Default $1200 to spend on the 370z

Ok, I have $1200 to spend, Where do I get the most bang for the buck? Intakes and H pipes or catbacks?

Put that $1200 to your car payment(assuming you still owe on it), it'll go toward your principle and you'll be done paying your car off faster... Once done, you can buy better quality items

You could always buy one spare factory wheel from the dealership.

Yes, but bumped by OP, so now that $1200 has blossomed into $1201?

Ah, the magic of compounding interest!

this thread won't die, so I'll just come in and say buy some r888 tires. Get some spares for daily later.
The amount of performance on the track you unlock by getting better tires is better than any brake mod or suspension mod alone. At least that's what I found in my z33.
