Speed or Looks

Dragster · 12-21-2011, 09:59 AM

Im trying to figure out my parts list, I could get a nice body kit with wheels and tires; or I could make it out preform any car on the street. the problem is, i feel if I do go with looks, i have to go all out because otherwise it looks empty. Ive also grown up around speed, i spent the last few years riding around in my dads Aston Marten V8 vantage before he sold it, so im worried that when I do buy my car the power wont be enough to satisfy me

the car's fast enough for street imho unless you're some ricor street-racer type.

i did some vanity stuff on my Z to make her mine.

Bodykit will make you look the part. But you won't be the part. Engine mods turn you into a sleeper. Sleepers get more respect.

Nah, my steering screws broke and Nissan wouldn't replace them under warranty. Something about how I could only get them from a dude out West that would make me pay in Charburgers.
