Hey guys, thought I would introduce myself.

I just bought a 35th Anniversary Z with only 28k miles on it. I am in love with the car and hope to make some minor modifications to the car. Anyone recommend a particular mod for my first one? I'm not knowledgeable about modding cars at all and I'm only a grad student so the most bang-for-the-buck suggestions would be appreciated!

 

First mod air intake.

 

welcome to the site. One of my favorite <$500 mods is my 5/16 plenum spacer. JWT popcharger makes for a nice intake tone. High flow cats or test pipes would be a nice place to start as well.

 

Nothing will do much unless you plan to go forced induction. So why not start with some nice springs and shocks or coil-overs and maybe some wheels.

 

Welcome to the forums! Save up and get some 3.9 or 4.08 gears...you won't regret it!

 

Welcome to the community. Stopping and good tyres are always a start.

 

Welcome.

+1 on saving for FI.
but you could always do coils or springs, with rims

 

Do you guys just buy the parts and take it to a shop for installation? Anyone near Boca Raton, FL know a good local shop?

 

welcome

bad idea well aleast with the ppl i know they hate when ppl bring parts in. because they get the parts for cheap and charge u full price. so they make no money when you bring your parts in.

 

they dont make any money off of their hourly labor rate? haha..
