what should i buy

njstang · May 15th, 2008, 11:48 AM

So my stimulus check or w.e came and I got 300 bucks to spend. What should I buy? I was thinking springs or dd bullitts or maybe a flux capacitor and blinker fluid.
Any opinions?

$300? Maybe put it towads a tuner, or a cheap CAI , or under drive pulleys.

Tuner is definitely my next mod.

billitts ftmfw!!! or a shifter

HMUSN · May 15th, 2008, 11:56 AM

flux capacitor and blinker fluid

HessiaN257 · May 15th, 2008, 01:02 PM

Springs

injected03stang · May 15th, 2008, 01:15 PM

i would go with high power blinker fluid or one of those twin satchel scrodum blades so you can push 50lbs of boost through your naws bottle...but anyway i would go with a tuner or cai ftw

Muffler bearings FTW!

They help the exhaust gas pass through the pipes more easily and increase the power to the motor.

Seriously, full length MM or Steeda subframe connectors will do wonders for tightening up the car.

Ok well the blinker fluid is on back order so that's no good lol. I already have a shifter and my birthday is in 3 weeks and I'm getting a jlt cai and mach1 lip. I was looking into the wheels but I thought I ought to lower it first so it doesn't look like a monster truck. If I get uca and lowers are the adjustable uppers really that much better? I drive the car daily and only go to the track maybe once a month. Would I be ok with some steeda solid uppers and lowers?

If you dont already have them, 4.10 gears!!!! or eibach sportlines with isolators

yes. do it right the first time and you will save money in the long run

njstang · May 15th, 2008, 06:04 PM

are they hard to adjust? is there a certain adjustment for the street vs when you go to the track?

put a V-tec in it....wicked horsepower dude. lol very tall engine coolant

njstang · May 16th, 2008, 11:24 AM

Bump....if I get the steeda sport springs but take out the isolators how much more drop will it give me? Is it safe? How's the ride quality without them?

fast eddie03 · May 16th, 2008, 11:48 AM

I ordered the eibach sportlines and I put polyurathane isolators in the rear upper and lower. In the front I used the factory upper isolator and didnt use the lower one.... It rides pretty good. The only problem I have is the damn rear sway bar tapping the exhaust pipe sometimes. I did it that way so I was sure the front was a little lower than the rear for a nice stance... and it looks good and rides awesome.

HMUSN · May 16th, 2008, 11:50 AM

I had steeda sports w/o iso's. see sig (fobra)for the drop.. handled just fine and was plenty safe

White99stang · May 16th, 2008, 12:01 PM
