My Tune Results

[zebra]

Yes cars are a never ending money pit,

hence the Supra will be the last modified car I ever own

[Manuel Kasko]

Is it going to be as mint as le bombas 2 tone s13?

Nothing will ever be that mint or fast. Ever.

[Manuel Kasko]

Haha glad you picked up on it.

Have you seen his latest mishap of getting "snow plowed"

He brings the lolz

[Jimmy_8472]

Sounds like it all went well Kasko,

I wish i had enough money spare that i could convert to killawasps -_-

[Manuel Kasko]

A very frustrating few weeks but now it's all done I can sit back and enjoy the ride.

Suspension is probably the highest thing on my priority list

Stock suspension is a tad scary at this power level

[Mitcho_7]

I was wondering about how bad the suspension will feel at that power level. For a purely street driven car is it really only worth doing sway bars, strut braces, coilovers and new bushes or should you looks at adjustable camber arms tierods etc as well?

Camber arms and traction rods are cheap anyway, no reason not to when you've already spent $2k+ on the rest

[zebra]

No need on a pure street car IMO decent springs and shocks and anti roll bars is all you willneed

[Manuel Kasko]

Yeah I think even a decent set of coilovers will bring it close to what I need with some fresh bushes

It's pretty scary to be honest I haven't unleashed its full power gain as its just to jumpy and bumpy.

Also with my 4x4 status it's got a lot of roll haha

[TiTAN]

For those of you wishing to see what money looks like when you add a source of ignition, ie a flame - do what I did

ahem. well over $27,000 so far

[Manuel Kasko]

Titan I been meaning to ask you about this WMI

How did it go for you and did the stetup set you back much?

[TiTAN]

would have to ask rocket industries what they are going for now. as far as how it went for me, before and after? no idea its been on there since the first tune was done as far as my power goes, its ignition system limited not knock limited.

mines the Stage 2 Boost Cooler Kit but i also have the 2.5gal (9.5L) upgraded tank and the solenoid upgrade.

if you can get the nitro booster, it does actually give a seat of the pants boost to your power.

[Mitcho_7]

I might even looks into some bilstein shocks and new springs instead of coilovers, partly because of the legalities of adjustable coilovers. They are illegal aren't they?

[Trozzle]

Require engineers cert

[Mitcho_7]

Require engineers cert

How much do engineers certs usually cost? I know you were trying to get one for your car.

[Manuel Kasko]

Mitch your whole car will be illegal unless your getting your turbo, z32 etc all certified.

Cops dont bother with coilovers do they?

At least from what I have seen with act cops they dont bother us

[Trozzle]

Cops haven't bothered me for anything, however they will if you give them a reason to.

My engineers cert that covers coilovers, camber rod, traction rods, HICAS lock bar, wheels, strut brace, turbo, break lines, FMIC, and steering wheel is setting me back $1046

You make a strong point there, I guess as long as the car isn't stupidly low they won't give 2 squirts about suspension.

[Manuel Kasko]

And if they do then go get a cert simple
