Opinions Please- What To Buy 4 My Car?

[Lornce]

^^ As above, i get a bonus this month (21st Jan) and i will have about £600 for some new mods!

I want to know what you would buy if you was in my position, and considering my car only has:

Blitz Induction Kit
Blitz Dump Valve
Back Box
15" 5Zigen's

So i was thinking maybe a

Autobahn fmic
HKS Actuator
Fuel cut Defenser
and maybe i could stretch to a Carbon Fibre Bonnet!

What do you think?

Don't forget that if you do get those mods mate and want to turn the boost up you'll need a fuel pressure regulator aswell.

and id go for a full cat back system with decat too.

I'll sell ya a Hybrid turbo, downpipe and HKS actuator for £420 plus will throw in my old stainless mani its cracked but if u can weld it then use it, I have all TD04 kit now.

May even have a WEPR fmic brand new for sale cheap, the kit came with it but i already have a blitz one.
Then ur lookin at tons of power but u would need fueling mods.

God loves a tryer!

Full turbo back system like Dan said is probably the best option. Could get a WEPR one for about £300-£350. Then you could get the HKS actuator to up the boost to around 10-11psi (£80-£90) and an autobahn FMIC for about £275 in the daveburwash (starletgtturbo.co.uk) sales section...

That would be litte over £600 all in, and would give a LOT of power, without affecting reliability while providing the perfect base for more mods (to keep it under £300 you could not get the actuator and buy that at a later date too)

or you could do this,fmic £200 2nd hand,actuator £50 2nd hand,fpr £50 2nd hand,fcd £50 2nd hand,exhaust £150-200 2nd hand,decat £50-80 2nd hand.

gonna save you a bomb lol....thats what ive done and ive saved loads and got some bargains

What's the use in getting a 2nd hand actuator!? It won't be good for anything anyway!
Actuators are only good as NEW - otherwise it starts loosing its tightness and it's useless (just like mine)! hehe

 

[spuddy]

Wouldn't agree, HKS is fully adjustable so tighen up the spring if its been weakened and 2nd hand could be only a few weeks old.

well a hks actuator will ALWAYS be stronger than the oem one,and my hks can hold 1 bar fine and i got it cheap

Coilovers and brakes maybe?

 

[Cornish-Glanza]

I'd get a set of coilovers. D2's brand new for 600ish.

I know the thought of an extra 20-30bhp is hard to resist but ideally you want it setting up on a rollingroad so thats another big bill straight away - plus the labour for fitting the bits unless you can do it all.

 

[spuddy]

Have u no suspension work done at all?

If thats the case then yea you need to sort out the handling, they're scary enuf when you have increased the stability never mind without hehe. Plus will improve the overal look of the car in my opinion.
