yeah all you did was remove the resonator. thats the first step to increasing the engines airflow. You did the exact same thing i did when i had my lanos. bought the K&N filter, which is a good product, but if you want even better sound and an actual improvement in power, i recommend putting a cold ...

well since my car still has a warranty, engine mods are not really an option to me now. so making my car "fast" is not a huge priority to me. i understand that the dynamics of this car make it a good platform for creating a road hugging machine. dont get me wrong, i love the look of larger wheels, b...

ok heres a better selection: Konig Theory 15X6.5 4-100/114.40SM
with Hankook Ventus. total $700. i actually like the smaller wheels now that i think about it, for reasons including fitment, weight, looks also. Im aiming for the look of the Blue Lanos in the gallery.

i forgot to mention i have a hatchback, if that makes a difference. The rim size is 17X7 4-100/114. 42CA so +42 is the offset right?

New 6.5 in the way of window rollers....damn

yeah i was all happy about my new 6.5s until i tried to roll up the windows...d'oh! the rollers hit the speakers frame. :oops: i have an 02 Lanos. i have come up with a solution: Cut a section out of the handles so that they are shorter. then somehow reconnet them, but how?
