ManwithSupra Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 As above really, i want to spend the above but i am not sure on what i want to do with the car.... I dont really want to do anything to the exterior of the car apart from get the wheels refurbished, and perhaps get the bumper resprayed (stone chips etc) The car is coming up to 80k miles now so i am not sure if i should plow the £1000 (or what ever i have left) at the engine or what any of you guys got any good suggestions??

Guest Elias Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 If you don't feel like spending the money one the engine and not the exterior theres not much left.. A cool soundsystem? TRD-steeringwheel Racing seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 I think i would want to plow it at the engine but not sure where to start the car is BPU but not sure what else there is to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Whats a TOMs engine conversion? Anyhoo, maybe look at a full fluid service, new brake discs and pads, new OEM suspension, nip to CW for a check over or maybe valve stem oil seals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Suspension or valve stem seals would be my first considerations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hmm yeah, Just a quick question how much should i be paying for a major service, i.e Cambelt, aux belt all fluids etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazboy Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Chris Wilson will supply and fit revalved billies and a geo set up for £1300. Might get new bushes in with your budget too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
