      Race seat. Its a necessity if your car didn't come with sport seats and i bet it would take seconds off lap times. Feeling connected to the vehicle makes such a difference and is the most noticeable improvement ive ever made aside from m50 swap.

          Mine has no real mods except

          shocks and springs

          head unit and speakers.

          and the springs are tight, 80% of the reason i bought the car. Rarely does someone put fresh suspension on and then dump the car.

            Luke is going to kill you. I almost guarantee whatever speakers you wasted money on are not better than stock.

              There are actually a lot of good ones out there ;)
              That being said, for the prince, premium ftw.
              I did my rears and cut out needed chunks on my hatshelf a year or two ago, SO much better than that blown shit that came with mine.

              However, I'm still yet to do the fronts. Getting the covers off is proving to be a bitch.

                  can someone verify this?

                  All I have left of the factory is the wiring which is nice and the door tweeters which are terrible crap. What were the factory speakers? nokias? Theres a reason you dont see nokia speakers.

                  anyhow the door tweeters are cardboard so how great can the main units be? The rears must have been 3 way because theres no tweeters.

                  the head unit was an old school alpine thats a downgrade from any $50 head unit you can get today what were the speakers?

                    I have the factory premium speakers in mine set up with an Alpine deck, a Lukebox, and the sub and amp from his $500 stereo thread. It does sound really good. The premium speakers are great, you just need a good deck and amp to make them shine. Obviously there's better options out there, but you'll have to spend a lot more money. Honestly, for me at least, that's money that I would rather put into performance mods.

                      PM StereoInstaller1 or look for his threads in the audio section.

                      To be completely honest, I don't even know what speakers my 'verts have, all I'm saying is hearsay from the pros.

                            ok thanks, but what were the speakers? what make were they?

                            It doesnt help me I have 4 pioneer speakers. Id just like to know.

                            the factory amp is long since gone im sure that was alpine too.
