I'm not sure if your vx has a/c or power steering, but you can take off those belts to get back some of the power they take off your engine. Take off the intake resonator and make a cold air duct up to your airbox. Get a k&n drop in air filter. You can also advance your timing 2 degees (use a timing gun) and use 91 or 92 gas. Put in some new ngk's if your old plugs are well, old. Lighten up your car as much as possible. Run a search, i'm sure theres more info for ya.

Your VX will probably be alot faster if you pull the motor out and push the car yourself
