Hey,
So after about 8 months of owning my car, I have finally started in on my mods. Took me a little while to ensure I was for sure in love with the car. At one point I was ready to trade it in for a truck, but now I am more sure than ever that I couldn't do it. Would probably break my heart to see her go.
I have done quite a bit of research on all the following mods I want to do. I would very much be open to suggestions and opinions for sure.
So starting off I have a 2006 Velocity Red GT MT. 62000KM on her, and on the second engine(Stupid owners and car dealership not knowing about rotary engines)
My first Mod I have already as a base to accommodate other mods. Cobb AP![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Exhaust I went with is an Ebay one. It's cheap I know, but I can't get enough of the sound. It's deep. I can't bring myself to spending a hell of a lot on exhaust for just sound. The cat may or may not be coming off. Depends on how it looks.
Pulleys I'm looking into Agency power. Seems like the best set.
Prolite Flywheel and counter weight along with ACT Clutch
BHR Ignition System - The Best I've heard and seen on youtube![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
And BHR Motor mounts(I probably wouldn't worry as much if they weren't worn already so I may as well go with some high end)
Axial Short Throw Shifter-I'm looking forward to this one as the stock is short as it is I can't imagine how this one is going to feel![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
What I haven't looked into as much is Brakes, Body(Which I might only do front bumper and side skirts as my passenger side took a nice hit on a very large(Probably against code) speed bump and cracked it.
Can't think of what else to do. Not looking to make it "Ricey" in the least. Meaning I am not looking to put giant *** spoiler or lambo doors or under glow lol. I've read that CAI are basically useless on these cars so I may as well just put a better filter in it and call that one good. I will be looking into the Fan DIY switch. Doesn't stay hot long up north here but there are those days she runs super hot.
Going to tint the back 3 windows(Cant do my mains as is illegal here)
Currently have Falken Ziex ZE-912 on 17's Street Gear rims( I think they are in house specials from Kal-Tire or something they came with the car. Look nice though.
Suspension mods are coming too. I am just looking into them now. But this list will take me a couple years to complete anyways, so no real rush lol.
Anyways, that's my plans and like I said you guys probably know a ton more than I do and I would definitely appreciate the feedback and input.
