do you have springs or shocks?


If not I would suggest the TRD springs. PM Me For a link cuz it is hard to explain. And I would also suggest either Koni Yellows or KYB's.



EDIT: If you have that already. Get new interior speakers. Or a new CD Player.

I would change the filter on your dragon if you haven't already (k&n or apexi or something). Then get an underdrive pulley and an aerospeed header. You should still have some left for springs or a trd quickshifter if its a manual.

No offense taken, Put a good list together. Thanx to igotta5S-FEturbo I saved 50 bones. Here it is:

Aerospeed Crome headers: 199.95

Underdrive Pulley (CyberAuto): 177.65

K&N filter (CyberAuto): 46.10 (Might as well buy at that Price)

TRD lowering springs: 203.00

TOTAL:$626.70

Still have 163.30 left. Tell me what you think of the grocery list and if any one can find this stuff cheaper let me know.

That's almost enough to afford a TRD QuickShifter, or maybe you can get lucky and get one on eBay for around $110 shipped like I did. biggrin.gif

Heres the link TRDRacing and the instructions that igotta5S-FEturbo gave me:

"Cli90ck on trd parts at the top. Then on the drop down box on the left sroll down to either sport springs or lowering springs to select what you want. I think all 4 springs are like 203 bucks"

Its a great price.

:: wondering whats so special about TRD springs ::

aren't they just Eibach pro springs rebranded under the TRD name?

from looking at your ride, I would say your first priority should be a set of springs. your best bet is probably the Eibach Sportlines, since they lower 1.5" and retain stock-like ride. other than that, K&N, pulley, header if you can afford it.
