My first car! R32 gts4

[yz125-99]

Hey guys,

I decided to go for the R32 gts4.

I was just wondering, i have $5k to spend o n the car, for mods etc.. (won't get very far) But can someone make a short list, of some mods, that will help with handling, and also, what are some small mods i should get to improve the power od the car ?

Also, has anyone got any idea on how much a new paint job will cost ? or has anyone got any ideas of a good place to go to, to get it done ? (Im in Victoria)

Thanks

Obviously i havnt got it yet. Ive just decided to go for it over the gtst, and i only have a limited ammount of cash to spend on mods.

Im still deciding out of 2 gts4's that are on carsales.com.au. Theres a nice Black one for $17.500 which i might go for, but its Auto.

Any idea on a rough cost to get a Auto converted to Manual ?

Thanks

oh.. ok.. be careful of getting too keen on anything seen on carsales - there are people like me who sold their cars 2 months ago and still haven't removed their ad.. :Oops:

First time you line up with a falcodore at the lights and its like today in Melb (WET) you will know you made the right choice!

DO - change all fluids unless already done. Change Fuel and Oil filters.

Check in boot on drivers side for fluid level in AWD txfr case reservoir.

New plugs - Plat NGK's, New panel filter, remove front entry plastic into air box behind headlight but leave bit attached at front to rad support panel so no hot under hood air coming in. DONT put on POD! Remove mesh on AFM.

Replumb waste gate solenoid reference from near Turbo comp outlet to the inlet manifold so better response. Check under plastic boots that go ontop of plugs for arcing of springloaded contacts and file flat if corroded. Fit accurate boost gauge to check no overboosting or problems with vacuum. Do not play with boost until you have the gauge installed. Reset ECU - disconnect bat. then foot on brake, reconnect.

If an Auto dont replace ByPass valve on engine crossover pipe with a BOV -stuffs response and does not need a BOV like a manual.

Then...

3" Exhaust / Etc.
