What next
 
I have a little over $300 I can spend from my graduation...I was thinking either new headlights or change to the s281 wing. What do you guys think I should do? If necessary I could spend A LITTLE more.

PS: I got rid of those ugly fog lights and I have mustang ones in now....looks a lot better.

nitrous kit imo

if your not into that you could try some UDP's.

I was also thinking about doing some springs. But I kind of wanted to do it all at once, shocks and struts, and c/c plates. Only reason I say this is because my front suspension squeaks over every bump and my old sable did the same thing. When my parents went to have something else fixed on it, the guy said that the shocks and struts were blown out and he couldnt let them have the car unless he fixed it. So I don't want to be forced into spending more money than I have to.

That seems wrong that the guy wouldnt let you have your car . . . . .

you can do the springs yourself, its not that hard

I said that wrong, I think he couldnt put it back together with those springs in. He either had to fix it or give it to us taken apart.

i would do springs as well if you dont wanna add any more performance. there cheap and can be found used really cheap, enough that you can do an UDP as well.

Here is the how to i posted in another thread on how to install springs if you wanna check it out.

Alright, thanks. Yea I'm not real worried about performance mods as of now. I might do some at some point, but not yet, I'm more of a looks first. Its probably good that Ive only driven a 1993 sable and a 1993 olds 88, becuase my stang feels pretty fast.

why not look at a cobra brake kit. best money you'll ever spend. they cost about 400 bucks and usually come with everything you need including new stainless lines and brake pads. Takes about an hour to install it and you'll chip your teeth on the new stopping power.

what are you growling at hippie. Just because you're happy with your brakes doesn't mean it's a bad idea... Come drive my car and you'll understand what real braking power is.

I just stick my left foot out the drivers door and onto the pavement when I need that little extra stopping power.

that's kinda expensive on the jordan's though.

braking power PFFFT

Big brakes are for ricers :devil2:

r3dn3ck 06-15-2006 11:14 AM

ok... we'll agree to disagree. You know my opinions on brakes. We'll leave it at that. I'd never go back to stockers unless I was running a 6, then I'd look at some lincoln brakes or 99+ stock GT/V6 brakes.

Ricers... hmmpff
