yeh agreed... anything over 4 and i will be satisfied. i think even 6 is a tad ambiguous. regardless of condition. just keen to get my hands on something driven by 4 wheels :D thanks for your help.

yeh enough of the arguments about what hes talking about, thats not answering his question... well.. mods... best mod i can advise is chipping your ecu. i have my AE101 chipped by a MONSTER custom and made a massive difference to accelleration and overall power (albeit with the fuel economy decline - still only sitting @ about 8-9L/100k) second, my 101 has a custom cold air intake, didnt make much power difference, but ended up with 50-80kms xtra per tank (of 40L). as for bling (i assume you mean body kits and spoilers and such?), it might pay to visit a wreckers or have a search for parts in newspapers or whatnot. other than that i dont have much knowledge on this. im not very keen on turbo kits or anything too outrageous like that, but if you want to visit a wreckers and pick up an supercharger from an MR2 around the early 90's vintage and as my friend has done (a vehicle body builder), you can go to the extreme of fitting that, no idea how, but it has been done to a few rollas i have heard of. But of course you have to then think about upgraded injectors, custom intake manifold and new belt system + even a dyno tune - then it starts getting up there in price. hope ive helpd a bit.

Hey all. my clutch is on the way out. my AE101 (97) has done 217000km and my clutch is just starting to slip. ive altered my driving style alot to deal with it (changes @ lower rpm) i have no idea of pricing or anything of new clutches + installation, but i have heard installation on FWDs is the killer, what can i expect? is around $1000 an average ballpark figure based on a fairly stock clutch? im looking to sell it in a few months, but the the re-sale value of a new clutch + the new radiator, new battery, cold air intake, and upgraded fuel pump that i already have installed would be significant. so for the resale value that i can get from the new clutch(+ other mods), is it worth me installing the new one? because its getting fairly bad of late. also keep in mind that i bought carol (my car's name) for 4,200 so obviously i would sell for more than that due to its immaculate condish. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
