- Very excited to share my new project car with you. I ended up with this one, but it's a leaky mess so I got a good price. Now I'm going to try and fix it for as cheap as possible.

YOU SHOULDVE GOTTEN THE JAZZ/FIT.... heres praying you guys k20 swap into a fit
Used to own a 2013 sport, turned it into a track car and was sponsored by rsrs japan
Theyre brilliant cars and great on track
Absolutely love the 5 door zc31s swift sport and it’s in the best colour. We only get them in 3 door the uk and they handle so well. I miss mine I had hks forced induction kit, hks jazma exhaust with 421 manifold. Coming fault with them is that the break actuator fails on them and you will have traction control light on. Company here in the uk clcalled ctc are swift specialists and you should check them up. You should be able to get monster sport parts for them which is the business and jdm parts 🔥👌👌 Marty need to buy a Mitsubishi colt version r
Wow you guys own a lot of cars my Nan would like, she also wanted to know when you are going to grow a pair?
I’ve turbo’d this exact model! I’ve sent you an email! Would love to share it with you boys!!!
Boys just wanna say thanks for all the years of content, it’s always a treat when you guys upload new videos!
never trust someone who does oil change wearing flip flops
@@MrOvlov02 mate that’s tradition!
Jandals are the only approved footwear too be worn whilst conducting an Oil change.
@@JonoGeeGee Agreed 💯
Honestly I wouldn’t trust a mechanic that doesn’t wear flip flops while working…
Since you two are both in music industry, you could do an episode of how to properly set up the EQ @7:10 and what modifications are good if you consider audio upgrades.
Yes do it please
I was just about to ask this but decided to check the comments if anyone else was thinking the same. Hope they do
Just upgraded some speakers and would also appreciate some mighty advice on configuring a good setup :)
Best/cheapest thing you can do is get a mate to drive your car down the highway with a mic attached to his face while you take measurements (frequency response), since you're just a hobbyist something cheap like a Dayton Audio iMM-6 will do just fine, after you get your measurements assuming the results aren't horrible you can just adjust your EQ to make iron out any major kinks in the frequency response to get it as flat as you can, if you don't like a completely flat FR (which you probably wont get anyway) you can start adjusting the EQ again, hopefully without going too crazy. You should look up a few videos on youtube on how to measure loudspeakers and how to EQ.
I have some maaad audio setup in a Toyota Crown I imported from Japan... it was EQ'd in Japan but I think it's lost the settings, since it spent 4 months on a boat and the battery died, so I would also love to know this!
I know the meme about scooping the mids but I'd rather be more precise 😂
Great little cars. I’ve owned 3. I currently daily a 2007 zc31s now.
Best mods you can do is a Cusco rear sway bar, decent coilovers (Cusco,tein,etc), and basic maintenance (coil packs can go bad over time, I’ve never had the issue). Don’t bother with intake unless it’s tryforce or Suzuki sport. And full exhaust will make them scream. And don’t worry about the permanent engine light P0420, it’s classic.
If you bought a MY08 - MY11, it’ll rev a bit higher, but there is slight differences between them like ESP. My 2007 doesn’t have traction control/ESP. The shifter assembly and linkage is different as well - I replaced mine with a brand new unit because it wouldn’t go into first.
And monster sport has the best stuff for these cars if you can get it here.
I had the coil issue 😂 I’ve got a Greddy intake and full exhaust done, would love to do the suspension mods. And Yup the engine light 😂👌🏻
Glad to see these are getting some wel deserved attention and good videos about them
What's the fc like ?
Assuming it’s deliberate, love the creative mating of being a back to basics cheap build combined with the more simple camera work - love it. The purity.
Finally the swifts are getting the love and attention they deserve
Holy shit these are literally one of my fav cars ever. Honestly think they are one of the best daily drivers you can ever get. So excited!
I totally fucking agree
i 2nd that (or 3rd i guess)
Sure, if you're a girl on p plates
Yo, Average, you seem like a big bad boy, huh? You got your driving license yet?
@@Average.1JZ.Enjoyer bruh a swift is a good car no matter what u are saying
The zc31s is bullet proof. I miss mine, great handling, especially in the wet. Well done for realising it's potential.
