A Cloke Posted June 3, 2001 Share Posted June 3, 2001 I have a standard 1700 live axle 3 years old, what are the most beneficial things to upgrade, Engine, suspension, exhaust ...? Your thoughts/experience would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph7355 Posted June 3, 2001 Share Posted June 3, 2001 There was a thread recently on "Top 3 Upgrades" or similar. Plenty of good advice in there. Driver training was top (for all of us smile.gif). Decent tyres was a common theme too (again lots of threads on this one - maybe even get some 13" wheels if you don't have them already), as was getting the suspension sorted out. Safety mods (FIA bar, honeycomb protection, perhaps improving the brakes if there's anything with them you're not happy with) are less sexy but well worth doing. Engine upgrades are probably the last in line. Typically they end up being more expensive than the other items and will eventually lead to the other stuff having to be done anyway.
