Well you need to figure out what you want. Do you want stares going man thats a bad looking z? Or do you want to make the idiots with the flow mastered mustangs stfu? Seeing as how you will get a lot of flack for a flashy z with no speed - I would go with the intake and exhaust setup to being with

Since when do stock Z's have "no speed"? Also, I thought that an intake and exhaust pair would give marginal HP gains?

Eh. Speed or no speed is another debate. Intake and exhaust would add a decent gain for cheap. I wasnt saying it wouldnt. Its better to work on things like that versus add rims and a body kit without having the HP behind it.

with my 07 I put the s2k antenna on it before it left the dealer, through on rims that night, next day took it up to the tint shop. Meow i've got CarPuter installed and going for a drop next I believe. Then i'll wait for nismo intake or better. Maybe some exhaust as long as its quiet, i just cant have a loud exhaust at the moment.

Clear bra, if you want to keep your paint nice. That was the biggest regret when I got my Z. I didn't listen to what people said about how easy the paint chips on the Z. Now I'm in the process of getting my whole front resprayed and the clear bra put on. Save the money down the road and do it now. You won't regret it.

I to have an 07 and my list of first mods reads like this

Greddy TT Exhaust 1st
Stillen Air intake 2nd
Springs and Sway's (hotchiks) SP?? 3rd

I priced it all at forged performance and it will run me jus over 2k, and i think it's worth every cent. I will get mor power from intake/exhaust and be able to handle it with the suspention set up.
O and
Lighter Rims (havent decided on brand) When i can afford them.

Cheers

Kevin
