typeR

I'm really having a hard time lately....what step to make next...i want a cr that doesnt scream race or rice i guess an easy way to describe it would be like a 2 door M5 (if there is such-a-thing) or 55 AMG...i know it'll never be exactlly in that class...but that style im looking for...so how would you proceed????concidering the mods i have already...BTW go fast in a straight line seems to be my biggest priority right now...(anexiously awaiting MM,and MMII)and one last thing. at this time i have 1200$ to spend...

5 minute edit time sucks ass soopa




and one last thing. at this time i have 1200$ to spend...
here's some of my thoughts:

sways..i want them for the much improved handling...but they dont help speed..so i keep moving them down my list of wants..

Wheels:oh this hurts to even think about...a dream would be TE37's 17-8 or 18-8 high polished...so i would have a nice look and a very functional wheel. too much money for me

SSR competetion closer to my price range especially used like i missed out on ,,Kevin M sold his...about 1100$ 17-8 but not so

BBS RK's are a nice combo of luxury and sport...i dont like the painted silver finish...would have to be polished..

or i could just stay with 234/45 T1-S' on stocks...add sways MMI&II for about 1300$$$ i could swing that all opionions welcome...

Red Rider

First thing i'd do typeR is get the sways. Then use the extra for some Konis or Tokicos and maybe upgrade the rubber.

soopa

would you rather all our lil bitch ass postwhores talk shit and then edit it later on after everyone but you has seen it?

(dont say yes or ill smack you)


get the BeeBeeS

typeR

i didnt think of it like that...now while you're at it contribute to my thread please
i value your opinion..

i would do...pro kit...wait for the eibach sways...high perf tires...

ABlueCL-S

Hmm..I think it would be best to keep the cl-s for your daily driver and winter car, and get an 01 or 02 NSX. The $1200 will easily cover the insurance the first year, that is, with $1000 deductible on collision and comp..lol...

Check out http://www.extrudehone.com $600 for an intake manifold.

naw Amir and previously CLPower are the Kings.

I am going to step out of this post now before Soopa bans me again. Good day to you!

EDIT : Oh and my rate used to be up at around 15.4, 15.5 but then I slowed down last month. Oh well!

Sticky tires 1 (I still like my Toyo T1S tires)
Light weight wheels 2 (accel all over the place and low unsprung weight).

KCPreki11

I've heard good things about this but don't know how well it will work on an n/a car.

Woah who's this mike guy with the 3.5 litre upgrade???

BoostedM3

KCPreki11 - I'm planning on doing it to my IM, as they said 15-20% gains are not uncommon.

TypeR:- I'd get the sways, and some really nice 17" rubber...then i'd go with shocks...
light rims would be very beneficial, but they are costly...getting your head and intake honed would certainly give you some good power...

I wonder if someone will ever come forth with a dyno of an extrude home job... (There is someone out there that had it done, but...)

(There is always the question of just how much it will do for a particular setup. They [satisfied extrude-hone users] show pictures of some intakes with ragged and blind obstructions that flow MUCH better after an extrude hone job. Then there are cases where the gains are minimal due to "elegant" and/or simple factory designing...)
