Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

A buddy of mine bought one of these brand new. It was a really nice little car back then, and a blast to drive. Twenty years on, modded to death, and with, in your best Vin Diesel, "NAHHHSSSS!"? Not so much
OEM suspension is fine. Put the stock airbox back in and remove the nitrous kit. If you aren't springing for the turbo here you are probably too cheap to fill the bottle very often so maybe it didn't get to thrashed.
