Default Hmmmm....What to do first...

Well, I cant decide which MoD to do first...

I can either get a system

eD Subs and Amp for about $765 when I add in the Installation and Sub Boxes...

or

ADR Sokudo 10 rims which will be about $500 when I add in installation...


The reason im asking is because whatever I do...I will have to wait a while till my next MoD...


Thnx

Are those your only options? How about some suspension work? Or some performance stuff?

Depends on what'cha wanna do first, interior or exterior. If that's the system your happy with, go with that. If those aren't the rims you really want, don't get them and save up that $$$ for the ones you really want! You'll be happier that you did. Either way you choose should be alright.

^^^ I also agree with the eD system. You will get personal enjoyment from that.

Plus, ADR isnt the best in wheel quality IMO, so maybe if its not what you _REALLY_ want, you should wait.

To answer the reason of why i am not getting a performance MoD...

1. Lets just say my last car was SUPER slow so I am more than happy with the power I am at right now.

2. I just dont really race much...

As for the ADR rims

I really like them even if they arn't top of the line. Besides, I think I am getting an amazing deal.

Well ive never installed a system myself and wouldn't want to take the chance of doing it wrong... Is it that hard???

The amp plus the subs is only $525 if I could install it my self...Plus I have to get a box/boxes...

I totally agree. I just put a system in my tC for $200. I got a Pioneer Head unit and a 10" Pioneer Sub. I think $800 is abit too steep. With $800, you can get the boom and drop the car about 2" (get rid of the 4x4 look).

Installing yourself isn't hard in my opinion. It depends on how much free time you have.

If you have MT, change the shifter, clutch to stage 2 or higher, short shifter, flywheel, and buy that clutch throw shortener or something like that...

If your AT, well, get a stage1 turbo for Allah's sake!
