New 8 in the garage

Hey all,

New buyer of an 04 AT 8, traded in my 3 (definate upgrade :D ).

Looking into starting to mod the beast and wondering if anyone has any pointers on where to begin. I have a buddy that owns a shop that is pushing me into getting Spring/Coil Overs first, what do you all think?

Do a search and go to the mod section. Lots of good info in there.
Welcome to the addiction!

Yea Mazurfer has it right but be sure and come back to this forum to ask questions - you will get flamed out it the general forums. We all have a few mods - one or two!!!!!

Congrats!

If you are looking at suspension mods, I'd start with sways first. Sounds like they are the best bang for the buck, and don't affect your ride quality much.
