3rd Mod suggestions

Hi All,

I picked up a 6mt a couple months ago. Since, I've:

1. Upgraded the clutch spring

2. Dropped on Swifts

I'm extremely happy with both mods. I'm looking for suggestions on my next mod: Coupe Wheels, FI Exhaust, R2C, Sways, Sticker? My budget is 1500.00 and I'll be looking to mod during the summer.

I'm not tracking the car but I do like to go out to the country for spirited drives and I do like modding as a hobby.

Suggestions? I'm open.

Thanks Seafoo!

I would go for an exhaust. I heard Fast intentions and pretty sweet.

sways for spirited drives, intake/exhaust are mostly cosmetic.

sways for sure. intake doesn't do much more than just for sound.

Might as well eat up the rest of your OEM tires first, so my vote goes for exhaust too, and if you have some extra cash left over sways aren't too much $$.

I'd say stick with handling mods and get the sways and coupe 19's this summer then next summer you can get exhaust, HFC/TP's, and an intake b/c they all compliment each other....

I say exhaust as well. $1500 doesn't get you a quality wheel/tire package. I have a set of maf tubes if you're interested in them.

Speaking from recent experience... Sways! Sways! OMG! Sways!

That is all.

With $1500 in hand, here are some ball-park figures that will keep you comfortably under budget:
$180 to $220 - FSTB
$550 to $650 - HFC or RHRC
$320 to $370 - Swaybars
Don't hold me to those numbers... top of my head. But the point here is this fits your 2013 budget, assuming DIY as you said.

Sway helped that much on the sedan? How about the end-links? The Z33 guys are known to break the end links with upgraded sway bars. LOL
