my birthdays comming up and i got a relative spending about 200 on me. so i defenitly wanna get something for the line. so far ive allready got front dump, boost controller, full exhaust, heavy duty clutch, and KnN filter. will also be getting a fmic in a couple of weeks. so my question is what should ii get next (as far as performance) for around that price range.???????

Why does everyone always think about power mods?

You can get just about ANY suspension component (within reason) for around the $200 mark.

Tie Rods, Rack Ends, Caster Arms, Camber Arms, Hicas Lock Bar etc.

Someone mentioned tyres, thats also not a bad option... for $200 your pretty limited, id be looking at something for your suspension. Grab them for your bday, set them aside, accumulate a few more parts, throw it all in one weekend and get yourself a wheel alignment.

EDIT:

Add some nice brake pads or a service to that list as other options also.

cos this is SAU. that and there arnt any real good suspension mods u could get for that. caster, camber etc bushes all need a wheel alignment, so ur looking at another 100 or so ontop. for suspension its probs best to save up for all them at once so u can get the wheel alignment at the same time.

only thing really is maybe sway bars, or i should say; bar.

    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
