Festiva!!!

[jcs006]

Me and my buds just bought a junker Ford Festiva. Thats right 1.3 liters with a whopping 63 horse. HAHA!! were gonna rice it out and go offroad but we gotta get the clutch rebuilt first. Wont be long though before the pimptiva will be on the road. [img]graemlins/banana.gif[/img]

edit: Oh and were also considering making our own supercharger out of a leafblower and strappin it on. While it will probably fail miserably, itll be fun. Any tips/suggestions?

I had one of those in Abilene. Changed the clutch disk myself. You can actually curl the whole tranny w/one arm [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

What you need to do is break out the sawz-all & give yourself a convertable. also, if you take off the hatch catch from the rear of the car, a full size washer or dryer can fit back there w/the back seat folded down.

edit: I had the mighty 4 banger version, ws that the 1.8 version?

[jcs006]

All we found was the 1.3 liter 4 banger, nothin else. So i dunno. Its great all the things were gonna be able to do with it.

You are living out one of the things I want to do on my freetime. Have fun and post lots of pictures!!!!!

For the exterior treatment, here's what I was gonna do: Get 3 of those horsies from a mustang, break off the rear legs & position them on each fender & rear so that the front legs are even w/the nubs of the rear legs. Then get the MUSTANG letters & break off the NG, and replace w/RD. So you end up w/a cripple horse & MUSTARD for every one to see.

Put a fart can or open headers bunch of Type R stickers then find a vette, SS, viper, etc. anything bigger and alot faster and piss them off by revving the hell out of that thing will be hilarious to see a midget car doing that, how about some long *** burnouts just anything to get a long laugh about.

[jcs006]

Yeah im definately gonna put some dumbass decals, like nos, type r, etc. Long burnouts are on the way, and straight headrs are taken care of. Its loud as hell too. Ill put pics up on cardomain after we get it fixed. Were gettin Fstiva Team Racin Shirts too!!!

[FloydSummerOf68]

Wow...this sounds amazing. Heh and my buddy acctually knew some dumbass down here that tried putting a leafblower and using it as a supercharger...
I was laughing to hard to ask what came of it

[massivefirebird]

Hey, wasn't there a guy on cardomain who claimed 200-something horsepower in a festiva??? :D

You could go drifting... um, is it possible to drift in one???

get a can of starter fluid and run a tube from the cab to the throttle body (or wherever the air comes into the engine on that piece), and put a can of starter fluid in the cab. Then when you want an extra boost from the happy juice, just hold down the cap and hold on to your wheel, cause you just got a good 10HP boost!

EDIT: I do NOT know if this actually works, i just thought of it. I am talking out of my a$$, but who knows, it may actually work.

maybe some godawful flames with some fruity spray paint color...

then find a vette, SS, viper, etc. anything bigger and alot faster

...everything is bigger and faster

[jcs006]

...everything is bigger and faster

[img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] yeah everything is...

anyway, well get the tranny fixed by next week. Were gonna paint silver flames on it and deck everything else out with those gay little skulls you find at O'Reilly's. This car is gonna be awesome though
