Upgrades?

[L1OFF]

Guys
If I was looking to spend £1500-£2000 on my compltely standard (apart from silcon hoses) Pre Cat 4.0L what would you recommend? my thoughts.

1. Stealth Cam (I think mine is on the way out anyway) £1000 (ish)
2.??

Replacing the 2 piece top front wishbones would be at the top of my list.

I still think the most rewarding thing sto look at are renewing all the bushes, BJ's, UJ's (prop & steering), TRE's. With a decent geo the car then feels pretty much like new (as long as you have decent tyres ). You should also still have change to upgrade the brakes to at least 500 spec..

Braking and handling are a far more tangible improvement in performance than power, as well as not being nearly as expensive

2nd the above, I polybushed & Nitron'd my standard Griff 500 as the first upgrade with very good results.

Nitrons are ACE. Also had bushes and wishbones done recently - most rewarding.

I changed to Gaz Golds from the originals (soggy as a rice pud) when I bought it 6 months ago. (I had Nitrons on the previous Cerb and the Tuscan). Good idea re the bushes, she is at Fernies at the moment for an MOT and I have a replacement Diff lined up (mine whines) and the dash to replace. Should keep me busy over the winter.

Hi Alan,

I don't know how much they are worth, will have to ask around.

Also have some 18" TVR spyders with tvr logos (very good condition) with Bridgestone S03 3.5mm left.

If he doesn't want them I know of someone who might, and wouldn't be put off making up brackets etc..

[Mark UB]

Ok if anyone is interested pm me your best offer, the pads, discs and braided hoses are newish just over a 1k done.

Hmmm. £1,500-2,000 to spend eh?

How about a nice air conditioning system. I could do you a good deal, maybe leave you with some change... click
