"Bang for the Buck" mods....
Ok So It's winter and my Z is sleeping in the garage. Time to go shopping!!!
So I was thinking about some nice inexpensive "Bang for the Buck" mods besides a cat-back exhaust and intake.
So list up what you feel are some good "Bang for the Buck" mods that will give the increse in HP/TQ.
Plenum/Spacer is about $300+ ish...10-15hp increase.
High-Flow Cats...$300ish...10hp or so.
Any other bolt on's...I can't really think of much besides Nos....

I've been thinking about the Cat-Back Exhaust, is it worth it? What next?[/QUOT
It depends on which catback exhaust...
i'd do some extensive research before buying just any catbacks.

Sport Z did a nice article on that!

+1 and add the pop-charger to that list.
Also, cat-back exhaust would not fall under bang for the buck mod on the Z imo.

+1 for Plenum/Spacer,cats+pulley!
Plus get some better suspension.
I just fitted my Tanabe S-OC TypeII s and the car is totally changed!!
No power gains(obviously!) but now gives the ability to use what power you have much,much better. ie:WAY better stability/cornering at speed. Power seems to be put down on the road a lot better too.
