Hello there! i've got a 1990 TP elite wagon thats in fantastic cond. i'm only new to the whole car thing and i have a few questions that most people cannot answer cause my car isnt a holden or ford. first off i was wondering what the most basic, cheap but noticble performance mods would be, exuast, filters, ect. and has anyone ever seen a bodykit for my car, or know were i could enquire about getting one? and finally seats, can any seat be mounted in my car?

Sotty for the dumba$$ questions but when i get passionate about something i research the hell out of it! thanks for any answers givin!

wanna swap for my imitation TP elite?
ok, mods, exhaust. there are many threads concerning exhaust.
extractors add a nice lil bit of power. straight thru muffler and anything from 2 to 2.25" piping.
seats, yes, simply remove your rails and put them on your sparcos or whatever u buy :D mind you the glx/exec rails are easier to work with.
bodykits, u can obtain one from bunbury motor sport.... i never get there name right.
there on this forum somewhere. they have moudls to make a kit.
part from that the Elant'e kit front spoiler and side skirts fit. i know, i have em.
filter, u can put in a k&n, saves u replacing the stupid thing, u just clean it.
annnnnnnnd, thats it
pics please :D

so its just piping and a muffler? i hope thats mandrel bent for that price.

press bent piping with a hi-flow muffler u should look at around the $300 mark. thats wat i was quoted for press bent. so i went to a mate and got mandrel bent with a supercat muffler for $300.

if u dont understand wat mandrel or press bent means... press bent is just wen they bend the exhaust piping with a machine and it puts a slight kink in it, and so the pipe diameter is slightly smaller in each bend and restricts flow alittle bit. it dosent matter too much on an N/A car like yours anyway. mandrel bent is just wen u have a perfect cylinder the whole way along the exhaust piping.
