Let's see... stock tires on steel rims.

Turbo and NOS? Sounds like it is missing the necessary hydraulic jacks, the magic CAI, and super fuel modification that allows higher compression ratio & the effective use of SUPER PREMIUM GAS!

Don't get me wrong I love my wee car and think it's excellent, the single best purchase I've made while in the US but.. why turbo it? Seriously who's in that much of a hurry to get to work/school, beach, home, traffic ticket.. etc? Not like we're driving top performance vehicles here designed to stick tear up the roads? I can't see the need to turbo unless you want to go faster than that guy in the 12yr civic with his nosy exhaust at a red light lol

Why turbo or supercharge it? Why not? There are those of us few that want to get the most power out of something that no one says should be done. It's a challenge to do it. Yeah, if we wanted more power we could go get a 350Z or a 240sx. But, there's no challenge to that other than being able to make the payments. I'm an engineer and get paid to find ways to do things others say shouldn't or can't be done. That's why boost needs to be added...

Everyone may not get the point, which is fine by me. I don't get the point of most of the people on here, and again, that's OK. It's the differences within the community that make it interesting around here.

Turbo or Supercharger... YES PLEASE. Have one of each, also N2O. The Power is nice to have. Call it what you want, but I would much drive one than not.

But NOT in a Veasa... it's not a good chassis for this direction. There are 100's of better cars for these modifications.

Steed, some could say that about a pickup. Who would go all nutty over a pickup? The Lightning is sweet, but remember these little micros are all the rage in some countries and they do race them in Asian countries. Heck, I just watched a Top Gear episode where they raced minivans. Some platforms are bred for racing, and then some aren't. I think the micro scene needs a little Versa love.

True!
Even without the tuner/mod angle, I'm still surprised how many glances, stares and finger points I get in parking lots and stop lights!
Of course the mid-lifers like me are a little less discrete about it :cool:
More V, less soap-bar jellybean look-alikes!
