You should sell the dubs, buy some light weight wheels and then do the horse power stuff and you would notice a really big difference, .

Just think if you had light weight rims and then added the HP mods. It would be like twice the HP....

I didn't think "dubz" was a popular term anymore. At least you don't have spinners.

I didnt know the phrase "rollin' on dubs" isnt popular anymore..
Spinners cost too much money and anyone other than an rap star who has it needs a cyanide pill...

dont get lowering springs get coil overs like the HKS hypermax's. you get the option of dropping your car up to two inches and you get ride comfortability.

Get a nice spring/adj shock combo for half the cost.

first thing you might want to do is decide what you goal is for your Z. if your "rollin on dubz", then you might want to keep with that trend. get an airbag kit, stitch on some louis vuitton seats and some crazy sounds. given its not my style (and probably not that of many of the members here), in fact I think I just died a little advising you to do that to a Z. I'd say you'd be better off keeping to a theme. otherwise you'll end up with a car that is part "pimp my ride" and part tuner market, but loved by neither. just my advice.

JWT pop charger.. around 120$, add very nice tone to the car.. doesnt do much performance.. then Springs, eibach or tein.. looks nice and a lil better ride comfort. a little better handling?? as for spacer, do a lil research and see which one you need.. many out there.. skunk2, crawford.. i think Crawford, you get either spacer or plenum.. not both. soo meh, your choice.. intake and spacer wont get you much hp.. for the same price, some pulleys can get you HP!
