It still uses old school tech probably. I wanna get a throttle chip to help it with power and fuel economy.

 

EDIT: for some reason, performance chips aren't allowed in California because of our rediculous emission laws.

 

Why don't you get one of those engine programmers (Trinity, Diablo are some brands I know of off-hand). You can tune your engine, then revert it to its stock tune when it's time for your emissions test. ;)

 

@Broseph- I like the Alero! :)

Lol sox I lived on the high desert. for a lil bit of my life. And as an ex street racer (plz no complaining, im not being a bragger)....you learn emissions laws fast and who can provide illegal smogs.

A few more pics. All pics of alero are before I got into a collision feb 2011.

Well at the moment I'm in this temp job I've had since the beginning of December. I sit in that warehouse at an abandoned papermill 10 miles out of Aberdeen and wait for lorries to turn up with bits of oil rig.

 

This past week I had 3 lorries the entire week. I spend a lot of time sitting about watching movies on a lap top, as I'm there on my own. The only other people on the massive site are a couple of security guards.

 

I actually have a fair few photos of the creepy abandoned buildings, including a few in thick fog.:ill:

but do you have winter tyres and do they help?

 

i dont see the need to buy winter tyres only to use em for a week a year

It's a pain in the ass really... 185 wide summer tires on it now. Put those on this morning.

185 doesn't seem like much, but it's quite wide for a Peugeot only weighing 850kg.

Can't make any turn, when i push the pedal to hard i spin, when i brake to hard it locks right away.

I actually use the handbrake so i can make a 90 degree turn :lol:
