So, before anyone asks me why i'd spend 10k on my ST -- I love it ;) Sooooooo....



What to get? I have about $10,000.00CAN I can spend on my ST next month.... Ill list what I have so far, if people can suggest what else I should, could do??!?



Im looking for exterior looks and performance mods. Its a 2001 ST 2WD.



To Date:

Lowered

New Wheels & Tires

MAC Intake

Custom Sub Enclosure w/ Split Rear Seats

Rear Spoiler

De-Badged

Tinted Windows

0 Guage Electrical Upgrade

Excide Deep Cycle Battery

Clear Front Corners

Carbon Fibre Tail Lights

Again, the above is a list of mods already installed.... Some items ive thought about...

I'd get...



XCal flasher

TB upgrade

Underdrive pulley

Rear disc brakes



Color match lower molding

Color matched molded splash guards

Billet Grill

CK, uh.. you could let me have a couple of thousand to upgrade my 2001 ST:lol:;) or you could pay that 01 off and get you an 07 Limited loaded with everything! OR... you could have a contest on this website and give it away in thousand dollar increments to some lucky souls who can't do what you are contemplating! :cool:



But really, do what you wish, as that is a lot of money to spend leisurely. Me? I would finish the last balance on my 01, then buy an 07/08 Limited in Silver Birch with all the bells and whistles!:wub:

Chris,

Anything you do is your choice, if u decide to go with the 07, you are starting all over with mods again, yes it will come with the V-8, but you will start from scratch in what you want to do with it. I am keeping my 05 and continueing on with the mods. I would do the following



X-cal

TB

Super charger

for the power train and then some of the exterior stuff that u mentioned.



Good louck in any of the choices you have choose.

10 grand to spend on a vehicle in one month.



Sorry, as much as I love my vehicles, and I do love them, there are beter things I would put that money to. A downpayment on a garage with an attached house would be a good start.

I personally would have the v6 rebuilt as a bullit proof supercharger motor, 3K, add the super charger, 4X , Rebuild the tranny stronger, 2K then get the Xcal2 Flasher 375 ,MAF Sensor, 150 Throttle Body Upgrade 135.



3,000

4,000

2,000

375

150

135

TOTAL : 9,660.



Then you could do the rear brakes if you like...



Just what I would do..

Then take the last 1K

 
ck.,

Go put on your thinkin' toque , eh? You live up in 'da Great White North, eh?

So, like it gets really cold up there, no? I would first, save some of that money for

some really good Labatt's Extra Stock, and consider a good engine block heater,

and maybe a remote starter, so that if you are ever sitting in the Villiage Inn in

Leamington, Ontario, your oil doesn't turn to Jello in those cold (11 months of) winter

days?

I just think some of those Loonies could be put to better use!

Take Off! eh?, TnB...



P.S. Tell Geddy, Neil , and Eric I said Hi!, eh!
