so just wanted to get ur opinon. . .if you could only do one next year (or if you could only choose one to do at least for the first part of next year), which woudl you do. . .given your motivation is to perhaps take ur car to the track a few times for fun, but mainly for satisfaction of a nice project with ur car and etc. . .

1. Tokico d Spec shocks and perhaps camber arms (if needed), as well as springs OR perhaps Tein coilovers
2. Front headlight projector retrofit low and high beam
3. Front Wilwood 6piston BBK and proabbly just new pads for the rear oem brakes
4. Save my money, i don't need anything
5. something else. . .

thanksss

 

I would get the projectors retrofit.

 

^+1

 

that would be actually my top choice. . .but it is the most expensive mod out of the the three, unless i find a damn good deal which is really tough finding used 05/06 headlights. . .

 

The 05/06 headlights are very expensive and good luck on finding a pair there is a website that will do the retrofit install for you but you have to provide the headlight assembly yourself. I can't think of the name of it I have it at home under my favorites.

 

Lights shmights. Performance first.

If it ain't a power adder, then it needs to support performance.

Coilovers with camber kits as needed.

 

+2 on the projector retrofit. You might not test out a performance mod every time you drive, but you will use the projectors everytime you drive...at night. Plus people will stare.

 

Tis true. . .headlights are pricey but def high on bling factor. . .unfortunately it won't give me better track times . . .coilovers with camber kits is affordable and easy to get and is functional for performance. . .kinda off topic, i got the MREV for performance. . .hks muffler, ztube, and amsoil air filter for "sound", what other proven 'power' adder is out there to compliment the mrev? given i got a 05 6mt rev up engine. . .thanks for the input!

 

DIY the lights and get the BBK.

OK if I have to pick one it would be the lights.

 

i would go with suspension mods. Forget lights, its not as satisfying as a mod that you feel every time you drive your G. You only use lights at night and you cant even see them because you're in the car. just my 2 centz

 

I'm with Ted, headlights don't make the car perform any better...brakes or suspension, or save the money and apply it towards a FI setup later on. What real advantage do projector headlights give you, 10 maybe 20 extra feet of visibility? That's like 1/10th or 1/5th of a second at 70 mph.

Plus the more people that notice your car, the more likely you'll walk out of a movie theater/restaurant/night club and find that your headlights have been stripped. Maybe I'm just old-school, every time I look at buying something that other people can see, my first thoughts are 1. Will it really be effective, and 2. Will it increase the likelihood that some $hitbag will break the law to take it from me?

GL either way.

 

ttrank always gets lots compliments about his custom projector lights... more than anything

 

Suspension mods are FIRST and foremost on ANY car modding project of mine.

Anything else is secondary.

2nd would be wheels IMO

jon!

 

#1 ftw!

 

suspension ftw!
