make the car lighter, coilovers, strut braces, good tyres, decent brakes, buckets and harnesses and beat everything on cornering speeds. no point chasing power apart from a converion

I had the back seats out of my 1.2 8v, and was on shortened shocks and 60mm Nova springs, handled great.

Sold it to my mate, who sold it to another fella who swapped the engine for a 1.4 8v. Apparently he tried his best to blow it up before he took it out but he couldn't!
