hey fellas... my names Brady... i live in South Australia
my parents have just purchased a 97 kashmir magna for me...from my grandparents, so its defenetly not thrashed... its also manzy which is a huge bonus..
i currently have a bit over $1000 in my savings atm n was wondering wot my money would be best spent on to make it have some grunt

welcome to the forums mate, do a search and see what mods you want to do.....

your car auto or manual?

ripped this from another thread i replied to-



"simple mods are the go- remove snorkel and replace with 90-100mm cai piping down to your front bar, replace stock paper filter with k&n filter, replace stock headers with pacemaker extractors, replace rear muffler with a hi-flow muffler or you can go the whole hog and replace your entire exhaust system with 2.5" mandrel piping.......

if you wanna find out more do a search on the words in bold and you'll get a good idea about the mods

all of the above will cost you about a grand and will give you a good increase in power,response and acceleration......

then there's cams,head work,ECU's etc with these your starting to spend a lot more money"

brendan

well doesnt really bother me wot i get, i just want wats going to give me the most power for my cash flo....

Welcome mate

new ecu? can be done of coarse but its more common to just get a piggy back for around $1200 and 30kw is out of the question esspecially if the car has nothin else done to it.

with cai,filter,headers,full exhaust i have shaved 3 tenths off my 1/4 mile time but i could get another 2 off i rekon, plus my top end has improved heaps, trap speeds went from 146km/h to 153km/h

in other words, pulls heaps harder lol sounds tuff too!
