How much is your budget bro. =). Normal modification such as Engine, intake, Exhaust. handling wise which are Suspensions, Stabilizing bar. The interior would be Rewrapping the cushions and lastly do some touch up or Repaint the whole ride. If for me, I would do a comfy interior for myself 1st before doing other modification. Sorry if I'm wrong ya. Any sifus out there to provide some advice.

can anybody tell me what is the lowest budget mod on the engine and handling...as for the interior i had re wrapped the seats and ceiling and will come little by little for other interior parts comfortableness...may some tips on which material to be used for later on the seats in the future...also some tips for the dashboard...

As for my budget, im on a pretty low expense maybe a couple of hundred bucks a month would be ok....can anyone suggest the best option of transplants to do, the suspensions and stuff...

Jin Jat don't want to be a wet blanket. Modification is a very expensive word. I suggest you have at least RM5,000 before you take on any modifications. At least now your car is running (presume) which is good but if you run out of cash during your mod you got no money and no car.... not so nice la. Just my 2 cents. I have been there and done that ....:proud:

yeah RM 5k i quite a bit of a budget...but i somehow wanted to know better to mod it...i mean, which comes first like do i have to be concerned with the handling first and then only the engine or otherwise? just give me more advise...i want to know the knowledge...

personally i would go for the body/chassis 1st...get everything straight, strong n rigid and the future power mods wont be a waste... :) just my 2 cent...

i second that. handling comes first before power.
