Hey just wanted to see what you guys thought your best and worst upgrades were :rolleyes: any advice as to what i can do as my first easy upgrade as a noobie


Posted

The only "mods" I did were the BFI and perhaps resealing the headlights or rewaxing the car. Resealing the headlights is just like the BFI cuz you gotta take out the headlight anyways.

I was gonna get 19" wheels but I heard the low profile tires that you have to use make for a rougher ride, so I am goin for 18"s. I suggest a body kit and a BFI or short ram, lower it an inch or so, go for a chrome grill, and some dark tinted windows are pretty sweet for that "mysterious driver" bid.

very nice ideas im workin on the bfi, got the dark tints which look awesome with the white paint, have the chromes and would love to lower it if you could give me some ideas on what springs and such

:cheers:

man, i would love to make some improvements to my sc400. it seems like there is something holding back the engine from accelerating in first and second gears. my friends and i looked under the car and were concerned with the design of the exhaust system. what chnages to the car can i make to get the extra hp i need for faster acceleration, and if it is the exhaust system, what do i do to change it?

ps. any autocross tips for the sc400?

I love my Supra wheels, perfect offset... I'll be loving my supra brakes soon too.. ;)

You have a good picture of your car with the supra rims? And where'd you get them?

Heres my first nubee mod, and it has three upsides, 1. ~60$ so it is fairly cheap. 2. effective, they say this is the quickest best bolt on starter mod, possibly up to 10% increase in Hp done right. 3. It is fairly easy, a 10mm socket, a common drill (to drill some holes), and a K&N high flow airfilter. Take it apart, drill some holes ~1/2 to 3/4 of an inch to let more air in on the dirty side of the filter, put it all back together and what do you have? A barebones but functional modified cool air induction kit. mine works great. Exhaust obvisously important too, that maybe next or the one after that. But thats more work and more $$$

xoom04 - get a PI dragon torque converter with a 3200 stall, you love yourself after that mod.

OneHotLexus - eibachs are good, but i would go with TT stock suspension. better than what you have and was told it handles very nice and does drop the car a bit. cheaper too when bought used.

1slicksc - for you sir, i wouldnt go noob on this, try and save some cash and go boosted. its the best feeling in my opinion. for under $3000 you will be a very happy man.
