I just bought a 93 with only 41k miles on it. I'm looking at doing some mods on it and have found some decent information. An area that I really need some help in is tire and wheel selection. I want the car set up for street/drag. Fifteen hundred is about the limit I can go to on this mod. Any advice would be appreciated.

For 1.5k I would upgrade your radiator and add the Pettit TKT package. Great stuff....

I was planning on going with a fluidyne. What's the Pettit package you're reffering to? And the tired are a priority since they are the originals that came with it according to the previous owner. They have about 10 thousand more miles left. So I was going to replace the wheels while I was at it.

Well not too many people feel the same way about the TKT package as I do. The package basically come with...Pettit Intake, Pettit pullies, and your choice of exhaust. The claim to add 60hp to the crank. I was very satisified with the package because you dont need to upgrade your computer. It keeps your car looking stock. Reliable and is a great set-up. Check it out at Pettitracing.com If you dont choose their setup...then you can get other brands products also.

Welcome here...

you can PM Vosko about his track-tires, but AFAIK, the stock 3rd gen wheels are the weapon of chioce for drag racers, including MKIV supra owners, S13 and S14 240SX's, etc.

I was planning on using HKS parts as much as possible. The Japaneese tuners use them a lot, and they have a good reputation here. They may be expensive, but I'll pay more for quality. I don't know much about wheels or suspension. Those are my weakest links so I'd appreciate links to places that can give me good basic information. No pun intended.

Just because a part is used widely doesnt mean its best.



HKS downpipes come to mind.

What's wrong with HKS downpipes? they fit great

welcome to the jungle. check the 3rd gen section out and the running gear section. i believe u will find lots of help there
