The Daily Driving!
Many of driving enthusiasts are either forced to, or desire to drive
their car on daily occurrence. When modifying a car that is supposed to remain that day-to-day utility,
the performed upgrades have to incorporate the desired benefits with least possible trade-off.
It goes without saying that first amongst the priorities, should be a regular up-keep of the car.
In order to enjoy performance/comfort and other modifications, one has to keep up regular maintenance of
their vehicle. Regular oil change, required tune-ups and repairs should be performed. Chassis and tires
should also be periodically checked, as those are the components that allow the car to follow the path
chosen by the driver.
When modifying the car, one of the most important things to consider is the role of the car. A daily
driven car shouldn't be as uncompromising as a show car, a track car or even a weekend sort of car. If the
car has to assume multiple roles, ability to swap the components is important. Being able to tune and tweak
the "set-up" can be another solution. Finally last resort is to make modifications that while will greatly
enhance the desired effect, they won't compromise other uses of the car.
