my awesome girlfriend gave me a "coupon for a free car part" up to 500 bucks for our anniversary. What should I spend it on? I can spare about 200 bucks myself, so if i really needed to i can go up to about 700 bucks. right now i have:

-injen short ram (soon to be converted into cai)
-trd sway
-trd exhaust

some stuff ive been wanting are:

-lowering springs, either h&r or trd
-trd short shifter ( i like the stock height)
-header and s pipe (unsure about potential rasp)
-oem front lip or full kit if i can afford it
-cf hood
-tint
-save up for a supercharger
-lightweight pulley
-save up for new paint job
-hids
-one of those in dash dvd touch screen mp3 player things
-rims
-powdercoat stock rims

thats all i can think of now. if you have any suggestions name them. Im leaning towards getting

springs and rims/powdercoat
springs and headers/downpipe
springs and short shifter.

Im unsure about h&r or trd springs though. let me know what you guys think. thanks

 

Springs($160 for TRD), tint($120) and HID's($130) then use the $90 left over for an alignment 2 weeks after you get the springs.

 

tints or lowering springs.

 

springs, or give the money to me

 

right on

 

tint and srpings......Paint the stock rims for 20 bucks for the mean time if you want to go that route.....

 

Tint, lowering springs if you are installing it your self and if not keep the rest for saving for a sway bar

 

What he said x100

the tC just looks sooo much better with a drop id choose htechs over trd but thats just me. lol

 

you can buy my MMW header and Greddy SP2 exhaust lol if you're interested - let me know so i will pm you the pics

 

dudeeeee.. you're alive! haven't heard from you for a damn long time.

if short shifter.. hmm.. doc i's are cheap and you'll still have plenty to spend on for other stuff

springs! wee.

 

first, buy my springs

and then a rear sway bar, injen cai, and maybe tint.

 

ok he has a trd sway. like stated, tints and springs would do the make you car change for the best

 

You can do a great cause if you Donated that 500 dollars to the MicE's childrens homeless shelter... With just 500 dollars a month you can feed MicE's children for only until a month and then there you would need to come up with another 500.. I would reconsidered of buying new things for your car if i were you.. "ahem' Donation"

 

Don't do header and S pipe. The rasp is a sure thing and it is horrible. There is a guy in my club that has the trd exhaust with header and s pipe and it is the worst sounding noise I've heard. And the s pipe and headers will only give ya high end power and rob ur low end torque which is what ya need off the line anyways. I would go with springs and hids or what carbon posted on the first reply.

 

Ok if you got 700 bux to play with then buy:

1: TRD Quick Shifter (240)
2: Lightweight Pulley (110)
3: Tint (120)
4: TRD Lowering Springs (160)
5: 4 QTS of Royal Purple and a TRD Oil Filter (40)
6: Take out at your Local MCDONALDS and a car wash when its all over (30)
7: Staring at your car for hours (PRICELESS)

Bout 700 bux, give or take a couple dollars here or there.
But you wont be dissapointed. TRUST ME..
GOOD LUCK BRO..

 

or a hooker and some blow.

 

for $700 you could build a portable meth lab in your car, then turn it into $7000. Then you could get your girlfriend something nice, thats what a REAL man would do.

easy peasy!

 

true that ^

 

Buy me a new painted bumper cover

HIDs + Lowering Springs should be under 500

~150 for springs
~150 for install
~150 for HIDs

about 450ish

 

I agree. Springs/Tint/Paint stock rims/short shifter!
