If you had 5,000$ and a stock FRS..
 

What would you spend that on and why?
Just a little fun. Wanting to know people's reasoning behind their spending and all, haha.

Track time, brake pads, tires.

I'd buy porsche stuff. Jacket, shoes, sunglasses.....

Then I'd park in front of a starbucks and tip the Barristas 100s until my evil plan worked.

HAHAHAHAHA. Very evil.

If balance remained on car, pay off balance.
If car completely paid off, invest half, spend rest on a tune/header/minor tidbits.

OFT + OFH = $1000. Smoother power delivery and slight bump in power and torque.

Better wheels and tires = $2000. Improved grip/performance.

RCE Tarmac 0 = $1600. Improved handling.

Various bushings = $400. Better feel.

-17x8 or 17x9 +35 light wheels
-good rubber
-Catless headers + your choice of CBE (prefer lighter than stock)
-OFT w/ stg2 tune

That's $3.5-4K; rest on fees, helmet, track time.

Add Michelin Super Sports--done. Take the remaining 4200 and drive out to Cali and run the entire PCH. Why are all the great roads so far away? :mad0259:

find cheap or used turbo/supercharger(2800-3500)
st coilovers(750)
Good(lightweight) wheels/tires used OR Good(sticky) tires for stock wheels(750-1450)

Makes for a darn fun, quick daily driver that can be used for occasional autox/trackday. Obviously nothing too crazy for track days, but if I was a super track junkie it would be bolt-ons, tune, suspension, wheels/tires...IF I was limited to 5k.

Go to the Philippines and spend money like a king.

I had $5k and this is what I spent it on:

SSR Type Cs and Michelin Pilot Super Sports: $1600
FT86SF header, Motiv front pipe/over pipe, Greddy SP Elite: $1700
4.10 to 4.56 final drive diff swap (includes tools, parts, and spare diff to build it): $1000
Drop in air filter and silicone intake: $140

drugs, hookers and a muffler delete track pipe w/ no tip.

Fixed:
drugs, hookers W/ just the tip, muffler delete

that order

just the tip though.
