hey all, my new gu has finally arrived from nsw and i pick it up in the morning, im getting a set of 35" mtr's put on straight away, its currently got 2" lift and im trying to figure out what i should spend my cash on first,

do i put a water/air intercooler on (already ordered a 3" exhaust) and get more power (with boost and pump mods) or do i spend the money on a 5" lift so it looks tuff??

im going to put a set of 30mm spring spacers in just to keep it roughly where it is when i put all my gear on it

so whats your opinions, more power and go hard or more lift and look tuff

its going to be a daily diver, well most days so grunt would be good but looking good while driving would also be nice!!

i cant decide, thought, ideas, anything???

cheers sean

if youve already got the 3" exhaust ordered then sweet, hold off till later for the other mods and get that rig lookin huge!

Pfft. I reckon they look tough when they have big tyres and a wide stance. Going higher doesn't make them look tougher; you just want to go as high as you need to to get the tyres to fit and flex okay.
