Type R + £3000, what would you do?
Should have a few extra quid in the pay packet this month after working a crappy weekend shift, So how is it best spent? Should have £3000 at least to spend and I am not after styling mods.
Cars a 96 Type R, almost standard with just a de-cat center section and Ninja rear box.
Got my eye on a 356mm brake kit in the group buys but thought I ask how to get the most bang for my buck

Depends if you are happy with the power or not mate. If it was me, id get a walbro fuel pump, set of injectors, some headers, front mount and good ecu and a good remap, should still have some left if you wanted to do ya brakes.

It depends if it a V2 or 3 and WRX or STI. Whiteline anti-roll bars and BC coilovers are worth a look to sort the handling.

VF35 second hand £300
550cc injectors second hand £250
Labour for above £250
Hybrid FMIC £700 fitted?
SIMTEK ECU £900 fitted and mapped
Better brake pads £200
£2600
I think the torque wants to keep below 330lbft to save the gearbox though.

more power would be good....
My thoughts were, Front De-cat pipe
Front mount intercooler (good deals in the group buys)
Simtek (with anti-lag)
356mm K-Sport kit (again from group buys)
Thanks for the help those who have.... keep it coming

Save the money for a forged rebuild when it goes wrong.
Just get a secondhand Power FC & Commander for £350 get it mapped for £300 and stick a decat downpipe on there and you'll see approx 320BHP I would of thought and the TMIC should be fine with that.

I would spend some of the budget on brakes and suspension too.