I now drive the zc33s SSS, great cars
I did the same thing. Zc33s Is faster, but the zc31s will be always in my heart
The water in the boot is common. Pull the tail lights, they can leak if they’re not lined up immaculately. Also there’s a vent behind the rear bumper that blocks up and water pools into them
Got the same car as a daily a few months back, finally got around to tackling the oil cooler O-ring the other weekend. You don't really have to disconnect the exhaust or the AC, or even coolant lines. The bottom bolt is easily accessible, the top one was a pain, had to undo it 1/4 turn at a time with a box wrench from between the exhaust but saved the hassle of disconnecting anything else. Would have been easier with a ratchet wrench. Then just dangled it on the coolant lines, cleaned everything and replaced the ring. No more marking its territory ✌️
It is the little things when working on it for the first time.
How did you get lower right bolt, it seems to be completely behing cat?
@@grdiamond9a619 There's only 2 bolts, I might have been wrong about the orientation but one is easily accessible, the other is really tight but I just squeezed in there between the cat with a box wrench and worked at it a quarter turn at a time. Not the most fun job, took me a good 20 minutes to just get that one bolt out but just didn't want to unbolt anything else.
@@Vass046 hmm, very weird, I have checked mine and I'm pretty sure my filter housing has 3 screws, in triangle, one on the right is impossible to get to without moving cat.
I also checked workshop manual and it has 3 screws there too. Maybe your version is little bit different, mine is 3 door EU from 2010. But thanks on help
@@grdiamond9a619 Yeah weird one, dunno man. Mine's a 2007 4-door, same shape as the one in the video. They might have changed something over the years although should still be the M16a engine. Pretty sure it was just the 2 bolts on it. Then again I only just did the same seal on my partner's Outback this weekend so that might be messing with my memory. Either way, I got it done without unbolting anything else so should still be possible with some finger yoga...
Having had each gen swift, they are awesome. You've chosen the best one for the track. Last gen the Zc33s is the tightest chassis and most balanced.
I've never been so excited for a MCM build. I got to drive a track prepared one from Rent4Ring at the Nurburgring and I've never had a more fun track experience. Please, please, please do a full build and poster for this.
They still limit revs and fine ya for going over it
Agreed. Swift Sports is criminally underrated. Even non-sports version has really good handling.
The price difference between the sport and the boring is pretty big tho. Remind me what extra ya get?
@@jonathanwright5550 depends what generation swift sport you get. But essentially a better gear ratio set, little more poke, some trims.
I own a modified swift track car now, can confirm the non sport also become excellent handling cars
@@RRR_Motorsports yeah if you're changing to coil overs and remaping there's probably no point in paying extra for the sport model
@@jonathanwright5550 mapping on the k14b won't yield 30kw from a tune to match the m16a.
But honestly not every fast honda is a type r
@@RRR_Motorsports didn't realize they were a different engine
Suzuki swifts are cool and close to my heart , as my first car was a swift gti back in the day. The thing was made out of recycled coke cans , weighed 790kg and revved to 9000. I’ve owned 3 since and my daughter has a swift sport for her first car , a really great choice Moog. This is probably my most exciting build on the show so far. I can’t wait 👍🇯🇵🇦🇺
It's about time a Swift Sport is on the channel. I've owned one for 13years and it was fun. Can't wait to see the mad mods.
Time to get swifty!
Also, don't have a Sport but have a 2005 swift & we just replaced the boot rubber to stop the leaking that you see in the boot. :)
This is going to be fun!
This is exactly why this show is amazing. Seeing Marty's reaction as soon as he saw the car the absolute excitement and then the enthusiasm as he went around looking at all the bits and pieces they could do. I have a Suzuki ignis 2020 I thought the Jimny would be as close as I got to seeing them modify a car like mine one step closer! Love it boyz
Absolutely love the fact you keep the cars relatable, really looking forward to this project 👍👍👍
Check the vents in the rear panel behind the bumper for your leak into the boot, the seals often fail especially if it’s been in a couple hits
YESSS this was my first car!! Such a fun little thing to drive, brings back so many memories. Looking forward to the build!
The wet patch in the trunk area is likely just the tire fix kit. These cans have an expiration date and if you leave them in there for long after that, they will start to leak. In the video it looks like the tire fix kit is actually fairly new, so probably the dealer noticed that it was expired and replaced it, but did not bother to clean up underneath. I have had that exact issue on my Honda Accord, it was all wet under the trunk floor but literally nowhere else inside the car, was just the leaking original tire fix that has been in there since 2008.
