These cars are a little more complex when wanting big power than most people realise. The best thing is, at 400rwkw, if you decide you want 450-500, you wont be changing anything new, so wont really be doubling up on any mods. At worst maybe getting to the end of the ID1000 capabilities but you shouldn't have any double ups, so you can always carry on modding further without fearing you are wasting money. Best of luck with it mate, sounds like it'll be a great car. You are sure to enjoy it My personal opinion is suspension on these make a HUGE difference. They are a boat, but with some mods they feel so much more nimble. They are no porsche, but they improve drastically with a few small suspension mods.

I threw a set of Re003's on when I went back to a 245/40/18 as I mentioned above far gripper than they deserve to be for the price (on sale they where $230ea) and when the do break traction they don't disappear into wheel spin just leave faint lines on the road.Re the nizzer kit and cutting. I have the big big cooler and modified the lower rad support to fit it. Once I did that I only needed to trim 2 to 3mm off two small sections of the front bar. To be fair if I wasn't so picky the 2odd mm of clearance it had before trimming would probably have been fine as it's tied in pretty tight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were only $50 odd bucks more than the gay Conti MC5 tyres. Oh well...always next time (if 245s are good, then 275s will be great). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion how beneficial will a Big Niz be over a PW 1 at 350rwkw on ethanol Luke? Edited 06/10/15 04:01 AM by rednose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
