The driver is an underrated mod, me thinks. Oh a lot of people like to spruce up the lights but don't actually adjust the headlamp leveling, not really a mod but some fruit for thought and also for the love of everything holy don't go on Quora or Reddit for car modding advice please
It depends really cuz some cars have subreddits full of knowledge that’s where I learned the most about my car but def cross check info between different site
So I’m gonna have to say this. Having worked on a Porsche race team, I learned stainless steel brake lines are totally unnecessary. What people need are brake flushes and then they think it’s the stainless steel lines. We did endurance racing with rubber brake lines and had zero failures on them. Often the stainless lines can bind and fray over time if not installed correctly.
I'd say tires are a really underrated "mod". The amount of grip you can get from a good set of tires is amazing. Also if you want to do more skids you can put on some older ones. Tires are really underrated.
Oh yeah A lot of People from new generations are getting grippy tires and Also wondering why they can't skid or burnout in any way even when traction or esc is off ahahaha trends....
2 Underappreciated mods for me: Sway bar- I do not like roll. Another is upgraded bushings. Especially on an older car. Change and upgrade those bushings. Everything will feel tight and from-the-factory new again 🤘
2 underrated modifications if you have a Turbo engine are oil catch cans and blow off valves. Catch cans will prevent your engine from getting gummed up and losing the horsepower that it already has. Upgraded blow off valves will prevent your Turbo from getting surge and destroying itself. I never see mention of them in your videos I'm guessing because fitment doesn't sell them. 😉 They are important beginner level modifications that will help protect your engine and future upgrades.
@@dominictalcott351 been using them for 11 years, that has never happened. They use factory hooks and locks. There is warning label on them only because people like to improperly install things and blame the manufacturer so they can sue for cash.
This is late but... For changing headliner cover I highly recommend "Duplicolor vinyl and fabric coating!" For items that won't see a ton of wear it covers and looks great! I've used it to turn a blue interior black and it looks factory. Though it will not hold up to scratches on plastic, you just respray any wear spots and BAM! Perfect again.
One of the best mods I've done so far on my Challenger SRT8, is tires and lightweight racing wheels. Especially if your making a lot of power, because ur not winning if ur spinning
@@0hjaa3.06 the 940/960 from -92 came with diff called "1041" a.k.a. "slungdiff" in swedish. it locks up both tires but only up to about 40-60 km/h, if you tweak it a little you can get it to lock up to 80 km/h but it becomes quite unpredictable then. Theres also the "1031" diff which comes both with and without LSD, but the LSD is very uncommon.
A month ago I bought an EM1 Civic and have been doing exactly these mods: Steel brake lines, poly bushings, chassis stiffeners and some detailing. I'm really happy with it. 🥳
One underrated mod is, repairs before mods, to many people throwing ££££s into their 20 year old golf on wheels Air ride etc. but won't spend hundred quid on new anti roll bars or repairing some rust.
No website but you can message me on fb, kurt.lundy.3 and if you're local to Dayton or Cincinnati ohio areas we'll work something out. Shipping something that big just isn't cheap
The original 8 spoke is the Minilite, which was closely followed by Watanabe. Very old school classic, looks great on a bunch of older cars - from the 60's through the early 90's.
Sway bars, endlinks, and strut bars are musts. It's important to look deep into these as if you don't know what you are doing, you could end up wasting money and decrease your car's handling. Controlling camber is also heavily underrated,
Everything on the suspension of my 2002 Mazda Protege is new not just coilovers. Control arms, sway bar links, bushings, pads, rotors, brake lines, wheel hubs, wheel bearings, inner and outer tie rods, replace the rear drums with rear discs, new calipers, e-brake lines, wheels, & tires. The only thing missing it a stiffer sway bar (anti-roll bar).
Final drive ratio changing, swapping your differential gears to a higher ratio means higher acceleration at the cost of top speed, thing is unless you're doing max speed pulls or go on a track with significant straight aways you'll never actually reasonably hit your max speed so it's basically no trade-off for higher acceleration assuming your tires can get a grip.
