Ok guys I got about a $4500 budget to spend on stuff for my z. Im going external mods only. I’m thinking about going with a set of black ruff 280’s and the JP aero kit type A. keeping the same paint job. Let me know what you think if you would go another way.
One more thing: I’m not looking to go FI rite now and I’m not going with a set of $3000 rims.

 

Rota makes some pretty good, inexpensive wheels...

 

oh i would certainly go another way.....it's called the engine bay! i could see a hood or some wheels but if you intend on spending all that on body kits, fenders and blah blah blah, you're crazy!

 

Put your $$$ away. Your gonna need it one day soon. Storm clouds are a coming my brother.

 

actually, it's a good combo u got there.. i like it. but i'd rather go with another set of wheels..

GL

 

don't skimp on wheels. you don't want them shattering if you hit a pot hole too hard.

not saying you should spend $3k on them.. but just do your research and go for something substantial.

 

I like everything but the wheels.....they look cheap IMO

 

Not a big fan of Ruff wheels at all, if you don't want to drop the $$$ on new, expensive wheels, look in the classified section for used wheels....most Z owners take really good care of their wheels and you'll get one hell of a good deal!

 

if any one has a good deal on some rims let me in i like going with the black rim. woold like to stick to the 19" too.

 

Get you some speedy octane's, or stern wheels, if u want to go with black, they are cheap and u can spend the rest on bolt-ons

 

car needs to be go before show or else you just look dumb.. all for the wheels and hood but get some other stuff with that monye bro

 

ok i got all the bolt-ons all already CAI test pipes JWT clutch/fly ecu flash 06 trans full exhasut..ectas for FI ill be doing that at the end of next month greddy twin! any other ideas are welcome

 

anyone that has spent money on a body kit is a moron. sorry. its just like slapping a turbo sticker on an NA car. making the car appear to be something it's not.

please dont buy a body kit. dear god please.

 

I'm gonna have to agree. Don't get a body kit, it's a huge pain in the *** trying to keep it in good condition when you could have spent your money elsewhere. I say this with experience having had an eclipse with a full bodykit and I had to replace the bumper 3 times. There's always that pothole you didn't see or the hit and run in the parking lot that will give you problems.

 

nice strong opinion, i look twice at a car that looks beautiful.

choose different wheels, 19's ftw.

 

personally i'd use the money to mod the engine. .i'd rather beat a Civic then look better than one.. .

Dont put a crazy *** kit on the Z though. .the cars already Sexy as it is. .but perhaps a nice lip kit like that front greddy in the 1st pic is nice. .
im doing a lip kit to my black Z as we speak. .front and side greddy/ still looking for the rear, but i also bought the top stillen spoiler as well. .
But my engine comes 1st!

 

the engine will come like i said im waiting to get my kit installed on april 4 the greddy tt. as for a body kit i need a new fron bumer and on of my sides has a huge gash so im going with on cuz i need it. i was asking if there were any ones that you guys think look better the the others. i was thinking about go with a wide body but i dont want the car to be down that long.

 

i like lip kits. ..body kits are too much. .and kinda ugly!

 

I'd take that 4500 and buy a nice rim and tire combo.

 

i have to agree with the guys on the upkeep of the bodykits for sure! i had an rsx-s before my z33 and i had a c-west full kit on it. it was the worst mistake of my life....believe me please! even if i had all the $$$$ in the world i would never waste it on a kit again. good luck though and do what you will, it's your car bro! i like nice looking cars but anything maxed out on mods is always much more appealing to me imo.
