Ok, I sold my other car so I'm going to take a little of that money and buy a toy for my baby. As always the wishlist is long, so help me pick.... What would be the best plan for now?

Mazdacomp front swaybar (120)
GC rear springs (120)
Front strut tower brace (100)
window tint (100)
Electric fan conversion (100-150)
Take it to a body shop & get the scratches buffed out (??)
Carbon Fiber hood (that's a definate soon, but they're not ready yet) (300)


That's the things that are on the "I'd like to do soon" list... Looking at just a couple hundered or so for now...

Already done;
GC coil overs w/ 350# springs front (stock rear for now)
GC camber caster plates
Illuminas on all corners
16x7 Velox VX-8R wheels w/ EVS ES100's

A setup that will get u better than 15's

Well, I was origianly going for a TurboII conversion with the sale of this car, but I've come to the realization that it isn't really a financially wise plan for right now, so I need to at least get something as a consolation to myself.

You'll notice that with the exception of the exhaust most of my stuff is either suspension or looks, for 2 reasons.

1st, most of the drivetrain will come out within a year or so for a TurboII conversion, so I don't want to blow all my money on stuff I'll only use for a year.
2nd, all of those parts are legal enough where I can still run CSP with the SCCA. (ok, not the hood, but that can be switched easy enough.)

Yeah- pretty sure he's looking to improve the handling. Take a look at his mods.

Trying to stay in CSP, I would go for the tint, the front swaybar, and get the scratches taken care of... especially that huge rust magnet of a bare spot in the fenderwell.

I would either get the sway bar or the strut tower brace. The fan would be nice too though.

Rear springs and/or window tint. You should also tint your tail lights. That would be tight.

How are you liking the Coil overs with stock rear springs?

rx7gslse

actually the coil overs with rear springs feels pretty nice. The rear gets a bit light if you're going for perfect balance, but I don't mind because it's more fun taht way

I was originally trying to find a way to do adjustable height spring perches on the rear as well, but haven't really followed up on that. I may have a connection to a guy here who can do a real type coil-over setup on the rear using parts from a Birken, but that's just this guy said this guy said as of now... I don't like the difference in gap between the front and rear though, hence the desire for new ones.

sheesh! 100 for a brace?!?!?

Make your own!

And then make an engine brace! (talk to PeeJay about his adjustable cable one)
(I will help you, if you want me too)


Buy yer self the front sway bar. And the tint.

And the electric fan you can find on ebay. Like a Taurus fan. Or a Fiero one, they usually go cheap!


Then your left with the hood, the scratches, and the rear springs.


They have poly sway bar bushings, and the little link at the end of the sway bar, poly bushings at the autozone over here, for dirt cheap..... They seem like they might be 1mm to small... you can make them fit with some grunting though.




Well, its up to you man!


Peace!

i know it's not on your list ... but what about an engine torque brace?

from your list, i'd go for the front sway bar and strut tower brace. by the way, where did you find one for $100 ... the one that i saw, and want to get eventually, it costs ... like ... $260 or so.
