Question

What should i get next???


Hey guys, I was wondering what should i do next or what would you do if you had about $300-350ish to spend. Thats what the wifey is letting me spend for christmas. Usually it would be more but i just spent a bunch getting my news heads,cams, longtubes, midpipe and pullies installed. So other than that i have cai, 75mm tb, intake pleneum and pi intake manifold. just got some new rims and tires and will be installing the new body kit when the car is out of the shop. So i was thinking along the lines of new headlights, some lowering springs, a spoiler, or anything else you guys can think of. It can be for any part of my ride. Suspension, engine, interior, body mods, anything. Let me know what you guys think should be next.

hey man when you are playing by yourself and are bored with the game, the achievements gave me something to try for. So that is why i like them because it gives you something to try for sometimes and will bring me back to a game.

It's pretty straight forward and easy. The only part I had a hard time with was removing the old bushings. I have since learned that a blowtorch works great for that.

As others have said, I agree with the LCA's. Maximum Motorsports is hard to beat when it comes to quality and reliability. UPR products seems to be more oriented towards drag racing, while the Maximum stuff is more geared towards street and race use. By race I mean road course racing.
