    One of these days I ought to try starting my Speck with a 12V7AH SLA just to see if it can be done.

    There's got to be a better thread for this... sorry.
    What about using capacitors as a battery source?


    Zero, 2014 ES Plus 5MT, written off but not forgotten.
    Zero II, 2014 SE, 5MT, climate She's HOME now!
    Shelby AKA "Cute", 2017 ES 5MT, A/C.

    Mirage owners look at the world differently than everyone else, but in a better way
    We're driving the Beetle of the 21st century, the greatest small car now available!

    You can be the first to let us all know how that works out.

    I'm not that adventurous with this car.

    You're referring to something like this?


    Not practical I think because of the hefty price tag.

    The NonStopTuning Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 Pulley Kit is designed for tuners looking to reduce weight and increase the throttle response of their engines.

    These OEM diameter pulleys will neither underdrive nor overdrive the associated accessories, yet lead to great throttle response, and improved horsepower and torque numbers.

    Each kit is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aircraft quality aluminum, and tested for tight machining and balance tolerances. Every NST pulley is hard anodized for exceptional durability and is available in a choice of colors.

    Shortly after Daox offered his 1st edition rear sway bar, I was reading about happy customers. I have one of those 1st edition rear sway bars on my Mirage. If I bought a second Mirage today, I would be ordering a rear sway bar tomorrow.

    This thread was started in June of 2018. $148 - $248 for a pulley kit. Where are the happy customers?

    That's the small economy car market here in North America. There's not enough sold to justify developing aftermarket performance parts, no matter how much a few enthusiasts call for it.

    And that's fine with me. I didn't buy my Mirage to go fast.
