    I heard the 4's where not the best on fuel, maybe you could improve on this? maybe LPG could fix that?

    Sweet mate, well if your not looking to improve your engine?

    Possible a new exhaust setup?

    Maybe you could get some sweet mags and pimp out the interior

    Get yourself some extractors, a nice interior, a decent sound system and upgrade the alternator if ya wanna put in a crazy sound system. (the standard ones are usually pretty weak, a vs one could suit quite well unless I'm mistaken) plus you could also upgrade the engine, 202's are going pretty damn cheap second hand and can be upgraded much easier (yella terra head, roller rockers, cam, extractors, sports zorst etc) don't know how easy it is to switch though.

    You could also put in some speed holes like in the simpsons, they made my car like a ROCKET!

    lol, upgrade the altenator bracket to a steel one, the alloy ones tend to break ALOT.