Do Tail lights leak?
Nice! I have the second gen one with 6 speeds, it's cheap, super reliable and pretty fun. I have resisted modding it so far, so I'm afraid this series will have me looking at parts online...
This shape Sport only came with 3 doors here interestingly. They are commonly used as track day cars exactly for the reasons you mentioned.
Also interesting, the newest shape Swift is actually lighter than this one, the Sport comes at under a ton with a 1.4 turbo that takes well to a remap!
I have to say that this car is in very good condition from below considering it's mileage and age. I usually see rusty ones. Even the exhaust is in very good condition. I also have a Swift Sport for daily and track use (32s gen) . I wish you many smiles on the track ! 😉
Moog, the moisture in the boot is definitely the hatch rubber seal. Had this in a few Swifts I've owned and it fixed the problem. They're about $200 from Suzuki.
The power to weight ratio on them is actually one of the best. Looking forward to seeing it transform 😊
by the time he strips it all down, it's going to be insanely light and nippy. i had a mk1 scirocco that without the interior weighed only about 1500 pounds. i had a 2.0 16v 9A in it from a B3 passat. it was an absolute rocketship because it weighed almost nothing. tiny cars with a happy engine are just the best fun
Im so impressed with how these guys keep making so much quality content. How do you guys find the time!! Been watching since modding moogs girlfriends car (his car)!
The Golf, right?
How do they find the time?! This is literally their day job lol. They're not squeezing these projects in after an 8-12 hour shift at a real job lol.
@@michaelallen2501 Well Moog does make music as a job and I think Marty does something else separate but this is definitely their 9 to 5
Super hyped for this one. Been eyeing Swifts for years, finally got into a position to buy a 2019 model with a dinky little turbo on it. I can hear some turbo noises, but it needs some mods to make it choochoo.
A great Marty alternative i think would be a Mitsubishi Colt CZT...look them up total little pocket rockets, unsure if you ever got them in AUSTRALIA 😊
We had the Ralliart. 1.5 turbo, 5 speed, FWD. Current market price around 14k. Next one down was the VRX. 1.5 NA, but has a CVT.
Had a 2 door CZT from new in 2012, which was the last year they sold it in the UK, great little car, PX'd it in 2019.
@@GreenCrim We also got the smart forfour BRABUS. Should be cheaper than the Colt if you can find one and I think might actually be spec'd better? Same chassis and drive line though. Also be interesting to see Suzuki vs. Suzuki with an Alto Works. 3cyl turbo manual in FWD or AWD. Then too new to be a nugget, but lot of potential in a Honda N-One RS. Pretty much the driveline from a S660 but on the other axle. Basically essential to mod a Kei car anyway since the power limits stay the same, but the weights increase year after year. I mean turbo and aspirated versions of the same motor have pretty much the same output stock due to the artificial limits.
I will absolutely die mad forever that we didn't get these in the USA because I would buy one immediately. It's so perfect. Happy for you.
Love this!MCM going back to its root, cheap and small but fun cars! Can't wait to see the finished product!
So glad you gave the little nugget a chance! You'll be surprised by what it can do and the extend mods can be done on it! Can't wait to see what you are doing! Check out some of the mods available at some of the major Japanese tuners! I used to drive a ZC11S!
from painting your brake calipers in your mothers driveway in the first video I seen of you guys to what you've become today is just amazing, so glad you've worked so farking hard to get where you are, you deserve every bit of help others give you :D can't wait to see what monster you make of this random swift XD seen lots of fast ones around my town in vic.
Finally getting to experience the feeling of the boys buying something we have in the shed feels pretty good!
I drive our swift through the Adelaide Hills daily to work and love how much of a gokart it is! Battle on a gokart track when they are both done?
Thanks M&M for a great story - this takes me back to the 70’s when I bought my first car for rallying - it was a Datsun 1200 coupe with vinyl roof lining and three pedals - it was so much simpler than today’s small cars but a lot of fun - in the Summer of ‘78 I filled the tank for $2.80 and drove from Melbourne to Adelaide on one tank and the coolant temp gauge never moved past half way as I passed the occasional Holden or Ford sedan/wagon with the bonnet up steaming - I’ve preferred Japanese ever since.
After researching a new car a few years back, that car came out very high up my list of 'Bang for your Buck'. I can't wait to see what madness you put into- and get out of- it.
