Ive got an old Pope thats been running for the last 8 years and Id say you will notice the increase in power but its not substantional.
Mine keeps beer with crystals of ice in it but not frozen ,mmmm
Weve also had an anti freeze mat in the freezer section of late and it doesnt ice up any more so less draining.

I can remember when the first model Celica's came out as well as the 180B SSS coupe and of course the Datsun 240Z, and I would love to have any one of these three sharing shed space with my other toys :wink: Apart from car shows whens the last time you passed one on the street?
