$700 Would be best spent on making you stop faster or handling better. such as

a set of DBS's and good pads will cost just under 700 fitted.

or some better stiffer suspension mods???

just a thought, a great piece of wisdom passed to me from my father "make your car turn and break 1st, befor making it go fast", better to stop fast than die fast.

just my 2 cents.

Fit a second hand XR diff . with 3.45 ratio and lsd .. Should get one for $500 or so... The lower ratio will give heaps more throttle responce.....
