Alrighty, I have a bunch of money now for some mods...only I dont know which one(s) to go with. Here are my options:

1- real HID's

2- upgrade fuel pump and get gauges so I can run a +70 shot of nitrous

3- Eibach pro kit and Koni shocks + struts (1.5" drop)

4- underdrive pulley and straight pipe (test pipe for maxima guys)

5- cross drilled rotors and stillen front lip

6- window tints and flip out lcd w/ playstation

7- or there is the MEVI, but I cant afford the JWT ECU right now with it, would it do any good with a shot of nitrous

Those are basically my 6 options, what do you guys think, or what combo of several things still staying in the same relative price range?? I am so undecided on all of this ...a few grand more and just buy it all

 

I would go for a Y pipe, catback exhaust, and intake if you don't already have one. Then I'd go for the suspension.

 

Suspension

 

I vote for 4 or 6

 

Control, power, then style IMO

 

yeah definitely upgrade your suspension.

 

suspension - Tints - HID's

 

Y-Pipe is a must.....and the HIDs would be nice....

 

ok so I dont have to keep posting this, check my homepage for the mods I already have...but to save you all time here they are:
Performance
-Stillen hybrid intake
-Stillen muffler
-Matrix strut bar
-Budget Y and B pipes
-ASA JS5 rims
-Kumho ECSTA supra tires
-NOS dry kit
-Hayden tranny cooler
-NGK V power plugs: one step colder

Lighting
-Clear corners
-crystal hyperwhites all around
-fog lights
-Reverse Indiglo gauges
-neons under dash

Audio
-Pioneer head unit
-Pioneer and Sony speakers (soon to be Alpine type R's)

Others
-Shaved trunk
-stripping remove from door pillars
-custom grills
-Red calipers

 

do the y-pipe with the air intake first.

 

Those are the mods he already has.

 

With what you have already why wouldn't you do the suspension? It will feel like a completely different car as far as handling goes and don't you want to get rid of the 4x4 look?

As hdortez said Control, Power, then style.

 

suspension definately... suspension is first on my list..

 

What does getting rid of the piller stripping do? Does it make it louder inside?

 

um no it doesnt make it louder. I took off the black stripping on the outside of the door panel (the black tape between the 2 doors) if you have a black car you dont have any, but mine was all faded and looked gross. Now its good, same as the body.

 

I say suspension definitely.

 

get the springs and struts and dont forget the rear sway bar

 

My vote is window tints and 2

 

when you guys play GT2 what do you mod first?

usually it's suspension no?

 

I always mod the engine and exhaust first on granturismo, then get tires and suspension. anyways, today I got new speakers, infinity kappas and the windows are being tinted tomorrow- 20% rear and 35% front. The suspension will have to wait a little while, and no HID's- look hott but too much $$$ I but it looks like nitrous stuff and brakes for the immediate next.

 

5 spd conversion gear lol

 

Its all good whatever you decide... just remember " Power is nothing without control"... Just ask all those Vetts wrapped around polls out there.

 

actually we have a corvette and I think it handles quite well

 

Well said! A good suspension upgrade will definitely improve the handling to the point that you can safely drive the car faster before hitting its limits.

 

Firstly I had reference to the c4 and prior Vettes... I mean no disrespect to the vererable American muscle car. However The thing that seperated the Vette and World Class sports cars has always been control. All I'm saying is power keeps your butt to the back of your seat but control keeps your butt out of the hospital.

 

Go back to stock...

 

The VI will help considerably with nitrous, but I don't have any dynos to post yet (I'm waiting on my SAFC). Running nitrous you won't want a JWT ECU because of the timing advance.
-hype

 

I agree, get the VI, on an N/A car you can gain up to 50hp in your top end power, I could only imagine how much power it would add w/nitrous.

 

suspension, and a rear sway bar is a must

 

It is a C4, 1987

 

I'd go suspension and tints next...

after I'm done with clutch and brakes, next up for me is audio, suspension, THEN tints

 

I'd like to go that route...but I dont know much about the VI at the moment. I know ejj has one, but it caused him some problems and thats kind of keeping me away from it. But, where is a good place to get it from? and about how much will it cost and what other stuff is needed with it? Thanks for replying everyone.

My remotes arent working today, it just stopped. I think it may be the fuse blew somehow but I dont know. I took it in to get the windows done and they remotes didnt work when I got the car back, I dont know if they screwed with it, or if it was just coincidence. Any thoughts on waht it might be?
