Things like ES shifter bushings, small and not too expensive what are out there, and will improve the car, Have a birthday coming and would like to make a list of a bunch of small items for everyone to buy but I have brain freeze. can you name some?

 

- 2 Pieces of 3" flexible HVAC duct ($10 from Home Depot). Makes great brake cooling ducts
- Light-up windshield sprayer nozzles
- Zymol Car Care Kit - because a clean car is a fast car
- Pedal covers
- Colored hose and flex-loom


Cobra - Who isn't trying to be a smartass but who cannot think of anything "cheap" AND "worthwhile"

EDIT: About the cheapest thing I can think of would be my 14" Longacre Convex mirror but even that was $50 and it requires a rollcage to hang it from.

Ok I may be able to think of something in that price range. I was thinking $25-$30.

What do you do? Drag? Autocross? Open-track?

 

ES shifter and motor mounts are worth more than they cost. Get them!

 

Name the fun, I do it or will by the end of the summer... drag,autox &opentrack.

thanks for asking!

 

- Double-up on gift givers and get them to work together and get you a rollbar. You can get an Autopower 4-point for around $250

- Neck collar (mainly for open track)

- Red driving gloves (OMP has a set for $70)

 

Perhaps a steering wheel cover? The one from Acura that you sew on..

 

One tire?

It could be like wedding gifts... hope you get a full set.

 

i'd love to hear where this is.....ill put my order in immediately

They accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express.

 

roughly what was your average shipping cost?

not trying to be lazy, just cant call right now from work, and ive gotta know right now!!

 

I got my **** from a local dealer who sold me my cage at his cost. I can give you his number if you would like. I paid $108 shipping on it. They ship truck ground from Autopower. I think a bar is a bit less however. It weighs half as much.

 

good deal....pay day is nearing, and a cage is calling

 

Note above prices are on the BAR, not the CAGE.

 

i dont need a cage......yet

 

Just want to clarify that I have never once in this thread stated that I was talking about a cage. I was referring to a bar from the first mention of it.

 

Just wanted to be sure you got what you wanted. You did type "cage", so I was understandably concerned.

Bar on track

 

Hmmmm, slightly more than $100, but worth every penny:
1. Rollbar, as mentioned by Cobra ($260)
2. Helmet, SA2000, full face ($200+)

Less than $100:
1. Pedal covers. helps you heel-toe
2. ES motor mount inserts (if autox class allows)
3. driving gloves, as mentioned by Cobra
4. driving shoes (or wrestling shoes, which cost less but not made of Nomex)
5. misc. tools, floor jack, mechanic gloves

 

How bout these:
Air pressure gauge
Air tank
Redline water wetter
Fuzzy Dice

 

Maybe not as cheap as fuzzy dice, Upto $150.oo ???

Anyway thanks

 

neuspeed front strut bar helped the feel of the car a lot, even on stock suspension. $80

 

OMP pedals (the bolt on kind, not covers) - $30-40
Quality tire pressure gauge (IOPort has good prices on Longacre gauges)
Air tank (Craftsman or similar quality go for $40ish)
Speed bleeders 'n brake fluid
Robic stopwatch ($30-50 depending on type)
Equipment bag for all your gear
Tools

...to name a few.

 

Some good things! thanks
