Hey guys, i hav a 1999 magna advance th wagon 3.5L and I wana do some mods to it, both body and engine. Does anyone have any ideas?? Also if anyone has a car similar to mine and have modded it can u let me know how much everything costed..

Thanks all

Welcome to the club mate, a very clean straight looking car you have there... perfect platform for some mods.

Looking at your profile picture it needs some lowering ASAP to make those 17"s really look the goods. You might also want to look into the Sportswagon body kit, or just get a front bar and side skirts. Have a quick search to see some options.

As for engine modifications, depending on how much money you want to spend, you can either keep it naturally aspirated or if you want to spend some more money you can go for forced induction such as a turbo or supercharger.

N/A mods include stuff like cat back exhaust, straight through muffler, extractors/headers, CAI... the list goes on. Search (http://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/search.php) will reveal a lot of information.

Cheers

I would say.. get the parabolics headights first... i should have done this a long time ago.. it gives the car a completely different look... only thing is the light output is not as good.. it's a bit patchy...

Thanks guys, keep the replys flowing, as i am only on my red ps the engine mods such as turbocharging arent guna be done for a while but yeh i hav a bit of money that i can play around with

Welcome to the club firstly,

From a purely aesthetic point of view, I think you could go with some tinting, if you have the cash :) As citizen insane said it could do with some lowering.

Looking good with those mag though.

Enjoy your stay ;)

How much will a good tint set me back? and how dark can u go??

Most states 35% is legal minimum, but places go lower/darker. Lookin at $300ish for a wagon tint

My front grill looks weak as! Wat can i do to that, can u buy new grills, ive seen some chrome ones i dunno bout chrome but can u get others?

I think the magna looks good without a body kit (better than with IMHO). Start with tint. go for a darker tint, as the wagon really lends itself to good dark tint. Cost me around $350

You can letterbox yours..? A lil black mesh looks the goods.. Before I say anymore.. I'm gonna say DVS.. Otherwise I'll get into trouble! ;)

SuFz :rant:

Please explain??

Wreckers dude... don't waste your money buying new oem stuff unless you absolutely have to. Also about your grill.... if only it was a TJ :P