Alternatively, some cars come with a solid acceleration focused ratio, but end up with their top gear still way too accel oriented. 3k rpm to do 70mph is just miserable. If you’re lucky, it’s possible to get a top gear reduction swap. (Evo 5 speeds have this, you can get just the 5th gear swapped.) Desperate to find a swap for my FS Veloster’s 6th gear.
tbh an aftermarket steering wheel can really increase the enjoyment of the drive especially if your stock wheel like the one on my 88 soarer z20 is HUGE (370mm), driving a bus aint fun yall ahaha. my steering wheel now is only a few cm smaller (350mm) but the difference in driving enjoyment is big for me!
Surpised by the headliner being mentioned. All black interior with a tan headliner and A pillars. Swapped them to black and makes a huge anesthetic improvement
Driveshaft for sure, threw a lightweight driveshaft on my z32, man did that thing feel insane afterwards. If you want an early on, easy mod that doesn't cost absurd amounts trust me and get yourself a nice driveshaft.
Too funny, but yeah a dash cam because of all the idiots out there that aren't drivers but continue to get behind the wheel! I still have to install my dashcam
As someone who owns a g35 I will say that I hate the two tone interior, all I did was take my headliner and some trim pieces and made them black, and while I was at it I put some stars in my headliner. It wasn’t fun but it was well worth the time
Most under rated mod IMO for a show oriented car is a second set of OEM floor mats. I daily my Rx8 and maintain show quality interior. (I park in a garage at home and work. Makes things hella easy) but when I’m heading to cars and coffee or a car show I drop in those crispy unused floor mats and it really pulls the look together.
The most underrated car modification ive recently found about is autonomous heater retrofitting. You can easily get one for 300, in a good shape, and it makes hugee difference driving in winter.
@@lloydgrandy8189 well there are the main two autonomous heaters in the market: webasto and eberspacher. I went with webasto. You can search for one made specially for your vehicle, or you can adapt a universal one. Btw if your car is not a diesel, you have couple of options there: either making a small diesel tank, or searching for a petrol webasto (they are lil less common).
Driver makes the biggest difference for sure. Wheels tires and suspension first for me. Then cai and back half of exhaust. I always leave the factory resonator in place.
One thing that I have learned that people do over look when that mod their performance with like a full exhaust, exhaust headers, cold air, and/or intake manifold is that it needs to be retuned. Can't just slap all that on and expect the car to perform better. Gotta tune the car to adjust the new hp out put otherwise your not increasing hp at all
"The car we bought used at 150k miles needs some maintenance love" Me: *Buys a used 96 Integra last year for $700 at 330k miles* Definitely needs a ton of maintenance love. Or just a new car xD
An LSD is a really upgrade useful in a winter car. You want that torque to the wheel with the most grip. Not limited to snow duty, an LSD also helps a lot in a German or southern Scandinavian rain fest/mud bath.
Tires hands down, spending the extra money on a really good set of tires changes everything, the first time I ran a set of r888 on my mr2 I didn’t even recognize the car!
Thank you for actually doing a video... Honest because we do have a lot of cars that's overlooked and modification that's overlooked, therefore we have a lot of sleepers out there with a lot of hidden potential...
Ceramic coating your wheels is suff a time saver. I spray painted my wheels and Ceramic coated them as well and I've always hated cleaning multi spoke.
When i bought my brand new American Racing 20”s the first thing i did was ceramic coat all of them, all i ever have to do is rinse them off, definitely recommend.
If you're ever in Phoenix, I'll let you drive my late-year refresh 1992 Mitsubishi GTO Twin Turbo AWD. Thank you for constantly mentioning them without non-stop bashing it.
Love the runescape references, I've played since I was 12 and I'm now getting ready to turn 26 (rs2->osrs). Also getting ready to redo the interior of my FD after I finish this custom roll cage. Using a big roll of universal carpet to keep the cost down vs oem replacement.
Most underrated car mod for any car is window tint Dark or just a little lighter Even on a stock car something as simple as tint makes a big difference
Aluminum driveshaft Differential gears Slotted rotors/ceramic pads upgrade Lighting. For $10 u can change all interior bulbs to any color.even have enough bulbs left for tag lights and reverse light. Oil catch can Throttle body upgrade Plenum spacer High flow cats/test pipes Upgrading ground wires to thicker wires. If u can’t afford suspension look for grease points and refill suspension points with grease To get more comfort and reliability of overall performance.. Etc... literally every angle of the car u look at there’s Something you can do without money that’s benefiting your visual appearance Or the driveability or performance of your car..
