No matter the cost, what mod would you get if you could only get one?
If I still had my '91 VR4 I would have to say bigger turbos.

Let me rephrase the question: If you car was stock and you could only get one mod, what would it be?

I would say that with the coolness factor alone, lambo doors are the best mod

Have you seen that ad on ebay for instructions to do it on a cd? I wonder how that is. I am sure it would be cheaper than paying the 1.5 - 2k for the kit.
973000GTSL

It tells you what you need to buy inorder to do it, parts are still 500, you just need to find someone to do it

I talked to a guy who bought one CD. He said it looks easy enough but have to buy the hinges.
DJ Eric P.

Lambo doors.....never ever would've of thought of that, but it is a very good mod. Maybe if it was only non HP mods, I would choose that.

What are the odds that the guy who bought the disc, could post it, or make copies?
detpac
- January 23rd, 2003, 07:59 PM
I already asked him if he could make a copy and I would buy it for Half of what he bought the original for. He said "no" but said to buy it because it had good info. Maybe we should buy it and make copies for ourselves?
By the way 97, did you get the CD i sent you?
973000GTSL
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:01 PM
Yes i did, thank you very much. How much did he buy it for, i will go in on the other half if you want, depending on what he paided for it.
detpac
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:05 PM
He paid $28.00 dollars for it.
973000GTSL
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:08 PM
You wanna each throw up 14 or should we see if we can get one cheaper on ebay?
detpac
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:09 PM
I think we should get a cheaper one if we can. Do you want to bid or do you want me to?
973000GTSL
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:25 PM
Doesn't matter to me, i guess i will do it, what should i make our max bid at?
detpac
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:31 PM
I would say $20.00. See what that does. What do you think. I will go halfers with whatever. If you PM me the ebay auction, I will watch it and we can decide if we want to go higher.
973000GTSL
- January 23rd, 2003, 08:40 PM
I just looked, but i haven't found the auction yet, as soon as i see it i will pm you the link, i will pick up the cost since i owe you for the other disc.

DJ Eric P.

Maybe try and get a couple more people to chip in. I would, but I don't have a 3/S anymore. I'll buy a copy off of one of you guys when I get another one.
The Lurker
- January 24th, 2003, 10:04 AM
I'm in to try and make those hinges, or however they suggest you make your stock doors open like the lambo doors.
detpac
- January 24th, 2003, 11:41 AM
Once we get this thing, Copies can be made for a part of the price. Imagine if wou will, all these lambo doors for 500 $ and time. Here in El Paso, I know of 3 cars at least and probably 5 - 7 cars that would have them. We could all do it together and save time and a bunch of labor as well.

97, were you the winner for 18.50?
973000GTSL
- January 25th, 2003, 03:45 PM
Nope, i didn't get to it in time, i am however the highest bidded on another one at 12.35, so we will see, the auction ends in 2 days.
DJ Eric P.
- January 26th, 2003, 12:13 PM
Does that CD work for any car or just a 3/S?

Supposed to be for any car.

- January 27th, 2003, 09:15 AM
I'm in for a copy then, just let me know when you get it.
973000GTSL

Well, someone beat me on the auction for 28 bucks, i will find one cheaper.
detpac
- January 27th, 2003, 11:24 AM
Keep it going. Why not go up to 30 bucks. We've got three in already. $10.00 per person. Not a big deal. We will probably get more people and be able to get the price really down.
973000GTSL
- January 27th, 2003, 12:25 PM
Alright, i will bid higher
DJ Eric P.
- January 27th, 2003, 01:20 PM
Just email the seller and tell him to give you a straight up price so that you don't have to go through all the bidding BS.

I am waiting on a responce from h the seller. He said that the cds are the same for all cars, i asked him if i could just pick it up right now, no responc, so i bid again and i am waiting to see if i win.

It's a refridgerator (sp) with the 'tap thru the wall' mod. ;) Of course you'd have to use the dorm size fridge and a pony keg for the ole 3S.

glad to see so many are interested in our hinges... sad to see so many would trust a ebay CD :) . but, to save ya some cash, it mostly talks about welding, cutting, and drilling truck tail hinges to work with your car. then you basically figure it out from there.
not all that easy.
in the meantime, check out importprecision.com. woot!

If I still had my '91 VR4 I would have to say bigger turbos.
Why? 12PSI on bigger turbos w/ lag is probably not that fast :)
