This Is Top 10 Cars to Upgrade and Modify Car Part 2

This Is Top 10 Cars to Upgrade and Modify Car Part 2 :

5. Subaru Impreza WRX

MSRP: $ 24,995

What is not there to a sedan turbo rally race (or car) with love 6 seconds 0-60 mph time and space for five years? Subaru WRX hit the scene in 2000 with a face only its mother did Could Love, but it has Quickly become the go-to for rallyists, the cyclist and guys who simply love to ride go fast. The new WRX is quiet ugly, but it now packs 265 horsepower wallop, is better than ever.

Recommended Change: The 2009 Subaru WRX has 41 more ponies than its predecessor identical '08. For those who have the oldest car at any general agreement is the "first step" on a ROM chip and turbo back exhaust. The Latter WRX is a little softer than the DG-car chassis, so Those. Using the newer car, more may want to do things, take a good set of coilovers

4. Mitsubishi Lancer

MSRP: $ 25,685

New Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution won power, capacity, size, sophistication and price. Although we would like to earn some money and buy the purest Evo IX MR, the idea of ​​paying to repair damage lapping frightens us. Instead, we get load Ralliart Mitsubishi Lancer. It shares the powertrain Evo X (less differential) and the motor (less 54 horses) and offset paddle shift gearbox (without S-Sport mode). While there is no doubt did the Evo X would be ashamed to Ralliart on a racetrack, on the road, two cars feel almost identical. The Ralliart is an impressive car at at unbelievable price. And how Evo X owners begin to Change Their cars So They brag about Their bills with the owner of the lightest smart Ralliart viable (and still great) buy Evo X parts for a song.

Recommended Change: The Lancer Ralliart is a very balanced car, and we would not like to make mods That Could upset this balance. But the renowned tuners: such as AMS and TPS gains of over 30 hp at the wheels look with nothing more than a ROM chip, so we would start there.

3. Nissan 370Z / Fairlady

MSRP: $ 29,930

Instead of scratching your head a clever way to explain why this iconic Japanese sports car is so good to find out we'll, just say: Nissan Z is great Because it is pure. It is a pure sports car and not try to be something else. It has a powerful engine of 332 hp, the right wheel is turning (rear) and is perfectly balanced. The fact did it looks good, is just an added bonus.

Recommended Change: The Nissan 370Z is a car that is so perfectly designed so well, we can not help but think did the realization of a mod poorly designed to ruin the car. NISMO and official documents silently do not have a set release date. That is, somebody flash, auto parts, carbon fiber would be a good start for a 370Z design.

2. Volkswagen Golf

MSRP: $ 23,230

The original hot hatch is quietly one of the best. Sport-tuned Volkswagen Golf had a loyal Following Following violently around the world for Decades, and the popularity of the car shows no signs of abating. North America has stopped the new GTI, but the car did we shut venerable 200-hp 2.0-liter turbo VW sport four, and the DSG gearbox is available only as good as everyone says it is.

Recommended Change: Just as Volkswagen turbo-old (well, a few years ago), the current 2.0-liter mill Responded very well to ECU height. The ECU tune is a simple and cheap mod, dyno graphs and show thatthis update Provides massive power and torque over the Entire speed range.

1. Honda Civic Si

MSRP: $ 21,905

The car did the import tuning scene we know today started not yet finished soldiers. With 197 hp, 2.0-liter engine, the new Civic Si Civic is the most powerful ever sold in the U.S. The new car therefore has one of the best 6-speed manual in existence, to optional LSD and a very balanced chassis.

Recommended models: Honda is in urgent until the last drop of power for the motors can it would be so expensive to squeeze a significant amount of energy naturally aspirated K20 Civic Si. Instead, ditch the stock wheels terribly ugly and replace them with easy steering wheels. Then wrap the edges of the sticky tires and enjoy improved performance and appearance.

This Is Top 10 Cars to Upgrade and Modify Car Part 1

A few years ago almost 6 second 0-60 hours and 8 minutes Nürburgring towers were the exclusive domain of hyper-expensive supercars. Now you can create a sedan that can do these things for less than $ 30K. If this kind of power is not enough for you, all of these trips made affordable to go faster.

We have a list of the top 10 "normal" assembled cars to change. Yes, these are to list the most popular cars, but they are very popular for a reason. Not only that, each of these cars a good performance, they have a tremendous amount of support and after-sales. Is to change the good thing about this is top 10 cars to upgrade and modify car, if speed is not your thing, many apparel items for them are too.

10. Dodge Caliber SRT-4

Image of Dodge Caliber SRT-4

MSRP: $ 22.995

Based Caliber SRT-4 Dodge can not set hearts trembled like the Neon-based predecessor did, but with its 300-horsepower, turbo engine and a low price, it is definitely worth the look. Caliber SRT-4 is a muscle car for Gen Y: a frame with a small budget, obscene powerful engine, and it will go like stink in a straight line. We do not want to take the SRT-4 on a road course, but it is great fun on a drag strip.

Recommended Mod: Dodge Caliber SRT-4 really, really need a locking differential. These 300 ponies we have already discussed all hitting the pavement through the front wheels, and they determine the direction in which the car will turn - even while driving in a straight line.

