Well after a horrible night at the track last night the decision has been made. The money is going towards tires. Let's just say the 4.10's are to much for the stock tires.

If you are sober and not with a bunch of friends that also aren't sober it takes about 15 minutes to tire of it. Now Rock Band on the 360, I was like 'this is the dumbest thing ever' and holy crap that is fun with a group(sober or not), better then anything wii makes.

A swaybar would be an interesting addition since he already has the GMS swaybar delete.

I was thinking the same thing. If its setup for the strip, may as well wait and save for a power adder. Doesn't really need much else right now without taking a step a bit bigger then $300 is gonna cover...

I don't see where your transmission is listed. Unless you have an automatic a shifter would be at the top of my list. You don't need a Panhard bar with the Steeda springs. Besides, with no front swaybar we can assume handling is not a high priority.

Nope. I was thinking more along the lines of some Nitto 555's or BF Goodrich kdw 2's.

I was talking about a rear swaybar. I can't tell the difference from when I had the front swaybar.

Nope not trying to make a "drag" car. I just like running it. I'm not into it enough to invest in a S/C or slicks.

Yes the car's an auto so no shifter for me. Like I stated in the post above to me there is no noticable difference with or without the front swaybar. Maybe on a auto x cours but not during spirited street/highway driving.

So we might as well go big and suggest a large 2' tall "airfoil" trunk mounted spoiler, dual fart cans, yellow paint, hood mounted gauge pod (with non working gauges, where is CLEVELAND when we need him?) A-pillar mounted fire extinguisher and some "type R" stickers?

I'd also say a Xbox 360! But since it wasn't on your list of options, I said the trunk mat from Grand Designs.

BTW, the KDW2's aren't going to be that great of an improvement at the track either. You'll need some drag radials.

I said trunk mat too. At this point though, I think I'd shoot for the GT 500 IP. I like the font -- the Red White and Blue my color mode -- and when I get around to supercharging, the guage is there.

Call of duty is badass. The graphics are the best I have ever seen espically with hd. Need for speed prostreet and carbon are pretty cool too.

COD4 is one of the best shooters I've played. Excellent and worth every penny.
