I could probably get away with it, and that would solve a lot of problems, But, being that I am a Liability Claims Rep/adjuster for the 3rd largest insurance company in the U.S., I can't make myself do it

Take out the silencer, paint the calipers, put an exhaust on, re-wire the fog lights/high beams, put some different brake pads on, install a sway bar. I dunno.

Install a 200 shot nitrous system? Make sure it's NOS too. "Make that 2 of the big bottles."

OK, it seems like you have all of your bases covered so far.

However, I have one suggestion....

Beat the piss out of it until you break something, then you can fix something

I'm on my third engine (Car has only 22,000 miles on it!) so I have done that enough already!

The problem with a car like mine is that if I beat the piss out of it, whatever breaks is gonna be REALLY expensive

<---- Phoenix. Not to bad

Plus, I vowed NEVER to play GT after I FINALLY got GT2 to where I wanted and the power went out during when the game was saving and I lost all my data!!! I was so pissed... I literally Haven't touched my play station since then. And that was like 2 years ago.

Imprezinator is in AZ (Tuscon I believe). You don't need to worry about it ever getting too cold to do anything out here.

[Edit: My bad, he's in Phoenix. Definitly never gets too cold to do anything.]
