exhaust, intake, headers, lower my car? i just got my popcharger...dont know what to do next..cheapest to most expensive?

 

Man, do you really need someone to tell what cost more then the other, (considering different brands different prices )what you do is find prices and then list the highest price in spot number one.

 

Next thing to do: trade your Z to me for my '99 Maxima. The '99 Maxima is a classic! Ya!

 

If i had to do it again i would go exhaust then rims then lowering it... If you see a good deal though do that first.

 

Lower that baby! You can buy a cheap set of used springs right here and still have money to buy some mint ice cream! (i'm eating some right now)

 

 

depends on what you really want. many people go for the exhaust after getting an intake.

if i were you, i'd do the exhaust, rims, then lower it.

 

Get an exhaust.
And then, get new rims and tires asap.

I spend my money getting new sound system first, and I regretted so much.

 

 

I spent my $$ on a very nice sound system first and I have *some* regrets. I regret that my Z isn't sitting on nice rims and tires, but at the same time I honestly do enjoy listening to quality sound. If I could do it all over again, I'm not sure what I'll do.

 

You sometimes crack me up, dude. So funny.

My first mod was track Rays and brakes I found luckily at a junkyard. Best mod ever.

 

Well if its bang for your buck, remember that I/H/E dont do a whole lot for a Z. I mean just with production engine tolerances you may find a stock Z just as fast or baster than one with those bolt-ons. Figure out what your top priority is first then go from there.

 

im in the same boat just picked up an 04 base and deciding what to do first.
as everyone says its really just want you want the most..
i kinda got lucky mine came with eibach pro kit 1.2" drop, nismo wing, nimso LSD, and the popcharger.. so i got a few little things done.

Im getting rims as my first mod.. IMO if your going to mod the exterior you cant get a wing or kit w/o rims it doesnt look right
if you are going engine mods first and you have the popcharger allready maybe get the plenum spacer or the crawford plenum.
suspension you could get some springs to lower it or upgrade the strut bars/sway bars...

decide what you want the most and go for that first..

there are also some things that are free you can do

1. remove the rear window wiper (makes it look cleaner)
2. de-badge the car



for instance here is what my list consists of

1. 18x8.5 f +20 n 18x9.5 +20 r rims (ruff racing 279 or 278 most likely)
2. tinted windows, smoked headlight/taillight/sidemarker kit
3. greddy front lip, visage type A sides, still working on which rear i want
4. crawford plenum/ and the crawford strut bar so it fits
5. crawford headers
6. HKS exhaust
7. stoptech brake kit

its just figuring out what you want the most then save for it.

 

ok does anyone know if it is a\illegal to smoke out your headlights in california? and what do crawford plenums realy do? engine space or? flame me if you want but i dont know all that kinda stuff

 

Definately get rims before you lower it to see what your setup is like with the new tires. Then you can decide how much you want/can lower it.
