Re: cheap upgrades?

look on ebay type in coilovers and look for 1G coilovers price around 50-100 bucks, or you can cut your springs. for a little more power there really isnt much to do without some money. you can get an exhaust, intake, and just alot of fine tune adjustments.

Ew, cutting springs is a horrible idea. If you're going to get coilovers, buy shocks and struts with them. If not, your struts will be shot within 2 weeks and you'll be forced to buy new ones anyway.

You can buy some cheap eBay Cold Air Intake then buy a K&N Filter for it for about $20.

A local exhaust shop can probably custom build you an exhaust for $250-300.

you should look on ebay and at the junk yards and try and find a turbo engine with turbo, i found mine for 600 bucks and it only had 75K miles. Then install it on the car. once you have a turbo engine upgrades are very cheap and you get alot of hp out of them.

He said cheap upgrades. Swapping a motor into a car is far from cheap, especially if you don't have the tools/knowledge to do it yourself.
