How far would you go, to make your car go fast? This is just a curiosity question for those modding their cars.

Well the first things I am doing to my Sentra in order
1) Rollcage (real one, not a 'dress' cage)
2) Kirkey Aluminum raceseat
3) Tein or JIC coilovers (haven't decided)
4) corner balance
Lap times should come down a fair bit right there.

For those who know me, I will only go as far and within the realms of Ghetto Concept Performance Trends technology and brainstorming ingenuity.

Financial constraints and technical ability are my boundaries. Then again, speed is not that of a high priority as I like to be seen cruising from slow to moderate speeds in my part of the hood. http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

Perhaps its not how fast do you want to go but how fast can you get there?

So maybe I should add, how fast your car can go around corners too. due to our lovely winding roads. lol.
We might need to go hick on our cars and lift them up and throw some masive V8 engine into the car and some big mudders, to get rid of the traffic. LOL.
Now theres an idea. Who wants to do a group buy on some big mudders and a 10 inch lift kit???? http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif

If I'muh gonna lift up my car, I'd do'er right with one of them there Rancho suspension kits - Yee HAW!!

But I've done just about everything I want to my engine. I have Intake, exhaust cams, underdrive crank pulley, downtube, cat back exhaust, and an intake. I would like to add a header and have my ECU played and tuned with so I can max out my mods. I'd like to upgrade the pistons once I can play with the computer.

I also need engine mounts to prevent my motor from bucking in protest of my harder launches.

I said that I would stop modding my ride - but in all honesty I think I should dump another $2000 into it. I also said no kits but shit..... kitted cars catch my eye. I'm screwed - better make say $4000.... bye bye to the engagement ring fund (he he he http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif )

Already have the lightweight rims, and good summer tires (Azenis)
Full suspension - in the works
KLZE swap (jspec 2.5L V6) - future
Twin turbos once I get bored with having just a V6 in the GT http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

I make sure to take everything one step at a time...it's important not to get mod that are TRENDY..cause you car will look 7 years old when it's 4 years...get it?

I try to add things that are time-less and will still be respected when i've gotten to the point where my cars got 200 000kms...My only question is if Gunmetal will ever not be cool?
