what to spend my monies on?
 
yeah, I know, stupid thread. But, I have $130 to spend, and I dunno what to get. solid diff mount/mazdacmp engine mount, 1.8L breaks, save it for suspention... I dunno..! Need ideas!

Bryce 03-07-2008 08:49 PM

I seriously doubt he'd be pushing 13 psi without an I/C or WI. ;)

bryantaylor 03-07-2008 08:50 PM

cardriverx 03-07-2008 08:54 PM

In the same boat here. But seriously, do you wanna wait 3 days for it?

kotomile 03-07-2008 08:56 PM

a new keyboard?

rotaryjunky 03-07-2008 09:15 PM

Radiator? At least you get a lot of metal/weight per dollar. Or three style bars.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Like that really stops anyone? :p Don't start drinking, either. I drank twice as much before 21 than I do after 21 and I like it that way. Got my drunk/puking stage out of my system early. ;)

Not sure what you use the car for. Here are some suggestions in your price range.

Performance Brake pads: Hawk HP+, Carbotech, etc.
Stainless Steel Brake lines
MS/MMR/Delring diff mounts
MS/MMR/Delring motor mounts
radiator cowl
Beatrush rear ladder brace
CD player
Sway bars
Gauges
High flow fuel pump
oil catch can
sport alignment
synthetic fluids for brakes, tranny, engine and diff.
OR......
Save the $130 and put it toward:
a frikkin' Torsen
roll bar
wider wheels

elesjuan 03-07-2008 10:21 PM

Or paypal it to me.. Saving for my new car:



:D :D :D

urgaynknowit 03-07-2008 10:38 PM

torsen
new tires
a lip? garage vary
something carbon fiber, like inside parts,
gauges, door speakers

or save it for longer, and then come back to it
or if something breaks, u can have it just in case

god damn if that ain't the truth!!!!

to OP
if i was you, think of a way to put money on the side and not spend it, i know it sounds easy but believe me its not...
at this point you need the more expensive upgrades, such as a roll bar, 1.8 rear or a coolant re-route
if you dont have a roll bar, i would make that my first purchase

I don't even remember the last thing I spend 100$ on.. Probably my new turbo compressor.
