I have $900 to spend on my car, its coming up summer so im not sure wat i should do...because i want to focus on one part of the car at a time such as (exterior, brakes, engine, suspension) If go all on exterior that would be it broke....but i could do suspension, brakes, and engine all at once. Im not doing any heavy mods like s/c or turbo just yet so no pulleys, gauges, lsd, flywheel/clutch needed, but any other suggestions would be good....

Here's my list to do:

Exterior-
-CF Hood (local shop $350)
-CF B-Pillars
-CF Eyelids
-CF Lip Spoiler OEM Style
-CF RS1 Front Lip

Suspension-
-Greddy Air Diversion Panel
-Greddy Front Strut Bar
-Greddy Rear Strut Bar
-Ingalls Torque Damper

Engine-
-Header
-Anti-fouler
-Ground Wire Kit

Brakes-
-S/S Brake Lines
-OEM sized Front/Rear Drilled/Slotted Rotors

 

I would do suspension, but not strut bars cause they really dont do anything. I would do either sway bars of springs.

or maybe cai, exhaust, or shift kit

 

Well this is wat i have already:
-Springs
-Short Shifter
-Cat-back
-CAI
*Headers include S-pipe

 

Rear sway bar
Ingalls stiffy

After that, I don't care. Those two are significant mods.

 

Strut bars made a much bigger difference in stiffness than my Tein S-Techs did.

 

Strut bars are big difference makers in cornering. Especially if you get both front and rear and install them together. I had both on my old 3000gt and they made a world of difference. The car won't behave nearly as heavily around corners.

Installing the rear on some cars can be a project requiring some patience though. (tight quarters) But well worth it IMO.

 

yea i installed my springs, very tight space to get to the bolts...

 

get the trd sport shock set.

 

I would go with headers, front strut bar and lip kit.

 

i would go with new tires or with front and rear sway bars, or BOTH.

Those will make the most noticeable differences in handling, do not waste your money on F&R strut bars until you work a little more on your suspension, or unless you acutally plan on racing the car HARD.

i always think that you should do suspension before performance.. otherwise youll be screwed when it comes down to put the power down.

 

This and some fairly sticky all-season tires are what I would get, going by what you have already.

 

wat about da SPINNERZ!

 

*smack* NO!



For the love of god, no plastic walmart spinner hubcaps please.

 

we dont have hubcaps... those wouldnt fit anyways... unless you have a spec

i would get window tint and an air diversion panel. cheap mods that look good

 

i have tint already and its a 2006 RS2, i like my wheels just getting new tires....

 

rear sway bar, then invest the rest in an roth IRA and watch it grow to $50,000 by the time you pull it out at 60

 

Rear sway bar, springs, then anything else sounds good to me. Header w/resonators & cf exteriors parts would definitely make it look hawt! What I did was saved and bought wheels and tires, then suspension, then looks. I can't do much in the power mods, as I have an auto, which I'm glad because that leaves more money for exterior and interior stuff.
