Hey guys I just wanted to get some opinions on what mods I should do with $1200 to $1500. The only mod I have is a Popcharger. I'm new to modding the Z. I can use all the help I can get. Thanks

So what I was thinking was maybe the Crawford headers.
Or maybe the plenum and sways or flywheel. Let me know what you think.

 

Save it for some Twins. I wish I had done that in the first place

 

I'd go for a exhaust, Invidia, Borla, Greddy Evo2, etc. And with some change, I'd go for HF cat, and then a UR crank pully.

 

Im with him. UR pulleys, Cats or test pipes and a nice exhaust.

 

I was just reading up on the pulley and I think thats one of the things I want to do.

Also I've been looking at the Injen exhaust and Crawford cats.

Do you guys think thats better than just the Crawford Headers?

 

Give it to me so I can add it to my downpayment for the Z.

 

I think I would go pulley, plenum, ECU if that can all be done for that price.

 

once you saved up for your twins start saving for the new VQ+build up

running a turbo isn't just as cheap as the kit...

 

Honestly, don't waste your money on a CAI. The Popcharger you have is probably the best bang for your buck because its so cheap to buy (and you already have it!).

For $1500, you could get a nice suspension setup and part of money towards some better rubber. Or you could get a plenum and headers for go fast-ness.

 

With $1500 right now, I would get suspension and a body kit. In your position, I would probably go with suspension and exhaust.

 

Which suspensions should I look at?

 

Buy stock in Ebay.

 

I would go suspension or brakes.

 

If you are going to do the suspension right the first time it will cost more than $1500. You can go with a basic coilover set but then your factory aligment specs will be off. You will need front arms and camber kits in order to make the adjustments after your car is lowered. If you don't get the arms and camber set you will wear out your tires much faster. You can pay now or pay later. I have the tein basic coilover and front and back stillen sway bars waiting to be installed. I am going to go with the 350evo front arms and the spc camber set for the rear. My suspension has been put on hold to swap out my vortech for a greddy tt. Here's what the suspension will end up costing.

Tein Basic $750
Stillen bars $310
350evo arms $850
spc camber kit $220
Installation $300
a good alignment $200
Total $2630

 

i woudl do a flywheel or rear end gears if your looking for performance

 

This has been covered two to three times already in the last month or so. Do a search, one of them was about $2000, another was either $1500 or $1000. All good advice on those threads.

 

+1 for the rear end gears. My next $1500.00 bucks is going to 350evo for a 3.9 final drive.
