Personal opinion time here.

Keeping in mind that I'm paying for college, what do you recommend I add next?

I have yet to find a club or track, so I just do stoplight racing. Therefore, nos/supercharge is impractical and too expensive.

Appreciate comments of my current ride -- honest is fine, freakin' rude is not.

Thanx!

 

suspension.

 

New car.

And, yeah, suspension. Good springs, shocks, and tires.

 

hmm...nice start (honestly)...did you choose all the mods yourself?

lower it about 1.5"-2" with springs, put your 18's on it.

then you can do a couple cheap mods like some denso iridium spark plugs (IK16's), and then go for some pulleys.

honestly, put your money back to the college fund. it's more important. hope the suggestions have been of some help. some pics of the car would help fuel some more suggestions...

 

h22 for meeeee

 

Thanks! I just bought the car in April and it had the intake, exhaust and wires already in. Saved me a lot of money and work, cuz that's what I was going to start with. Whole thing only cost $3000 (150,000 miles on -- I've added 5000)

I didn't ask the guy about plugs, but I'm assuming if he did the wires he probably did those as well. Pulleys were the next thing I was going to buy on my budget -- if they'd be worth it.

Lowering would be the sweetest... (apparently that's a common thought) Cost is key.

Wish I had pics, but I don't. Little behind in the technology here -- no digital cam. I'll see what I can do, though.

Thanks for the help (and positive opinion!)

 

Any suspension tips? Brands, etc?

 

Suspension! H&R springs, or Eibach... or Skunk2 Coil-overs. Quality shocks, Koni!

 

A set of Potenza S-03's will make as much difference as springs or shocks as well. All 3 would make it handle like it's on rails.

 

lower the bish, and paint the moldings.
