Heh, thats' true, but hey, she might break the stereotype and turn up at a meet with a 3SGTE FXGT.. :wink:

My suggestion, if you want to drive fast, sell it and get something turbo'd, maybe a Skyline or VR4 or WRX or something, because you'd spend twice as much making it go as well as any of those would be to buy in the first place.

Buuuut if you love it too much, I'd just either stick some dirty big cams in it, drop the head to bump up compression, do intake and exhaust, maybe lighten the flywheel, you'd have a reasonably quick wee machine, or on the other hand if you wanna be "psssshcool" like the Evo pilot next door, be a sheep and 4AGTE it..
