You live right next to a great track (Barber). Get an oil cooler and hit the track!

not quite $600... he's more in the top speed/cnt range there

top speed exhaust

For looks:

I'd do springs and spacers to lower it. I'd also do headlight bulbs, dome/map
lights, license plate, etc.
OR
Get a CF hood, and vinyl/paint the roof glossy black with limo tint around
making it look like 1 piece.

For performance:

I'd address the engine temp issue first via oil cooler.
OR
If not, then I'd do intake, ss brakelines and brake oil, if budget allows I would
add the performance brake pads as well.

For safety:

I'd hold off so I can get grippier tires like Bridgestone RE11 or Michelin PSS.

No safety... only speed

Hmm, on a Nismo I would do:

- Springs, Spacers and new shift knob for $630

Telephone · 08-28-2012, 01:20 PM

Clear bra

One_Quick_Z · 08-28-2012, 01:31 PM

Intakes and test pipes.

Fuel up your Z, take the lady out to a nice restaurant and save the rest.

KingJoseph · 08-28-2012, 03:51 PM

I'm surprised HFCs or test pipes hasn't been the #1 response.

sfearl1 · 08-28-2012, 03:58 PM

^^ agreed. Test pipes, drop-in filters and post maf tubes. Great bang for buck combo... you get a louder exhaust, increased throttle response, and a few added HP's.
