the battery. You can get a cheap cleaning tool at the parts store.

Yep and Quaiffe diffs aren't cheap. Considering how few of us run them
in our FWD cars, it speaks volumes to where the money isn't (there are
of course always exceptions to this) The cheap solution is a
twin-engined car.
Hmm, maybe you could add a set of box flares like on the Daytona

There were essentially similar to the Neon ACR. Lightweight, limited
options, very little external differences from a standard Daytona (no
GFX, etc) Not sure if they were available with a T2 or not, but I know

Richard,
Most manufacturer's AWD systems aren't strong enough to handle drag
launches, especially when the car is producing more power than it did
stock. Quaiffe makes a 6-speed sequential AWD transaxle (for either
transverse or north/south mounting) but that's at least $20K and its

Solid beam wouldn't work. I'd just use a pair of steering arms that
bolted to the K-member or lower control arm. Same thing they did on the
Pontiac Fiero's and Fiat X-1/9's.
