Ok, I'll admit it. I am a noob.
First, while I have a rice cooker (yes I will attach a pic) I don't want a rice burner.
Second, I am quite happy with the stock 103hp, once the car warms up.
Third, I have a Auto, can't drive a stick, probably never will.
Fourth, I have MANY high speed (think 60mhp) tight turns that I want to take without the feeling of losing contole.

That being said.
I need advice for some nice addons that will give me a liitle nicer ride,
WHILE not costing a lot of cash and ____ing off my wife.
Also, I like DIY, but I am not very Machanicly inclined.

 

definitely springs, they will help you turn (why you doing turns at 60mph though)

If you want a really nice ride, don't go with the trd springs. I like them, only about a 1 inch drop, but they are really stiff. There is a great how to on this site about installing springs.

 

hmm thats tough..... ____ing of the wife will be easy

and why do you need to take sharp turns?

gotta do # 2 quick?

 

I would suggest a strut brace, and rear sway bar.

I am just running stock but on 17" wheels and the car handles great! The strut bar is down the road for me...

BTW, glad to see you posting!

 

So far, everyone I have talked to have said swapping springs kills the ride....

 

Well, the reason I am turing at 60 MPH is because the is the turn PA rt 30 bypass in East Whitlan takes to adjust to merge on to 202 North. I take this road every day into work. And when I say turn I mean 90 degrees to the left and 45 degrees up over 50 feet.

 

if nothing else, that turn is a good excuse to the wife to add a few things...springs, strut bar, better shocks. And of course then you have to get bigger wheels because that helps with the turning too...oh and a good stereo, because that will make sure you are awake when you are taking those turns...and the list goes on and on.

Just keep the necessities...lol

 

trd rear frame brace might as well throw in the gt spec front frame brace as well
