Anybody here cruising in a wagon???

Re: Re: Re: Anybody here cruising in a wagon???
Well, it's bone stock for now. I've had it for 2 1/2 years now, and bought it with 186k on it. The car is beginning to show it's age and milage, but my wife & i love the old beast.
Therefore, i'm looking at rebuilding the entire front end here soon, and using poly everywhere i can, in addition to some ST springs, as the stock springs are sagging somewhat. Then, in Apri, when the tax refund comes in, the engine comes out for a rebuild, with some mild head work done.
After the engine, it'll get a CAI, hopefully the 200SX T.B mod (my wife's not keen on HP, but likes the idea of better economy! ), and a nice, open exhaust.
unfortunately, where I live in TX, the best fuel we can get is 91 octane, so I won't be bumping my timing any...
I'm considering having the shop use dished pistons when they rebuild, in prep for a possible future turbo...
When the tranny needs it, I'll either rebuild it with a shift kit installed, or have a 3rd gen 5-sp installed in it.
Imagine, the ony 2nd gen wagon running a turbo AND a 5speed... i'm grinning ear to ear!
