Re: new mods?

if your an auto 3.42 gears and a posi,
if your a stick get 3.73 gears and a posi.

a nice gripping clutch would be great too like hockeyman said

says in his message he is a manual...so yea gears and posi are a good bonus. You already have the one piece driveshaft so the alum one wouldn't be much of an upgrade compared to upgrading from the two piece one.

Do you want to get into the engine or no?

Also have you thought about upping your nitrous shot? If so maybe go with a walbro intank fuel pump to give you enough fuel

Another route would be to upgrade your suspension

Re: new mods?

yea i forgot to mention i have a spec stage 1 clutch, so already good in that department. i had thought about upping the nitrous, but would the fuel pump be all that i need to do so? i would go ahead and lower it up if think i need some nice wheels before i do that. i wouldnt mind going into the engine and have considered rockers as well as a cam. cam almost seems to intensive and i cant imagine how hard the rockers would be with the engine so far under the dash.

Re: new mods?

is your nitrous kit a wet or dry kit?

rockers are a lot easier than a cam upgrade

[lilchubby]

Re: new mods?

dry.... and i know the rockers would be easier, what is the best ratio for my app? 8.0 or 9.0?

I would strongly suggest that you drop the tank first, then cut the access hole for the pump! First off, it's easier and safer, second is that you probably won't get it right the first cut and end up with a hacked-up floorboard.
Besides, your next of kin will probably make a life insurance claim on you if you try to cut the hole with the tank intact...if you know what I mean. I personally wouldn't take that risk.

I beg to differ. I cut my access hole no problem with the tank in place. I drilled a start hole and then used a sheetmetal scissors to cut the hole. Worked great and then I just made a replacement panel out of some sheetmetal afterwards and screwed it down. I can now change my pump in under a half hour if needed.

Re: new mods?

is their anywhere to get measurements so that i know exactly where to cut my hole at?
