I just got my '91 Geo Metro on the road today and what a blast! My dad got the car from a friend as a spare car but its got a 5 speed in it so now I'm using to to learn stick. I took it on the highway (what an ordeal) and went to the mall for a photo shoot. I can't wait to drive around while my Z is getting its engine swapped, 38 city/45 highway!

lol...if only i could get someone to take a video of the Z doing a burnout, i tried launching the other day, and im still use to that phucked timing chain 3.1 with a 5-speed, so i launched the 3400 the same way i use to do the 3.1...and i couldn't feather it enough to grab, so theres a backroad over here with at least a 60ft. skid mark, and the other wheel stopped somewhere around 40ft.... fun times...sorry for the threadjack

change the 4 to a 5 and that's my plan.

I was driving around tonight in it and this VW something, probably a golf tried racing me. I guess the fart can and my excessive rev's while leaving from the red lights got his attention. I did however race my buddy's Ford Fairmont and got spanked, even with 3 lengths
