thousands less than a stock GTi. Hell, thousands less than a Golf.
Good for him. I have an 8v automatic. It's not overboard, but it looks a lot faster than it really is. Thing is, I know what I'm missing.
What was my point? Oh yeah. Rice is in the eye of the beholder.
No, that wasn't it...um.....
I like what he did with the GS X http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

I wish what you say was true. Unfortunately we have an abundance of these cheap-ass cars north of your border.

Check out the angle of the rear wing, it's not set up for top speed, it's set up for massive downforce to handle the corners!

You know, Kia makes a racing version of the Specta. It's called the Shuma, and has it's own one marque racing series in Korea.

ALL those cars are called Shuma in Europe, all the way from the grandma model to the top-of-the-line grocery getter

Re: THIS IS THE BOMB! (Euro Flavor)

Hmmm...

Kia was offering several sets of modifications through Jackson Racing and Eibach to beef up the engine output and handling of the Spectra. Coincidentally, Jackson Racing was also seperately offering a supercharger kit for the car to bring the total output to around 176 hp.
It won't beat that chipped 1.8T, but it should be quick enough to beat a stock model. And even with the full set of modifications, it'll still be cheaper than the 1.8T.

At 2560lbs, it will be faster than a chipped 1.8T

The plate frame says "World Car Madza". That dealer is here in San Antonio. Maybe I'll see it and laugh at it in person
