Hello Mr Tuner, I'd like an oil and cam belt change. That's were it starts. Next thing you know is your putting in an OSG 5 speed and buying an N1 block for the stroker kit your going to buy. Resist!

No thats just you, Paul, Gav, Mike.....oh wait, you might be right haha

Get a small container of water and pour it into the pod filter while the engine is running. It will dramatically increase your compression and you will find drifting so easy going into corners.

hahaha

Not to mention it also doubles your power band, increases torque by 60nm, increases the motor's rev limit another 500rpm and drops your quarter mile time into the 12's! Easy m8!

Hopefully anyone reading this realises thats a joke.

Could end badly..

Wasteland advice doesn't get any better :)

For somewhat better advice go to the "Forced Induction" section.

The first thing people should do before they start modding is work out what it is about the car they want to improve or more importantly why they want to improve it.

Throw away meaningless advice about mods to do next " fit a FMIC , POD etc..." until you work out the plan.

The biggest waste of time is getting into the " I want 400rwhp....." mindset. It is a place many start but, ultimately get away from it as fast as you can, one power number means nothing in the scheme of achieving a result.

Don't worry.

All you need to do is take off the pod filter completely and grab a bucket of beach sand and let the engine suck in about a cup full while running at 6,000rpm.

It will port and polish the head and improve the steering. The Tyres will stick to the road better too.

I recall reading something on an audi forum about a guy that put sand into his intake. I believe it ended up being a joke.

I've gotta agree with rev210 about deciding what you really want fromy your car before you start modding, saves alot of money in the end.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
