The way you have it numbered seems to be a nice order....

IMHO, Personally I would have gone 3 first, 2 second,(using one of BDA's De-Cat pipes of course) and 1 third, then the rest as you are able to afford......stopping power is always a priority with these monsters..... :rolleyes5

[Nick Mann]

Nah, Sean. Depending on what wheels are on there now, 1 must come before 3.

I would personally save money and drop 4, but it's all down to taste! Can't argue with the order much!

[Spirit]

I agree with Sean, brakes first - although for daily use I think the National disc/DS2500 pad deal for £230 may save a bit towards the remainder of the list ;)

Then the wheels/suspension and the rest in any order

[Roadrunner]

Brakes first for me too, but that usually means the wheels have to be done at the same time so they'll clear the bigger calipers.

[Kenneth]

H.7 brought up a good point... If you intend on putting big brakes on, you need big wheels.

My personal preference is Suspension, Wheels, then Brakes. Getting your suspension sorted should theoreticaly help you stop a bit quicker, and when you get wheels you will need rubber... the best brakes in the world are no good if your tyres let go easily.
Brakes are 3rd for me because I would put the biggest rotors I could in and therfore would need the wheels :-D

[i3ooyah]

get the wheels first, more chicks will notice you :p

i went with wheels, sounds, bodykit, suspension, brakes

I would like to thank :lolz: everybody who has replied and look forward to hanging out at a meet. As you can see its a very close race at the moment with wheel and suspension upgrade in front by one.
PLS keep replies coming in :lolz: :bighug: :beerclash PLS keep replies coming in :lolz: :bighug: :beerclash

:-D

Well, in my experience, I have got a lot of value our of a simple grooved disc and new pads combo. For me, it's like this:

Brakes first - As this one of the VR-4's weaker areas, by al accounts.

Then Air filter and exhaust - easy upgrades and nice sound afterwards

Then suspension drop - I think the suspension on the VR-4 is far better tuned than other models and doesn't need as much meddling.

And if the ride is still to your liking with lower suspension, then upgrade to bigger wheels. Bear in mind though that 16" -> 18" does take away a fair bit of tyre, which will be soaking up a good number of bumps!

They're my views anyway mate, hope it's useful! :)

IMO Audio, Go then Show. Personally I am still at the Audio stage and will be for the next few years :sad3:

[caishanvr4]
