  1. The best Performance Mods are simply…. MAINTENANCE if your car runs like trash you will only amplify how much faster your car breaks down.

  2. RPF1s on my e92🤔, Annovia Titans on my z33 🥹

    My first mod was stainless steel brake lines, stoptech rotors and hawk pads. I recommend them to anyone.

  3. Hey a new video? No. Same shit different words. We get it, you like wheels tire suspension exhaust and intake. You can recommend other parts though. Talk about something else

  4. Hey!
    Any tips to prevent hydrolocking with a cold air intake? Ive seen the covers AEM sells online, but I think is not enough.

  5. If youre new to modifying cars; specifically suspension modifications. A lot of people dont think too much about the geometry of the car and how the suspension works.
    Firstly, do some research before slamming your car (It will be super beneficial in the long run). Things like roll center, camber, toe etc. will all change as soon as you adjust that ride height or any suspension component. Not to mention all the things you are going to wear, like your CVs and tyres.
    Its a chain reaction so do it properly the first time and it will be cheaper and safer in the long run.

  6. On my Sentra specv I started with a short shifter, exhaust, intake, wheels/tires, and coilovers. Totally changes the car

  7. Intake, downpipe, mufflers, gutted cats, header, lowering springs, poly motor mounts, front/rear sway bars, front/rear strut braces, mild weight reduction, wheels/tires, drilled/slotted rotors and brake pads. Don’t blow your money on a cat-back since your factory one works fine without forced induction. Been tuning cars for two decades. This is the budget recipe for a well-rounded and fun car. Nothing on this list is super expensive except for wheels if you want lightweight. A simple set of Motegi, Konig, or Enkei would be my pics for bang-for-the-buck. These are in no order but I honestly would do lowering springs and poly mounts first as this will stiffen the car up and allow you to feel the road better. I’d do a tune last when you’ve decided your done with everything else and you may need to upgrade your fuel and spark accordingly. On most cars, headers are your biggest power gain out of the bolt-on list. Its your money, your car and your choice but this is the knowledge I’ve gathered thru my 23 years of modding customers’ cars for a living. Again this is a budget list for beginners or people without a large expendable income. Happy modding.

  8. No hate, but when did we all start referring to engines as “motors?” In the words of my auto tech teacher from days of olde, 2005, “motors are in electronics. Engines are in cars.” Great video!!

  9. Speaking of the order that you should mod your car in. I got a stock miata, did a poor paint job, straight piped it. Then I got sick of the loud noise so I put a turbo on and a 3 inch straight pipe, big brake kit, bc racing gold coilovers, and still stock wheels 😂

  10. To add onto the intercooler, I suggest changing intercooler piping as well unless the manufacturer actually invested in putting in good piping.

  11. Most of these aren’t beginner mods at all, because I am literally just getting a turbo and tune and I been building my car for 2 years. takes time to build things right and learn how to do motorsports and track racing, not talking about street because I don’t street race for personal reasons.

    But beginner mods are mainly suspension components and chassis braces to improve handling and reducing flex on the body. Tires and brakes are the very first mod you should always do to any new or used car you get. But suspension is the real deal when you’re diving into building a car. I would touch the engine and ECU last because you can notice the difference of the car when you wake up the beast under the hood. Then you can decide if you wanna strip the car based on what you wanna do with it, daily driver or a track car. Imo

  12. Funny, im editing this same video as we speak. Mine is completely different tho. I definitely agree with what you’re saying too.

  13. Ranking from most to least important.
    1. Tires
    2. Coilover
    3. Strut Bar
    4. Sway Bar
    5. Lightweight and Appropriate-Sized Wheels
    6. Lightweight Body Kits (Exterior and Interior)
    7. Brakes and Brake Lines
    8. Full Sports Exhaust Kit
    9. Intercooler
    10. Intakes
    11. Aluminum Pipes
    12. ECU Tuning

  14. When it comes to mods, Honda has always been the most popular one. you hardly ever see a modified Corolla out there, but a modified Civic can be seen everywhere.

  15. When I had my 05 tC I added a TRD axleback exhaust, k&n intake, and tanabe strut tower bar. It was a fun little daily

  16. i think going light weight with body panels but if your seat and steering wheel has air bags

  17. it pains me when people in car groups ask about wheels that are just as heavy, if not heavier than the stock wheels. if you can drop about 10 lbs per wheel. you will definitely notice the difference.

  18. Hell yeah, thank you for this. It’s definitely something I’m going to refer to with my future car mods

  19. I have a 2010 Nissan Altima I’m tryin to modify it I need help dk what do or where to start

  20. 01 Grand Prix GTP started with a complete stage 2 kit (intake exhaust 180tstat 3.4 pulley dp) then got front an rear power logs, then catback. lowered on zzp springs with niche targa wheels surrounded by bfgoodrich tires. amazing car an the sc whine is orgasmic!

  21. Yayy 🥳 i must be doing good. I’ve done everything you mentioned cep a tune… its time for a tune 😅

  22. 1st- wheels, tires, and adjustable camber links/bolts.
    2nd – brakes, brakes, and brakes. Dimpled and slotted are my go to.
    3rd- intake and exhaust.
    4th- depends on the remaining weakness in the vehicle.

  23. Fitment Industries: carbon fiber can save you a lot of weight
    Saturn owners: *laughs in plastic*

  24. I’m just starting to look at what to put on my 2010 g37 gonna get some lowering springs and want some rims anything else I should look for?
