You could always lower it and spfi swap it. I've got a couple EJ18's laying around....so that's probably what I'd stick in it, if I were going to swap it...., as that would give it a 50% increase in HP and Torque ;D...and be stone cold reliable But as long as the 99k EA81 runs it'll stay in it. I did get the new axle in it tonight, and finished re-painting the wheels, so they don't look so bad (they don't look great, but are all white now ) Dug out an old Subaru AM/FM reciever, that I'll probably stick in it, so It'll at least have a radio in it....If i can figure out the wires for the radio in it.

Of course you could always come down and ride Carol's 150....it's a knock off of a Honda CRF100 with a bigger bore, and electric start...

But as long as the 99k EA81 runs it'll stay in it. it's gonna be there for a long ass time then, those don't make enough power to blow them selves up. i think one with awd and a 200hp ej251 franken build would be hella cool,

I won't be off roading it....so will probably keep it stock.....hopefully it will get better gas mileage that way BAH! My SW is mostly a parts shed ATM... Think of the HUGE winter snow you guys get... I mean last year I was truckin' through about 2-3' of snow... MPG be d**ned, I have this thing for the 4-6 months of winter.... plus you'll be a HUGE hit at meets.

Wow, thats almost as clean as my XT If there was some way for me to get one of my low toppers to you, you could have it for free. My bed was almost rust free until I took the top off for a few months. Now I have a buttload of work to do in the bed

I take offense to that...I am the queen of ghetto patch! ;D Really...I cleaned up the rust some with a wire brush, applied some "Rust Converter" then applied metal duct tape over it, and painted it ;D ;D...I figure it'll at least help keep water out
