6.Sway Bars , a rear one 3.15 cm and a front 2.85 cm .
7.improving the chassy ( with bars or what ever its called so that it can handle more pressure - if any one understands what i ment explain it to the others )

Is he gonna get it painted? Cause I wouldn't mind the car, even without any modifications, with a different color I've neve rliked "gold" or "bronze" or whatever they want to call it.

Wow. No offense, but i didn't know people from isreal do these kind of things (don't blame me, blame the media). Thats pretty damm cool. I was wondering if that was a 350 small block GM crate engine. I'm just guessing, cause the horsepower sounds right. I'm not much of a GM guy though.