Okay, I've had 2 glasses of whiskey, but I love you guys.
Your build/work vids are always mad motivating, and the tunes that go along with always get my hyped.
Just finished replacing the warped and glassed rotors that came with my MPS (purchased August lol) and the cracked, pitted and 5mm-remaining pads, and watching this reminded me that although I've always loved working on cars, your vids always help keep me hyped. 😁
Also I'm a little jealous how little underside rust yours have compared to here in the UK. 😅
5mm!? Good couple thousand miles left in them mate! 😂
@@irishwristwatch2487 You're not wrong mate! 😂 I got so used to engine braking cos braking from anything over 40mph would violently shake the steering wheel lmao
So excited with this build because I have the same car and has the same problems that I fix myself. Can’t wait to see the upgrades that you are going to install in this mad nugget!
Moog your edits from washing the car to brining it in the workshop onto the hoist was excellent. Perfect timing
Exactly why I love my daily of 5 years - 2003 Toyota Corolla hatchback manual. Cheap to run and maintain while being fun to drive spiritedly and still having plenty of practicality. Originally planned on only using it as a between car until my first rear wheel drive came along but a intense hail storm made it worth more to keep and modify. So now I'm brainstorming stuff to do, leaning towards a scrambler style - street car with some rough dirt road protections plus maybe a lift and snorkle so it can be used to explore more while camping on roadtrips.
Owning a swift myself i feel so honoured that this car finally deserves its recognition on this channel! Fun, zippy and a banana of a car!
Can never get tired of these guys!
Excellent purchase mate. I did a weekend on the Nordschliefe in 2009 with a 3 door swift sport with a mob called rent for ring, it was stripped out and caged with proper suspension and brakes and exhaust. Definitely the most fun iv ever had on 4 wheels, an absolute brilliant car with massive potential, very underrated.
I have been hoping for this for years!!! I have loved these nuggets so much and can not wait to see it ripping up a track!
Always awesome to watch you guys!
Well happy with this one. Been thinking of buying a Swift Sport for some time now for cheap and cheerful fun. Looking forward to see what you get up to!!!
I have one of these as my daily. Great little cars, so much fun to drive, and cheap on fuel. I can't wait to see what mods you do to this.
Yes! Back to that nugget life. Can't wait to see what you guys do to it. Cheers
Missed these old school vids. Awesome job thank you for the great content
This was great! The most fun I’ve ever see you guys had!
Great cars ,loved my ZC32s. Not fast by any means but you could throw them round corners and they would just stick. Looking forward to the mods.
Idk why but I'll be having the worst day and then I hear Moog and Marty calling cars nuggets over and over and I'll suddenly forget why I was upset. Excited for some more nugget action!
Loving it! Excited to see the progress on this cool lil nugget...
These kinds of videos just make me so happy! Good work boys!
Love the color! Always hear they are very fun cars. Wish we got them here. Maximum nugget purity! That EQ setting was 100% whack.
I absolutely love these little nuggets! I own a 5 speed '08 Yaris RS 2dr. and have been thrashing that little bubble car around for 14 years now. It has been modified with header, exhaust, intake, lowered, and new sway bars front and rear. With good tires this thing rocks in the corners and is quite quick for it's class. I love that you and Marty always have these great little competitions and it inspires getting out and having fun with nuggety little cars. Can't wait to see how you guys mod this little Suzuki Swift.
I can't speak for that gen but the gen after that of Yaris has really impressive handling and steering. For an otherwise cheap and crappy car, they steer and corner really well! My main gripe is the the 1.3 is underpowered (although notably healthy sounding) and the transmission and throttle modulation is HORRIBLE. I've driven like 5 of these, all Domino's company cars haha.
Thank you for picking this model, I've been waiting for this video for almost 9 years. I have the same generation of Swift Sport, but it is the European version in 3dr ( RS416). The seats issue is normal because of how they where engineered, the front bumper gap is from the plastic bracket which is broken from small crashes. Be on the lookup for the components made out of plastic, the years have been harsh on them, even in the motor bay. You could add a turbo to the engine, this will give you around 200hp, soft just add 10hp. The water in the spare wheel bay, is from the rubber gasket seal of the hatch or from the small vent in the back, beside the plastic trim. For tires, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 or Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 K120. Good luck!