Engine mounts stopped my 3rd gear grind. The old ones looked better than half-life. That was in an NB Miata. Engine mounts also helped the already phenomenal cornering, too. Very noticeable and the old mounts were hardly worn out and replaced with OEM mounts.
yep go for the posse rear gear.It will be the biggest bang for your dollars.with the right gear ratio it will surprise many people with your stock car.
Was honestly forgetting the brake line thing because replacing almost 40 year old bushings is much obvious especially considering I've seen a fc subframe diff mount be sheared in half because rubber bushing to the point where the diff was only braced by the floor pan. 😬
in no order...polyurethane bushings, solid steering shaft (if your car has a rag joint), Michelin pilot sports, converting to hydro boost brakes, sub frame connectors, and coil overs💪
if i'm racing a car Top 3... #1 Tires - nothing better than more grip #2 Weight (this could be adding weight or taking weight but mostly getting the weight bias right for what you're doing - also the height of the weight plays a even bigger role in transfer) #3 Diffs ( if you have adjustable diff (even more so on AWD) you can fine-tune how the power is being moved to fit your needs) if I'm diving on public roads Top 3... #1 Tires #2 Brakes #3 Head/brakes lights (everything that prevents you from hitting or being hit)
For those of you who live in places were it doesnt snow. Stop getting the blue lights or even white lights they provide 0 visibility. Use yellow lights they give a better veiw of the road and actually help you see.
LSD is underrated if your car is 'one wheel drive'. When I put mine in, it felt like my car was literally digging itself out the corners and feels much more planted. It's like 'twice the car' because it is. You'll just have to deal with the clunking in the clunking in tight parking lots. edit: I wrote the comment before watching the video and the first one mentioned was LSD hahahaha

Steel brake lines are the first thing i do to all my bikes.
if i'm racing a car Top 3...
#1 Tires - nothing better than more grip
#2 Weight (this could be adding weight or taking weight but mostly getting the weight bias right for what you're doing - also the height of the weight plays a even bigger role in transfer)
#3 Diffs ( if you have adjustable diff (even more so on AWD) you can fine-tune how the power is being moved to fit your needs)
if I'm diving on public roads Top 3...
#1 Tires
#2 Brakes
#3 Head/brakes lights
(everything that prevents you from hitting or being hit)
Every time I see you guys upload I think of Taco Bell
Ding dong
😆 Please don’t, I also work Part-Time there. Haha
I added Front and Rear LSD as well as stainless steel brake lines and clutch line.
Major respect for that runescape reference! Lmao
As soon as i saw that Red Rx7 FD with the RE-Amemiya AW7 in the thumbnail, i knew that was @rmsrbn Ruben's car. 🇵🇷🔥
Exacto
The runescape references get me every time
Had a broken rear sway bar in my Miata. After I replaced the sway bar it feels a lot better. Turns better and doesn’t kick the rear end out
Can y’all make a video on the 1980 Toyota Cressida? I recently found a really clean one on Facebook marketplace and I fell in love at first sight😍
Okay okay! Digging the new intro!
First car mod is always the PINK SLIP!
How do you modify a pink slip? Isn't that illegal?
Aye my boy drifts and lifts getting his Volvo show in a clip.
For those of you who live in places were it doesnt snow. Stop getting the blue lights or even white lights they provide 0 visibility. Use yellow lights they give a better veiw of the road and actually help you see.
Ayeee i know the RX7 in the thumbnail its here in puerto rico🤙🏽, and loved the video!
there couldnt have been a better time for this video
Steering dampener lockdown, they are never talked about, but this single upgrade greatly improve the cars feedback and drivability
Best miata mod. Lightweight flywheel and Konig Dial ins 👌
ayyyyeeeeeeeee drifts n lifts made the cut 😫😫🥰
LSD is underrated if your car is 'one wheel drive'. When I put mine in, it felt like my car was literally digging itself out the corners and feels much more planted. It's like 'twice the car' because it is. You'll just have to deal with the clunking in the clunking in tight parking lots.
edit: I wrote the comment before watching the video and the first one mentioned was LSD hahahaha
BROOOOOOOOOOO the osrs reference through me WAY off guard!. MADE MY DAY!
