   Hi Guys,
   
   Im buying a X reg (2000) VTR next week i want to know the best mods that dont cost that much. So air filters, exhaust, chips, interior etc.
   
   Just a random question, please state rough costs to guys.
   
   Cheers

   Manifold - £120ish
   Full Exhaust system - £300ish
   Air filter - £150+ for enclosed
   Cams - £300+
   
   these are rough prices, obviously it depends if you buy them second hand or not, and where you get them from! tbh modding cars ain't cheap mate!!

   Personally, I'd bearly bother with engine mods, brakes and suspension are where the gains can be had

   Deffo go down the VTS route.
   
   Standard brakes are rubbish and need to be sorted ASAP
   
   As for the suspension, its not too bad but if youve got the cash go for some Blisten dampers and some -40mm GMC springs. Best combo, but there not cheap. In my oppinion i wouldnt even bother with a cheap set of springs as the standards will be just as good if not better.
