mods for 50k?Please help!

**empy** · March 1st, 2008 10:13 AM

depends.

first, are the tires and suspension in dangerously bad condition? if they are, unahin mo to. safety first.

second, is the paint in really bad shape? if so, priority dapat to. no sense putting borloloy on kung mukha namang basura yung paint job mo

assuming ok naman yung stock everything and paint, i would go wheels/tires and suspension first. nothing changes the look of a car more than some nice rims

thanks guys for the replies, mga sir, ok pa naman yung paint niya pero di naman ganun kagrabe sira yung paint may mga lumulobo lang sa bubong. kung sabagay mas dapat uunahin ko yung ilalim medyo masama na nga. balak ko pagawa shocks(4 gas KYB)at lowering spring(1.5 drop any brand) at sabay ko na engine supports, at bushing(how much pala ito,estimate lang?)at cguro mags at tires kasya na siguro..

thanks po!

If gagawin mo yang lahat ng nakalist... hindi kasya ang 50K mo.

Btw, OEM shocks (like the KYB) + lowering springs are not a good combination... the lifespan of your new shock absorbers will deteriorate faster.

I'd skip the lowering springs. Get shocks if you need them nalang.

On a garaged Honda ESi, I'd prioritize this:
1. Repaint / Rustproof (the roof, that is)
2. Radiator Hoses and fans (if you haven't used this a long time, yes, replace the hoses)
3. Shocks, brake resurfacing
4. Mags / Tires
