Default What to do with 500 bones ???

So if i get approved for this summit credit card i'm gonna spend 500 right of the bat so i dont haev interest for a year.

What i got in mind is...

1. Nitrous

2. Suspension upgrades ( i need ideas there, i want those ponys to stick )

3. 70mm TB, Fuel pump, 24#ers ( all gonna get done anyways )

4. Rims, my very last choice tho

5. Throw some ideas at me

I would go suspenion... do you control arms, struts, shocks, etc. Obviously you will not be able to do all of them with $500 bucks from summit but its a start.

What i got in mind is...

1. Nitrous (NOS-05115NOS)

2. Suspension upgrades ( i need ideas there, i want those ponys to stick ) Subframes, upper/lower control arms, shocks/struts/springs

3. 70mm TB, Fuel pump, 24#ers ( all gonna get done anyways ) you'll want a 75mm w/ that intake to match intake inlet, and a matching MAF
4. Rims, my very last choice thogo fast or look good? wait on these

5. Throw some ideas at me Not to sound like your pops but credit cards are very very bad![:@]
Good Luck

Yea, credit cards suck....But they are good in the same way. The only reason im gonna use it, is because it interest free for a year.

The catch is...After that year is up, your interest goes up to 22%


And i already got a 73mm MAF, but its calibrated for 24#ers, i just need to get a new sample tube for now, or just wait to use it when i get 24#ers and a bigger TB. I was thinkin of doin rims last for sure. I already have bbk lowering springs, but i need alot of other stuff.

I saw your sig and you don't have any gears posted up. So how about some gears if you don't have any.

If you do suspension would be my next choice.

When i drove it last, it actually hooked up really good.....it was wierd. It was even hard to spin donuts at times, it would just hook up. Even with like 3k dumps.

And i tried to fix my signature, but i maxed it out already.
