Stock Car Or Modified?

[koki_]

sleeker look

[male1985]

I'd go for modified. but just simple upgrades like for the interior: sound system, seats and electronics (gauges and engine management system), exterior: light weight hood and trunk, mag wheels, engine: cold air intake, stage 1 n.a modifications

stock

[RonaldoPILYO]

stock pa rin

 

mas naniniwala ako sa car manufacturers kesa sa mga after market modifications. I do think na kanya nandyan ang mga car parts na yan, kasi designed, computed and carefully tested ng mga scientists, engineers and artists para umandar ng maayos at maganda ang sasakyan.....just my 2 cents

[spinmaster]

Dodge Challenger... di na kelangan i-modify pa!

[braganzaboner]

Bihira na lang kasi ang pwede sa engine swap ngayon. Sa <2000 year model na mga oto, pwede pa.

Engine swap gets you a car with 85% reliability and is fairly simple with much of the Jap cars yr 2000 and below. I believe the last of the dying breed is the SiR.

Last year, I put in a turbo and intercooler for my Vti. I had it all taken out last week... :cry:..after going through 2 engines and 3 ball bearing turbos.

For those who, like myself, can't leave their cars well alone, either go bolt-on mods all the way or go for that engine swap...turbo and all.

That way, your ride will still be reliable.

 

Bolting on a turbo kit with stock internals not designed for turbo is not a good idea, ok lang pag low boost, I don't think stock internals would last that long when prolonged exposure to hi boost.. turbo is the easiest way to get more power, pero from a stock NA engine to turbo, i suggest engine swap nalang na nakaturbo na.. I've heard before that a few SiR with stock internals had a bolt-on turbo kit installed on it, got lots power but the pistons didn't last that long, so eventually had to changed to a low comp forged pistons which costs $600-800 per set.. for the cost of the turbo kit, ecu, tuning, parts, etc.. I think mas practical talaga engine swap since you can find good condition 2.0L turbocharged engines for as low as 40k, make sure na wlang short cut ung kabit.. mahirap na.. turbo is the best way for more power and and specially torque.. but for FF cars masprefer ko pa din NA over turbo..

It depends on your car..but for me I will go for a stock

[chiboy_d_goodboy]

sleeper look...

 

just simple modifications like I.H.E., sounds, 17s mags. simple bodykits.

[rakizta]

syempre modified engine lang as per Sir chiboy_d_goodboy ng MTP said...hehehe

[lbc327]

stock car as much as possible para reliable pa rin..pwede siguro mild mods lang para may konting performance gains

[dudung_dugas]

Stock body.

Modified engine and suspension.

 

Para maka tutok lang sa mga riser. Pang buraot sa mga "look fast look furious".

 

 

i agree, stock look but demonyo makina and suspension.

[Nurburgring]

mags/tires upgrade lang, lowering springs, and sounds.

 

the rest, all stock.

[Christian_19]

interior lang ang imodify tsaka suspension para smooth riding ok na wag na yung engine lalakas lang sa gasolina maliban kung ilalaban mo sa race!

[psychorealm]

suspension and audio mods oks na ako

[knoll1234]

a long time ago, my friend suggested reboring a 1200cc engine to 1300cc. It did not make any difference on my beetle ( my first car)...I sold it after that.

[neoscythe]

Mild mods lang na designed talaga dun sa engine and car (para mas malakas ang hatak pag paakyat). tapos magandang audio panalo na.

[glntvr]

Subtle mods for me. Like better HU and speakers and HID Retrofit if needed.

[Christian_19]

Pag modify mo engine yari ka sa gas!

[paulski08]

pag modified malaks sa gas pero matulin sa kalye

[xandercage137]

isang everyday car na may onting karga like diy port polish, mas malaking pistons and valves and reprog ecu para tipid sa gas. tapos isang change engine na naka turbo tapos dun na yung mga mods like bigger turbo, fmic, piggy back injectors clutch, transmission et al. dapat hiwalay ang everyday car sa hobby car. mahirap gamitin ang pang karera sa everyday. oo matulin pero di komportable.

[dchubz18]

sirs, patulong naman. kelangan ko ng concept para sa city. external lang. body kits, rims, headlights, etc. pero hindi naman yung kelangang pang show talaga. yung pang normal city driving lang na pang head-turner sa mga tao. thanx

[jasondy]

Have it detailed first. Slap in decent looking rims, lowering spring. Install an aftermarket intake then its up to you if you want to go with a full exhaust . Then if enough moolah, go for an HID retrofit. That's pretty much it. Don't go overboard by slapping in bodykits. A simple ducktail spoiler would look nice.

[manz]

At most I'll change the mags up to 16" max. As well as the headunit and better sounding speakers that go into the stock mounts. Kase, I believe that whatever you add to the car will not improve it's resale value. So mods will remain minimal.
