ok guys this is the thing i just got a 1000 dollars to spend and have been looking at a few mods i could through at my car it already has bbk shorties to a bbk off road h pipe to flow master mufflers. now i'm just looking to see what i should get to really bring the beast out in it. for suspension or chassis flex mods i was thinking a strut tower brace, i also had the idea of cold air 70mm TB 70mm MAF, but i don't know what else what are your guys's opinion

Throw some 4/10's in the rear

firefly1241 · March 4th, 2007, 09:19 PM

i thought 3.73 were the way to go?

Who told you that? There is no "way to go". It depends on your setup and what you want to do with the car. If there was a way to go, everybody would run the same gear. This is why you see everything from 2:73-4:56 or lower...

personally, throw some 4:10s in there.

firefly1241 · March 4th, 2007, 09:30 PM

well ive heard alot of 3.73 whats so good about the 4.10 do they give you a better top end or more torque????

i want a more through out the spectrum gear ratio so i have power all through out thats y i thought the 3.73 would be good also when buying and putting in gears do they come with the speedo gear ?

Tony_90fox · March 4th, 2007, 09:38 PM

No they usually do not come with the speedo unless you find some special deal.

I am going with 4:30s if that tells you anything.

Stangzilla · March 4th, 2007, 09:41 PM

If you have an automatic I would go with the 4.10's.. If it is a manual I would do the 3.73's

NYHigH · March 4th, 2007, 10:21 PM

i heard arguments again and again with 3.73's and 4.10's.......i like 4.10's but i think people get the misconception of them not giving you enough top end when you put them in a car with a 3 speed tranny. I had them in with a t-5 and i can do about 60mph at 2000rpm...not to bad.

4.10's BABY WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

firefly1241 · March 4th, 2007, 10:25 PM

i can do 60 right now at 1500rpm i have a manual so would that help with any other mods in the future ?

NYHigH · March 4th, 2007, 10:29 PM

would what help? 4.10's...hell yea....they are a good Bang for the buck....you'll be ripping shit up all over when you get them.....just make sure you break them in after installation.......i forgot what it was.......something like drive for a few than let them cool for 30........and repeat a few times.......someone help but it should say in the directions.

95opal · March 4th, 2007, 10:30 PM

gears
subframes
lower control arms
intake

Should be around your price range if you shop around.

firefly1241 · March 5th, 2007, 09:55 PM

Tony_90fox · March 5th, 2007, 10:13 PM

Buy a Pro-M mass air..

firefly1241 · March 6th, 2007, 07:27 AM

any other good places i'm looking around the 150-180 dollar mark

Gen1sve · March 6th, 2007, 12:52 PM

eBay- My expirence Precesion turbo 74GTS - $510.00 - A smaller turbo may be even cheaper, better yet a pair of SVO or t-bird turbos, 42lb injectors, Mass air meter, air to air IC, fuel pump. Buy a case of beer for a buddy who can fab the rest of the turbo system. I know it's a stretch. I fab my own systems on the weekend so this is just my opinon on what to do with 1k. You can even run it as a hot car until you save for an intercooler and pick up a fmu instead of the Mass air meter and injectors. Turbos love stock gears too.
