Well its time to swipe the card again and now im stuik undecided on what I should do. I'll have roughly $1400.00 to use.

My first intention was to go for the NISMO LSD & 350evo 3.9fd. I still dont have lsd on my base model and I have heard that the gears make a nice difference for n/a so this would be a nice purchase for the Z... but when it comes to F/I, it might be difficult to catch traction? And I DO HAVE plans for F/I in the future so i have been leaning away from the gears now.

My other option maybe, was to bodykit the car, thinking about the NISMO kit, the whole v.1. Or maybe something else, nothing ricey of course, I just want the car to stand out from the rest of the Z's down here in miami, and thats hard to do! And im sure with $1400.00 i can grab a nice kit to really set my car off.

Or maybe the NISMO LSD and the rest on suspension?

im so confused right now on what I should do because im a HUGE performance guy and im always racing and running the car hard but making it look good is always nice too.

BTW im mostly stock. Stock suspension, wheels, drivetrain, tires.... lol

Just Exhaust + test pipes/ Intake

 

Want to stand out? Carbon fiber. Want to be like everyone else? Nismo V.1.

Something new? Nismo V.2 bumper.

My advice and what would I DO? - Headers + exhaust = Tune. Now youre a baller, and ready to put F/I on. Do change those hideous stock wheels/tires please. thank you.... COME again!~

 

well i think the traction would be fine if u went with the LSD, and the gears even after get F/I, but its upto u man, i also liked the idea of a body kit

 

with the new LSD are you going to add power and track the car?? If not then its a waste. Suspension is always good. But what do you use your car for. Track street or a mix of both. The body kit is your straight forward beat. The Nismo stuff is cool. But how much do you want to stand out? Are you going for a JDM, VIP,track super clean OEM look what? hey my two cents for what thats worth

You need wheels before a bodykit.

 

for the cash I would go with:

1. the slotted & drilled rotors from R1 on ebay all around $220.00 but spring for the hawk HKS pads another $160.00

2. a cold air intake or pop charger NISMO or Jim wolf you can probably get a used one here pretty reasonably $200.00

3. Motordyne five 16ths thermal plenum spacer this is supposed to be a easy 5 -7 hp $295.00 with free shipping on this site check the vendors

4. save the xtra cash & in the near future you can always get coil overs ( or hotchkiss sway bars, or eibach lowering springs) or a decent wheel tire package

5. nothing wrong with getting a bang for the bucks spent, body kits look cute but by the time you add paint & body work you are way past the $1400.00 you originally wanted to spend

6. you want to concentrate on mods that either make the Z handle better, stop better, or add overall throttle response
