Modifying a car is more fun when you do it in a sensible order. Here is a simple plan that suits Australian favourites like the Ford Mustang, Falcon and Holden Commodore.
1. Exhaust
An exhaust is often the first upgrade because you notice it every time you drive. V8 owners usually start with a cat-back and add headers later. Turbo owners can look at a cat-back, then a downpipe or turbo-back system.
2. Lowering springs
Springs improve stance and handling for a modest cost. Pick a set made for your exact model and variant. Cars with adaptive shocks, such as MagneRide Mustangs, need springs designed for that suspension.
3. Coilovers
If you want adjustable height and damping, coilovers are the next step. They suit owners who want a firmer, more track-focused setup.
4. Supporting upgrades
Better tyres, brake pads and a wheel alignment help you use the extra grip and sound you have added.
Do it in stages
Spreading the upgrades out lets you enjoy each change and spread the cost. Whatever you choose, match every part to your exact model, year and options.
