Had to get a new resonator. Two new winter tires because, the owner before kept putting air in it when it had a small leak. When putting it to the floor and reaching 5000 rpm in first gear the exhaust smokes and stinks, but I guess its cause it burns oil?
Overall I really enjoy this car. I put a lot of work into it to make it look nice, it's a head turner now. It handles really good and brakes fast. Although it's not quite as fast acceleration I would like it to be its still a peppy little car. There's not much cargo room for back passengers. Clutch is a little noisy when pressed in.
It smokes because (generally speaking) your driving at WideOpenThrottle (WOT) and during WOT it could just be excess fuel being wasted so the car doesn't run LEAN while at that rpm. It's a good way to avoid damage to the motor. Now.. if its real smoke, then I disregard my little bit of information. But generally speaking, during WOT its excess fuel being forced into the motor to avoid it from running lean.