Very excited for this..i have the same one , fun little car...common problems with these are : the seal that you changed , the abs pump , the catalytic converter and the bearings in the gearbox so be sure that you have changed your gearbox oil...have fun guys and cheers from Greece!
Definitely watching to see what they do with this since I have a Swift. Also wondering if they'll swap in the bigger 1.8 block from a Liana too.
Big block then add a turbo :)
Marty's arrival at super garage in the kei truck ❤ that was class , you know he drives that thing thinking he's in the fast & the furious 😂
Man I'm always so excited and hype for every new build, especially small nuggets! I reckon this lil Swift looks actually really good already. Loving the color and the tasteful lil mods that come I assume with the sport edition. MAAAAAD!
No way! I had one of these in red as my first car over here in the UK, can't wait to see what you guys do with it
I had one in red as well, loved it so much i now have the 18plate swift sport in the same yellow 😃 again over here in the uk
The ride was terrible, and the dashboard rattled, but it was properly good fun to drive
@@MrYAPP0 i dont know if it was because mine was the standard 1.3 but the ride was great dash did rattle though 🤣
The new swift sports are really fun though handles great and acceleration great
Had a zc11s and recently sold it and picked up a zc32s so happy with swifts and swift sports. Very fun nuggets.
Got the next gen sport turbo, amazing little car. It goes pretty hard...Power to weight makes it a heap of fun.
The next gen after this was still 1.6 na
But 6 speed box and more power.
The zc33s was turbo however
@RRR Oh, righto thought it was the next gen lol anyway, it's a 2021
@@motorfiendz ah nice
Drove one a year ago, I really liked it, just couldn't justify selling my current swift track car to do it
The first driving lessons that I bothered paying for were in a manual swift. Driving school was owned by a highway patrol cop who did it on the weekends, that school now has a fleet of swifts 15 years later. Great to see a new one on the road with their decals all over it and custom plates. Haha. He swears by swifts and won’t be convinced to add anything else into the fleet.
For anyone interested, the guy is Craig Prestage in Wagga Wagga NSW.
Swift is a really fun car. They are simple and easy to work on. I always wanted to do some stuff with my swift but never got the right information. Now I can learn from your knowledge, as always, and work on my car too. This will be a huge great series for me now I can also make my car a fun track car. Please do a video on tuning the car, or an aftermarket ECU.
Thank you for this and as always love the content and now especially this series, as it's the car that I also have I can relate even more.
hell yeah, this is exciting! tiny happy hatchbacks are simply the best fun! the engine sounds perky, body is so clean, cannot wait for the track day to happen because this is going to be a tiny yellow banana riot
Love these! My wife had an identical sports swift to this when we first got together. They're a mad car! Completely different "beast" compared to a standard swift, great buy! 👍
I'd have one in a heartbeat 👌 ... but at 6'4" and 150kg, they're a snug fit haha
Also, from memory, these have a different final drive ratio with LSD. Hence, they really rev at 100kmh ~3500rpm (I could be a little off here its been 10 years)
Nope 3500rpm at 100k is correct. Drives me nuts but I keep telling myself it’s not at 4000 which is halfway before the 8000rpm so it’s okay 😂 mine likes to sit at 120ks which is about 4000rpm which is even more annoying but hey if that’s the speed it wants to cruise at then okay! Always saying it needs a 6th gear
Stoked on this car, always wanted to see what they are about!
Glad you finally bought one.
Things you need for sure - poly bush everything!! engine mounts will make you shift better, steering rack and rear axle will totally change the feel
Stick with original size brakes, good pads and discs will be all you need, toghether with a removed interior for weight savings . mine is a 3dr with stripped interior and stock seats at 1045kg
Stick with 16 inch or 15 inch, unsprung weight will affect this nugget.
Add the lsd, geared not clutch plated, you will love it!!!
Redo the whole exhaust system and go with a single tip exhaust, you wil be sure to get 145 bhp or more out of it, thats 20 hp gains on a NA car
Remove that heat exchanger you guys fixed and go for a proper external oil cooler, you will need it.
Get a good intake filter system and be sure to get the heat out of the bonnet, heat soak is a b*tch
Don't go for a short shift kit, those things don't do anything good.
And you guys are so lucky, it's so clean underneath 👌🏻
I have the European 2 door variant of the sport and i absolutely love it. Few cars can keep up with it in the corners. It's pretty much a front wheel drive 86.
