ok so iam looking at what to do next on the car.
1 suspension
2 wheels
3 c/f hood/trunk
4 vb modd

thats what iam thinking about at the moment so all opions welcomed even if its a different modd i dont have listed

 

i'd do the suspension first.

 

If I were you, I'd get a Y-pipe. I dont know what you have done so far. If I were to choose from your list, I'd choose 1. Suspension.

Also keep in mind that you dont want to lower too much in Staten Island with all the potholes.

hows this suspension?

 

there is a nice write up/review about it somewhere

 

i vote suspension

 

what suspension would you guys go with thats a good one?

 

Suspension,wheels,DEK 00vi,cefiro headlights

 

no help on the suspension huh?

 

if u havn't checked already, this site will help.....
http://maxmods.dyndns.org/index.php?SuspensionSelection
make sure u read EVERYTHING in it, including other areas!!!

 

def do CF last, u dont want the CF goin on a stock lookin car, do the suspension then wheels.

what kinda performance do you have already, VB mod is more of a last thing, after u do all the basic stuff.

 

that ebay auction is ok, though I'd read up on maxmods.dyndns.org first, taught me everything I know about suspension. And yeah, from that list, I vote suspension.

 

Wheels and Suspension go hand in hand..

 

i have a pr cai and a full exhaust from headers back.

 

i want to do more performance but every ones sayin better to tires and rims this way it can handle it

 

Great I purchased mine from that guy and installed it about 4 weeks ago. Sits nice not too low and nice on turns.

 

def suspension, dont even think about getting wheels with out dropping your max first, because of the low profile tires the gap become huge with out a drop. so get the suspension! either get illuminas + spring or coilovers

 

on the suspension

 

i suppose it depends how much money you have. I'd go for the suspension first if money is not an issue.. save asthetics for later.

 

......

 

turbo first, thats always a plus!

lol jk suspension bro, youll love your car much better. i mean you already have the power of the vq, now you need to harness it

 

suspension is a good mod for performance, and alot of people fail to mention it. i noticed the performance increase a couple days into my set up

1)speed- although i didnt gain HP, the car did feel alot better while hard driving, one thing is that under a hard take off, the nose no longer shoots up, and the rear doesnt dip as bad as before, this feels sooooo amazing. before my front end would shoot to the sky lol. i can speed and take corners at a higher speed to and feel very confident and sure footed.

2)Braking- felt like night and day, before under a hard stop the rear would shoot to the sky and the front would dip hard, it still does now but ALOT LESS. its also a night and day feeling. with the front not dipping so hard, it seems to gives a better ballance between the braking.

3)Handling- well im sure you know it will give you better handling then before.

4)Looks- car looks alot sportier and kills that hideous wheel gap.


i say you do suspension, it has multiple benefits, if you want get a fstb. im thinking of getting the blehmco tie bar as well, right after i get the sway bar, then i think ill be all set lol.

good luck man

 

suspension always first

 

Suspension 1st.
Better looks and handling even on stock rims.

 

suspension first....i've had my s-tech/gr-2 combo for about 2 months and I love it. Best looking drop is witht he s-techs in my mind (minus coilovers)

 

Suspension first....that's what I did besides red clears and stuff like that

 

how low is the drop with s-tech?

 

whats a good suspension to get i want something low since are wheel gap is huge...any suggestions?

 

How much do you have to spend?
I agree about not doing the CF untill last. It wouldnt look right on a 4x4 max with stock wheels.
If I had to choose form that list you posted, id do the wheels and suspension no doubt.

 

iam workin with like 400-500$ at the moment so what are my options with that?

 

Suspension.

Thats about it.

 

If your tires are weak i'd suggest upgrading them first, sticky tires will show greater improment in handling if you dont go the suspension route rite away.

 

i think he meant his options for a drop with $400-500.

 

that full tokico setup will run you in that range. installation will bloat that a little but itll still be worth it. im currently looking at the coilover setups offered and if you look to spend a couple hundred more the ksports are in the dealer forum for sale now.

 

yes thats what i meant with 400 500 whats my options for a suspension,with a descent drop to take away the 4x4 look.

 

how much does it cost to install a suspension? whats cheap in nyC also?

 

i dunno what it cost to install i might just have my friend who did his car do mine also....there no such thing as cheap and nyc in the same sentence lol
