What Would You Do With 10 Grand ?
 
Hey all! Recently parted with my Ralliart and have some extra modding cash to play with for Christmas :thumbsup:

I'd like to see and hear your personal thoughts or recommendations for mods if it were your FR-S/BRZ

I have a few mods in mind, but have not settled on any particular upgrade or brand at the moment. Vendors need not apply - Looking for end user opinions for the time being.

Some of the things I'm concidering and have yet to upgrade are...

Updated!

. Wheels/Rubber - Got WORKS 18" Emotion XD9's in Bronze & Hankook Ventus V12 EVO
. Coilovers - Coming Soon! Fortune Auto 510 Series Coilover 4th Gen w/Swift Spring and Roller Bearing Upgrades
. Turbo or Supercharger ?
. Bodykit ?
. Other etc.

Thanks for your ideas and recommendations! :thumbup:


Current Mods: I already have Tune, Header back exhaust & intake

Street Use Only! :burnrubber:

$10,000? That's almost enough for the TRD brake kit! :lol:

Edit: But honestly, I'm pretty rice in that I don't all that much about improving performance. I'll probably get a body kit, some nice wheels and rims, and drop the car on some nice coilovers. Although Canadian winters aren't that friendly for low cars.

LOL yeah I bet! I realize 10K is not alot of cash when looking at particular mods. I was more or less looking people's input if it were their cash and what they would upgrade first :thumbsup:

I hear ya on the Canadian winters. Mine is parked for winter and always will be, so not an issue

Buy 2 Innovate supercharger kits, ya know because i need one too.
In all reality i would put half of it back and get a nice set of wheels and tires, GC Street suspension and wait on FI reviews from members, not tuning shops.

What are your plans for the car? Show? Track? DD?
I think once you decide what you want to use the car for, it'll be easier to make decisions on what will be most useful for you.