It´s really nice to see that after all those years, you two guys are still sticking together like that. It´s nothing to be taken for granted.
I´m curious what nugget Marty´s gonna pick up.
Probably another daihatsu 😂😂
Love this content. Keep it coming guys!
It will be interesting to see what Marty comes up with to battle it. How about a Renault Clio Sport?
At one point in time I wanted this to be my first car... Let's see what you do to it! Maybe it shall be yet !
A Suzuki swift was my first car 07 reg. It wasn't a sport but was still quite rev happy and fun to throw around. Though it had more than it's fair share of electrical gremlins. Honestly get one with as little shit on it as possible and you should be set
Excited for a new nugget! This is def a relatable lil car and im so excited for it. Such neat cars, wish we got these in the states!
one of the main reasons i love nuggets including my 2012 honda jazz is because when my friends with commy's and stuff talk to me they get actually mad and confused haha. then when its time to go and get fuel i dont have to take a bank loan out just to fill up my car every week :) nuggets will never die!
The Undisputed Champions of nugget racing strike again! Much love! LOVE THE CONTENT!
The most common oil leak is an O ring on the back of the Oil filter adapter that repositions the filter for FWD applications
I don't know how you guys find the time to film all these, let alone edit and post them. Always love seeing your content post! Yay for mad nuggets, I wish we had more of them in the USA.
Finally I see my car getting some recognition. You guys are gonna love it!
The Fake Taxi decal is mad cringe
Lmao that’s what makes the car
I genuinely can't tell if this is an april fools video or not
Finally the Underdog and Underrated Suzuki 🔥🔥🔥 thank you boys.
I had the same model swift as a company car for 6 years. It was an awesome and fun little car to drive. Look forward to seeing what you do with this.
i heard the best 4wd channel on youtube is giving me free merch 😳
Love it. Should be a fun build. Can't wait to see what's next
its great to see you guys excited for this. keen to see the nugs battle it out!
Love my ZC32S! Had you guys sign the Broadway mirror which is in it, back in 2017!
Nice metal track at the end.. great work if you guys produced it.
It's literally a slightly heavier and faster Mazda2/Demio. I had a built up NB Miata for a decade as a daily and now have a 2012 Mazda2 because it gives the fizz like a Miata, but I can actually carry things in it.
This type of car is criminally underrated and I cannot wait to watch the joy y'all get when modifying and driving this nugget around on the track. Well done, boys!
Hey Moog, greetings from Italy! I'm a proud owner of a Swift NZ (1.3 liter diesel manual) since 2015. I can guarantee you that water in the boot is not a common thing and yes: the wearing of the driver seat in that particular spot is common. It's a little agile nugget, if you are willing to turbo it i suggest you to wide up wheels and tires just a bit :)
Had a Swift as my first car, such a fun bucket to chuck around corners!
Love seeing the return of the nuggets and the car search process!
Awesome little car. Good job guys
Great little car. Had one for about 7.5 to 8 years. They are very underrated. Mine wasn't even a sport but lowered with wide 17" wheels that 72kw put a smile on my face on the right road. Was like a little go kart.
There was a modded one of these at a local car show and i had an EK VTIR civic, they switched the dyno to fwd and let us run, the tuned swift with an ecu, intake, exhaust (basically) track car with a roll cage made less than my stock 90's vtir civic with same engine capacity...such a testament to the old days! my civic made 116 to the wheels and the swift 110. Cannot wait to see this modded and see what the chasis can do!
Another great production... FYI, you can retrofit a spacer saver into them, but if I remember correctly its not worth the hassle or expense (I used to work for a suzuki dealership, in a parts dept)
1.6 Swift Sport are well respected warm hatches in my part of the world, I thought about getting one for my first car when I was starting out. I'd still love a go of one for a fun blast! Looking forward to seeing what you get up to with it
The Airfreshener Tip im definetly gonna test next week.
In the past month I purchased a 2007 Honda Fit Sport. 1.5 liter four cylinder with a 5 speed manual. It is so fun! Like a formula go cart. Plus the gas mileage is amazing.
I love that this has grown beyond imagining, but the ideas and the content are still balanced attainable and well done. Instead of things blowing up beyond what the average person can achieve.
Defiantly a underrated car...Ive had an RE4 for 4 years and its never let me down..can't wait to see what you guys do with.
