Hi,
New to this board...very thankful for finding it...been reading a lot of previous posts and it brings tears to my eyes for knowing that there some actual ae92 fans out there...compared to the number of ae86 owners...but heck we are in the same family...
anyway, i have a ae92 gts collara..its all stock...since i don't know too much about modifying my car (but I plan on starting)...just wondering what is best to start with..and then to follow...

I want to be able to add more performance and handling to my car...the car drives well now...but I'm sure it can do better...
btw, I saw many cool pics of ae92s and ae86...man, you guys have it going on...

anyone from the bay area here?

Hello
Go ahead and do all the basics and decide from there. (intake,header,exhaust)
As for the susp. I would go w/ Ground Controls and a good set of struts.
From there you should notice a good increase in performance.
There are alot of parts available but just takes alittle research.
Hope this helps!!
C-YA!!

I love my AE92. I'd say go with espelir lowering springs and Bilstein shocks, but thats my opinion on the matter...

I'd say start with suspension first. I did'nt and i regret it. It's a ccostly mod but well worth it, especially on that light car.

What companies makes good lowering springs for the AE92 GTS? Gotta have my car looking half decent for summer.
