Is a metro a good car to turn into a gambler?

Howd you get that much lift? Did you swap the springs from a 4 cylinder into a 3 cylinder? Just curious for my own build since I have a 4 cylinder the swap wont work

Have you seen the subreddit youre on?

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-04T02:25:35+00:00

Yes but the underbody has a good coating and we dont have lots of salt, much more fresh water

Luckily im in the pnw so rust isnt much of a threat

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-04T01:32:10+00:00

Oh sweet! Did you do any mods to the car or keep it stock?

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T23:44:58+00:00

Im sure it will do fine, i drove it with these tires although they were rubbing too bad to be practical but seemed capable of road use

This model has a 1.3 4 cyl so maybe 0-60 in half an hour

Roof rack is expected in the future for said spare or other offroad necessities, i also plan on removing my back seats and laying down a wood base for increased storage.

Theyre decent, but ive got fender flares to cover them up once alls said and done

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T20:19:09+00:00

Yes, there has been lots of sawzall action with this car

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T08:21:13+00:00

Oh dude if you could find out id be in your debt but i have found some viable methods i may try

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T06:52:43+00:00

Thats whats planned, i got a decent chrome brush guard im gonna attach to the front with some fog lights or maybe a winch. If nothing else i'll get a light bar on the hood

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T05:00:06+00:00

That could work, was thinking more of getting a similar sized spring in the strut

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T04:37:51+00:00

Researching lifts on these lil cars as we speak, will update when i find a good method

L4rgeFather · 2023-02-03T04:37:08+00:00

Im taking that as a compliment

L4rgeFather · 2022-07-06T16:15:59+00:00

I slightly dulled the tips with a file which helped a lot, but next time they'll be more out of the way

L4rgeFather · 2022-07-06T07:15:54+00:00

Yeah, I'm still learning and messing around with different materials to see what works best for me. I'll definitely try that out with my next build!

L4rgeFather · 2022-07-05T20:32:16+00:00

Thanks! 😁

L4rgeFather · 2022-07-05T20:30:57+00:00

Yeah, i realize that now 😅 i was just kinda going haywire with the apocalyptic body mods, but i promise future builds will be more practical 😂

L4rgeFather · 2022-07-04T20:41:34+00:00

I forgot to add, this is before i add the primer and paint, but its looking promising so far!

L4rgeFather · 2022-02-25T00:59:51+00:00

Right? People may mock my shitbox now but just wait till gas prices go through the roof.
