If you had $1,500 to spend in your car, what would you buy?

Mookie469 · 06-20-2007, 11:34 PM

I need some ideas in what to buy with some extra money that i am getting. I was thinking of buying, HFP aero kit ($1003 shipped), Greedy Tic (519) and then with some money that i already have saved up i could buy the springs and CAI. What do you guys think about that. By the way i dont have any mods in the car at the moment. I drive 06 Si, HBR.

HFP (aero kit) Looks
Greedy (cat back) performance
CAI (Injen) performance
Springs (Skunk2) Looks/driving

I'm looking at spending around the same amount here in about a month.. I am getting Greddy Evo2 exhaust, Injen SRI, Tein S tech springs and tinting my windows...

is this a one shot deal of 1500? or will you regularly have disposable income for mods?

Mookie469 · 06-20-2007, 11:39 PM

I already got the windown, actually that was the first thing that i do to all my cars.

Do you happend to know the real difference in the SRI and CAI? What is the difference in the HP?

Mookie469 · 06-21-2007, 12:20 AM

Hondasi15 · 06-21-2007, 12:33 AM

If i had 1500 to blow I would proably do rims or the kit

TJ213 · 06-21-2007, 01:02 AM

Intake
Reflash
New Tires

dlux200sx · 06-21-2007, 01:05 AM

15 hundred dollar hookers.

***Sirbelch*** · 06-21-2007, 01:07 AM

I'd blow it all on my suspension. Tein Flex or something along those lines with the camber kit in the rear.. Handling is the most important improvement imo.

Or, if you got a light weight wheel and stickier tire package, it would improve handling a lot and acceleration a little.

mike1970 · 06-21-2007, 01:12 AM

hmmm suspension you could prob do tein basic e/i that would be good

***jpik2003*** · 06-21-2007, 01:12 AM

Why are some of you saying reflash?? The reflash will have minimal effect on his car since its bone stock. I'd say you gotta do the I/H/E first before the reflash, or atleast 2/3 of those.

Lip kit + drop is what I'd aim at.
