Err yeah, I have a bad habit of refering to 6 cylinder engines as v6

 

first id start off by getting a haynes repair maual it goes throught repair to rebuilding your engine and there are pictures and good god they do help and i started by rebuilding my enigne cause my brother told me my car as was wouldnt that many performance parts which now i think is complete bs.
but yeah im a noob here to and my rides completly stock and im rebuilding my engine at my unlce garage here in orange.
with that maual and his help my car will be roar in no time.[sm=happy046.gif]

 

I second the Haynes manual idea. I've had one for every car I've owned and I think they are a must have. You'll learn a lot there, and you'll be more comfortable doing work on the car with it by your side. Now that that is out of the way....I agree with doing the suspension upgrades, ie: sway bar/strut tower brace, LSD, etc.....I love my new car, but I HATE the way it handles. These are the things I'm planning on doing first, if you wanna improve handling, I'd start asking some of the veteran guys around here about this stuff in detail about what brands/parts are best. As far as the tires go, my mom's car had 16" wheels and she upgraded again to 17"s and the difference in handling was minimal at best. But my first car I went from I think it was either 14" or 15" to 18" and there was a huge difference, although it slowed me down a bit. Kinda the trade off I guess.....
