hey guys i get my first pay check tuesday it should be around 350 or more and i was wondering what should i buy i was thinking of a new radio and speakers which would be most of my pay check. or should i get some headers if i do get headers what are real good ones and how much r they. or what can i buy so my car can pereform better and get more horse power i have a 302 with edelbrock carb and manifold thanx for ur help.
Buy headers and a walkman For the most bang for your buck go with the headers, Hooker and Flow Tech are about the only ones that fit correctly, but only if you have a floor shifter. No headers with column shift. Set aside some money for exhaust work too.......
yeah well i need to fix my exhaust because it is to low. 2 weeks ago i hit my cherry bombs on a drive way and it screwed every thing up. and i got it fixed but they still hang so hopefully i can get a new exhaust.
Well....since you asked "what is the first thing I should do," my answer is going to be for that question, not "what is the first thing I should do for my maverick." Put 10% 0f check in the bank and forget that you have it. Do that for every pay check. Get used to living off just 90% of your take home pay and you will be very wealthy befor you are 60. I wish I had followed this advice. Now, about that Maverick. Take care of the needs first, wants seconds, and hopefully some of the needs can be filled with the wants.
well said Hawkco Hawkco that was profound in its depth...very good advice...and it even made sence, lol....Jim Yeah what Hawkco said...Jim
I second Hawko, fix the needs of the car first , then ask yourself a question. Do I need it now, do I need it next week or next month. If the "true answer" is NO, then don't spend the money just to because it make you feel good. Everytime I go into a store I ask myself those questions. It has saved me money if for no other reason than I found it cheaper the next day. Cheers.
i kick myself in the butt whenever i think of that. trying to make up for it now. 25% of my check goes in to a 401K. really wish i had started earlier. make sure all your equipment is up to snuff on the safety side also. brakes, tires, shocks etc.
summit makes a good & cheap header for maverick. i like mine. stereo's r great but save some money and go for high quality stuff. do the stereo when ya do intereor work. you'll thank your self later. I can make all kinds of suggestions on sound if ya want. above all save most of your money buy those headers look at safty first r u still stoping (or trying to) on 4 drums i'm a big supporter of front disk conversions almost lost my self and car a few times due to brake problems
what r ur suggestions on sound. today at the swap their was a guy selling stereos subs amps and stuff and i could get 2 new sony xplod 600 watt 10" subs with a nice box for 150 bucks and a new sony xplod 1200 watt amp for 150 bucks is that a good deal and does sony xplod a good brand. i do have front disk brakes
