  • Summer Breeze

    Just wondering if any of you are willing to share the plans for the up and coming sunny months

    I need to take it easy with me starting off to college in August but I have a couple ideas

    1) Take the billet off the front bumper and grill, change it to a carbon fiber grill and probably some black mesh for the bumper
    2) Depending on how funds are situated, either a carbon fiber hood, a new rear bumper(or valance), throw in a chip, or drop it! I need to find a decent price for a suspension set up though. Im leaning towards the suspension. If I were to just buy some neuspeed springs, what else would I have to change? Id probably go with a 60/40 kit.

      You can change out just springs, nothing else... but the bigger the drop with only springs, the more stress it puts on your shocks... basically reducing their life, but not a bad solution if you might upgrade them or sell the car down the road.

                1-short shift
                2-cat back exhaust
                3-wheel spacers.

                Depending and that could change too.

                    Chip
                    Exhaust system & DP
                    New font bumper or at least a respray

                    thats the list but im not sure how much will happen. Time and money will be short this year with a new house and a wedding rolling through

                    oh, and maybe a new key :(

                      Well I have a few things on the way, new exhaust, new front brakes, a smoked LED upper brake light, have to put my air scoop on too and maybe see about some new shoes

                      That should be it for the season but who knows

                          It won't "ride like garbage" on just springs. Its not that bad. Nearly like stock, bit more bouncy.

                            1) Coils
                            2) Front Euro bumper + gli lip, rear 20th lip, r32 skirts,
                            3) whatever else I can afford - maybe some new wheels if I can find what I want
