Turbo

 

only the best though..... ebay

 

Speaking of ebay parts, my buddy's eclipse blew the weld on his ebay intercooler.... just saying...

 

Still works and under 3k (if installs himself)

 

save money for a decent used vortech kit

 

I'd say 4.08 gear, LSD, intakes, ART pipes and tune. Might be a bit more if new but you can look around for deals.

 

4.08 is trq multiplier, it's a placebo to feeling it's faster you just shift more all its for is track specific and not nessecitating another shift at end of 1/4mile. I would go quaife/white line bushings and clutch and flywheel... If your a track guy, suspension and tires

 

Mutual fund - Save for Turbo or V8 Swap.

 

You could get a vortech tuner kit for not that much more, throw in a 255 fuel pump, SS box, and gtr injectors...

Or just get some good springs, r888's (really good tires are a complete game changer more than any other mod), exhaust, fluid/pads, plenum spacer, test pipes, and a mail in tune.

 

Here I go again....

Driving school.

Stop me....

Too late. I's too quick.

The ONE mod that transfers to every car you'll ever own. And make every car you'll ever own more fun. And when you do get a bigger budget, you'll be ready to handle 545WHP.

Besides it's fun to drive a bunch of newbies up Haleakala to see the sunrise in an SUV that has no business getting up there that fast. Heehee....ask me what I did on my vacation.

But seriously....

Exhaust, test pipes, and tune should put you @ 270whp & be plenty reliable for years.

 

LSD, 4.08 = Best mod under 3k = no tune = win.

 

bc coils: 1k

motordyne tdxv2: 1.7k

rest of your money pay a shop to install both and you'll be good to go.

 

Nitrous and tune!!!

 

BC coils just like most coilovers come with crap shocks that don't even adjust the way they say they do. The adjustments on most coils are only really useful to kind of somewhat match them on a shock dyno.

And motordyne is cool, but wicked over priced. Get test pipes and a single exhaust of some kind and a tune. Swift springs and bilstien shocks if you're carefull can cost you about 900$ and will out perform most coil options for dampening and spring combo. And if you want to go full race car you can rebuild the bilstiens

 

welI I don't adjust the dampening on my bc coils it's not necessary unless your tracking. they perform pretty good for the under 1k price tag. I should of forked out the extra $600 and got kw v1s tho.

 

I've heard gz with cheaper exhaust and I couldn't do it. had to be a nismo set up or motordyne. couldn't find a new nismo so I cut the check for the md

 

Tires!!!!!!

 

Clutch/flywheel, better slave cylinder and nitrous
