What's low mileage? congrats for joining the AE92 GTS club.

Did you put a filter on it yet?? The motor breathes better with a K&N style cone filter. Other than that, I would suggest a sports muffler, not a straight-thru muffler though.. they're too loud. Headers would be good too. There's not much support for the 4AGE so finding parts is not easy and its not cheap either.

Mileage is 134000 km. or 75000 miles. No rust on the under carriage or floor , very little on rr 1/4 .
Thanks for the ideas

Not much support for the 4AG? What rock have you been living under!? IMO I've seen plenty of support. Cams, headers, exausts, intakes, pully kits (4agze), turbo kits, etc. Then again maybe you meant not much support for the AE92 (wich there really isn't since its not as popular as its older sibling the AE86).
