Late to the party... but here's what I'd do if I had 4 grand to upgrade my '95 ST.
Note: I've already got a short-ram intake, header, 2" straight-piped exhaust, front and rear strut bars, weight-reduction (incl. glassmat battery), and 16" wheels with Kumho AST's. 1. Megan lowering springs ($100+ $300 for new shocks and install) 2. Suspension Techniques front and rear sway bars ($220) 3. Four 215/50 R16 Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Spec ($500) 4. Piggyback ECU tuning ($250) 5. Engine rebuild + higher compression pistons ($1000-1200) Then I'd take the rest and and save it for when something else on my car decided to explode... - Tum This post has been edited by Tuminatuh: Jun 3, 2010 - 4:29 PM --------------------  |

Coilovers - 1000
Gt Four hood and bumper - 1000ish ? Slotted rotors - 2-400 Complete rebuild for a 5s to make it have basically 0 miles again - 8-1500. The rest would go to oil and other bits and pieces like wax and soap ext. Forgot about some spacers to maker the car a bit more flush and a camber kit of course.

-------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
