which mod first?!?!

[commisme]

hey guys,just thought id get ur opinion on this.Ive only had my vz for three wks now and am just about to do my first mods but im on a tight budget and can only do it in parts! What wuld u peeps do/ lowered suspension-2 get that LOOK or CAI or Sports Muffler(twintips)? Dont have enuf yet 2 get proper exhaust system yet,but really want the better Note! Any ideas?I myself thought the engine mods should be done first but then my car currently looks like a Cover candidate for 4x4 magazine!thanks. ?

I too had to do it in stages.....being a ute tho, my back end stuck up like a lift kit (well not quite but you get the idea)....So here is the order I went in.

1. 2 1/2 Inch Cat Back Exhaust (Gets rid of that electric car noise)
2. Kings Super Low Springs
3. SS Inductions "Growler" CAI (Nice on a cold night off the line)
4. Pacemaker Extractors (Damn.....it sounds nice)

That has been over just short of a 2 year period. With a total cost of approx $ 2500.

I've gone a different way:

(1) Tinted Windows
(2)CAI home job :thumbsup:
(3) SS Grille insert
(4) Powerchip :thumbsup:
(5) SuperLows
(6)GT Swaybars
(7) SS side vents :thumbsup:

Next SSZ hard Lid
Next Monaro bonet scoop mod
Next HM headers + Cat back
Last Black 19" Octanes with Hankook K7's :yeah:

I agree with VZ rob,

Home made CAI or manaro CAI is the way to go.

Extractors and system then have a custom tune.

Sounds Good To Me!

SO .........if I was to whack on a set of pacemakers, and supporting exhaust system..(type unknown at this point) ????
What type of increase in power could I expect from a 'stock' SV6. :whistling

I would personally lower first but that's just me.
