Bored of the pug. HELP - aaronshort - 08-03-2013
Alright guys, im a bit depressed with my car atm, it drives well and it good fun to drive on a winding b/a road BUT
Im bored of it and need some CHEAP mods to do to it.
i must emphasise the cheap as i am a student with the income of a dizzying £60 a week who is going uni in September (need the money for beer/books)
Any ideas guys?
heres a pic of my car at the moment.

lowereing will improve it a great deal
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - aaronshort - 08-03-2013
forgot to add i enjoy having a nice ride after 9 months of driving a classic car with knackered suspension, plus i have to drive over 14 speedbumps a day grrr
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - ozonehostile - 08-03-2013
a properly lowered car doesn't lose much of the comfort, speed bumps aren't an issue until you go lower than 60mm

Smoothing and painting various bits. With some time and patience it can be done in the cheap (within reason). And can transform a car.
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Piggy - 08-03-2013
is it a dturbo?!
lots of tuning can be done with just spanners and know how
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - lolsteve - 08-03-2013
Interesting wheels
Keep a look out on the bay, sometimes a great deal can pop up
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Poodle - 08-03-2013

RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Piggy - 08-03-2013

60mm drop would be the best place to start
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - JoeP - 08-03-2013
Was my D Turbo lowered as standard? I don't think I've ever seen such a 'high' 306 or does it have tiny wheels/tyres?
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Poodle - 08-03-2013
I think the tyres are the wrong profile....
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - ozonehostile - 08-03-2013
yeah id guess 45 profiles on 15" rims
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Piggy - 08-03-2013
45s?!
Look at the front wheel!!! I would say 14s with 185/60s!!
RE: Bored of the pug. HELP - Matt - 08-03-2013
What wheels are they? I really like them

And as said, it'd be good to know what engine it is.
