[evilmonkeyMSP]

I bought a small bottle for $12 & it should last a while, depending on how much you run it.

thats the car I have except w/ the old motor. The new model has the better 2.5 motor

 

[mopiko]

Where do you guys usually run it at? Also what kind of maintenance do these things need?

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

I just do it in parking lots or where ever but you can find actual events in your area. otherwise maintenance is basic. Change the tires, keep it lubed up, clean it well, change the air filter.

[mopiko]

Oil change? Tire rotations? Engine Tune-up? Alignment? Brake pads? ....

...


Ok, some of those questions are smart-ass questions

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

LOL yeas to all except oil change. The oil is actually in the fuel.

 

[mopiko]

Can I put HIDs on them?

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

if you want....plenty of people will buy LED kits & wire them into the bodies...
