advice on where to buy 'go faster' parts

Post by gregair13 »

ive had my cute little mx3 for almost two years now and up until a few weeks ago, it was the fast in the neighbourhood. it is no long the king of the streets, it is more of a princess.
so what to do? make it go faster!

i live in edmonton and was wonder where is the best/cheapest places to buy parts (ie turbo kit, intake etc)?

cheers

Put a ZE in, thats your best bet/value, and it will help you reclaim your 'King of the streets' status in your 'hood' And as far as suspension goes, I would honestly try your local ford dealership and find out which one carries ford motorsport parts and then check prices on the ZX2 strut / Eibach spring kits, it's a really balanced setup, and lowers the car slightly. Thats my 2 cents anyhow.