9. Chevrolet Cobalt SS

MSRP: $ 23.525

Like the Corvette, the Chevrolet Cobalt SS shows that if GM's engineers to loose, it can really build world-class sports travel. The Cobalt SS has a turbocharged direct-injection engines of 260 hp, the suspension on a $ 500 LSD, the really compelling Nurburgring, a transfer function without lift cool option and should create. Chevy calibrated Lancer Evolution in the design of the Cobalt SS and created a FWD sports car, which is easily as good - if not better than - the Integra Type R. He even held powerful production FWD Nürburgring lap record from a stripped, caged and Lexan-windowed Renault happens.

Recommended Change: Since the Corvette, the Chevrolet Cobalt SS shows that the bean counters always cut costs when it comes their way around inside equipment. The Cobalt SS is an aggressive seat, but the bucket still need more lateral support for track duty. We want to at least start the driver's seat storage for a proper racing bucket.

8. BMW 3 Series

Image of BMW 3 series

MSRP: $ 42.200

If other manufacturers are always trying to compare this car, you know it must be good. We can make any 3s and be happy, but for our money, the best 3 (without the "M" in front of him) the last 335i coupe. This Beemer combines luxury, performance and an authentic twin-turbo inline six-cylinder is not to upstage the old BMW M3 with an estimated 300 hp. The only downside to the 335? Its costs. Expect to pay $ 40,000 for one with decent specifications.

Recommended Mod: We used "ROM tune" a little too much in this article, but the 335i turbo can see significant energy savings with a new ECU and exhaust. We would like to take the car, as it is only by a series of light race wheels and sticky tires.

7. Ford Mustang GT

Image of Ford Mustang GT

MSRP is $ 30.095.

No explanation necessary for this automotive icon. Few cars can match the combination of Mustang beauty, performance and price. And if you need more power, the list of go-fast goodies for the 'Stang had a positive is huge, you would be hard pressed to find a car with more aftermarket support. The latest 2010 Mustang GT gets a new look, clear and within 15 more ponies that model improved over the last year. This force V8 315 gets even turn the inlet tube of the cabin. It sounds like a corny idea, but when you hear this loud roar in the cabin, you will think that the tubing is the greatest invention since toilet paper.

Recommended Change: We believe that the 2010 Mustang GT much powerful as it is, we would let the engine alone for now. Although the '10 handles much better than the '09 car, we believe that the intensification of treatment with Ford Racing Handling Pack (View of the old Shelby GT) would this already stellar car that do much better.

6. Scion XB

MSRP: $ 16.420

For all other journeys of the mind performances on this list, it seems odd to put the xB here. But then, who would have thought that a field of low-power diminutive would have to conquer the world by storm disagree? The newest xB grows in size and power, and his constant stream of after-sales support seems to transform into a raging river. Currently, the Scion xB has more accessories than Barbie dress-up.

A badge "BB" recommended mod. Just kidding, the new xB is actually called Corolla Rumion Japan. In bB badge on your own risk. We decided to add a compressor TRD 200 horses and a factory warranty - seems perfect for us.

"It was only after that we can see if there be time and appetite for such a program. Would costly and time consuming, so we have to be sure it is worth it."

Likely changes in the Veyron Super Sport, on which it also support dramatic weight-saving technologies, with a focus would be reduced to a greater use of carbon fiber about 200 kg Empty weight 1888 kg super sport, and a dramatic increase in the power of standard super sports 1184bhp.

2014 New Bugatti Veyron been argued that the potential of electricity from quad-turbo W16 engine over 1500bhp, which would be achieved by increasing the capacity. The ability to connect to a back-board power supply is minimized, however.

The top speed is likely to be dictated by the limits of tire technology, but with the super sports coupe for road use record has been achieved by 267.82 hours miles, it is likely that the extreme version of the car must reach at least 280mph to the requirements of the potential customers willing to pay the controversial £ 5,000,000 Price to fulfill.

Though Tourer with the same engines as the Civic sedan is launched, it is said that Honda is looking forward to the totals due to the imminent return of the Civic Type R hatch create a sporty version based Tourer exploit created.

If it gets the green light, is likely a kind of touring bike stiffer suspension to sit lower than the standard car and a kit-type R-inspired bodywork and potentially wider tracks.

The Tourer Honda Civic is the first fully developed in Europe since the Civic Aerodeck after conceived in Swindon. The production car is very similar to the concept.

Although Honda has not had the ability to begin touring announced, said Adrian Killman, who led the development of the car, he would be "comfortable in front of the class." This is because of the location of the fuel tank under the driver's seat and rear suspension tuning body axis possible. The trunk floor is also likely to be flat.

Civic Tourer is both because it has caused so striking style still great kick remarkable, and because he has not even been conceived when the door on which it is based to life. The designers had to use all of the hard points established, and it had to be built on the same production line in Swindon.

Everything indicates that it led the type of technical ingenuity, which may be the Honda brand such severe restrictions. If the production New Honda Civic Tourer Type S drives as well as it looks, then decided to society revolution led by the head of the company, Takanobu Ito, seems to be growing.
