1995 Geo Metro LSi review from North America
"The greatest drift machine.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing...
General comments?
OK here is my input for the Metro. I have put in a engine that was made by VW. But it is the best engine that would work for this little car. The car is running at 295 hp. I've been trying to put more in it, but I have to make a new motor and customize the the german motor before I put it in part by part. But the good thing is that I can't wait till I get this car to 300 bhp.
All the parts are german, but made custom so it is a 4cyl in a 3cyl car. But I'm still not done yet. I've lowered it to 1.5 inches. Also got a size bigger in tires. I also put in a sway bar and a shorter shifter in. I also set the brake tighter on the Metro. I use the Metro as a drift racing car.
The other thing I did to the Metro was make the body a little wider and made the frame a little wider as well. So the car is starting to look like a golf. But other than that, I'm still pushing the limits of the drift edge. But the car does most of the driving.
