I would say front and rear camber kits along with some nice coilovers such as Stance. Should have money left to get a good alignment and maybe even a corner balance. The only way to go for sure for 1700 bucks!!

I went with Tanabe GF210 springs, Tanabe Sways, and a GT Spec Ladder Brace. All that together cost me about $650 (I have some friends who sold me some of it at their cost). I would recommend that and all the other GT Spec braces in addition if you want to see a huge difference in the handling of the car. The thing just looks mean and handles WAY better than stock (almost no body roll compared to quite a bit stock if you really toss the car). I still need the rest of the GT Spec braces but I can't get ahold of NoahBurntZ, . I just went to an auto cross a couple weeks ago and the thing tore through it.

$1700 wont buy you nice wheels. I would personally go with a nice set of coilovers and maybe a small lip.

Thanks for all the replies guys, im starting to lean more towards purchasing some suspension mods, there are some great deals on Stance and BC Coilovers, and i should have enough money left over for camber kits if i shop smart. Do you guys think coilovers are straight for a stock 06 z or should i go with shocks/struts/springs and some sway bars?

I've gone with both set-ups on past cars and coilovers are definitely better. Think about it, it's you putting suspension pieces together, versus a company that has done it for you with research plus adjustability to fine tune. just my .02
