VR Berlina, Mods Ideas etc.

[rowinskii]

Hey guys i am new to this forum sort of, (haha)
i recently bought a Vr Berlina series one in red. looks tough!
I put everything back to stock for the roadworthy, so things like springs and new tyres etc...
now i think its time for some mods and no better place than this forum for ideas
i was thinking,

SL King springs all round
GT Monroe Shocks
Some form of anti sway bar??
Exhaust
Extractors
Pod And Metal tubing to pod
Uni Chip

i am a bit clueless on some of these things so any ideas or thoughts would be much appreciated, such as what kind of exhaust to get and extractors etc and price

also pics will be up soon as soon as i know how to post them!

good choice of springs they will give you a nice ride height ( have a look on modyourcar.com.au)
depending what size circular things you'll be rolling on :P
the shocks aren't a necessity unless you wanna race or drive like a drifter or just want a better ride
for the sway bar it depends what you want more oversteer or more understeer
bigger bar at the front = more understeer or a bigger bar on the back = more oversteer
normally you would fit the biggest bar you can get up front then experiment on the rear to get
a good balance between oversteer and under steer. ( not sure on price)
for exhaust go no bigger than a 2.5" single or a twin pipe there are many many options for exhaust depends what kinda DBel note your looking for and what system setup your can afford/you rather. (vary on prices as there are many to choose from .. but dont go cheap buy once and get a decent system that suits you )
pacemaker extractors are probably the most commonly used on the commodores maybe ask " not a abba fan" for a price there around $400 - $900 depends on material eg stainless steel, mild steel, type of bend either manderal or press bent and are either a tuned length ( good for racing) or have a tri - y design which is the most common and general design great for any commi giving you a better running engine, better fuel economy & increased performance.
pod and metal tubing pod ? you mean pod filter ?
uni chip as in performance chip? best to get these tuned to what mods you have ... give greenfoam a pm he'll be able to tell you a bit more good luck with it all mate

cheers man for the help, had a look around at some springs probably gonna get some springs and yeah i dont think i will worry about the shocks for a while,

as for the exhaust i had a look around and got a qoute on a redback exhaust 2.5" from the cat back, for 300. Is that decent?

i think some new wheels would do finely as well on her.

stainless or mild steel? im guessing mild steel
if so just get a stainless tip to make it look the part
