What can i do to make my car better?

Posted at: 2015-01-07 
I have had this car and your really close to the dreaded 100k mile mark, this is when the auto transmissions start giving issues like slipping in gears and also the engine has a tendency to blow head gaskets and intake gaskets leak.

They had many recalls for these during 2003 or so.

That 100K-130K mark is lucky if you go past it without major repairs.

There isnt any power adders for these, I have looked and it would have to be custom made and cost $5000+ for a supercharger kit to work, not to mention engine and tranny beefing up and rebuild too.

I would drive it till it dies or sell it towards buying a classic that you can add performance parts too and feel the power.

Good Luck :)

It's a waste of money. No offense but the Sunfire is not really a good car and the mods (or even the pain job alone) will exceed it's value. If you want something to modify, you could get a cheap Civic or Integra.

The car is not worth dumping money into. A decent paint job would cost way more than the car is worth.

No offense.... I would waste your money..... it's not that well made a car.. and there are not a lot of things you can do to it... save up and buy a car that has more aftermarket add-ons...

I have a 2000 pontiac sunfire, it has roughly 98k miles, I want to increase the performance as much as possible, I have a decent budget i'm willing to spend, but i want to know what i can do, as i don't know anything more than the basics. I would also love a price estimate. Im also thinking of a paint job. Prices on that as well please?
