Hello,

I just got an 03 Car. Blue Coupe Automatic in St. Louis... and I'm ready to improve the performance.

I have about 1500 to spend on it in the next month...I'm looking for reccomendations on what to buy and WHERE to buy it (I have no idea who is reputable)??

I think I want HKS exhaust, a plenum spacer, 350z tube and a K&N?

Any help would be amazing.

THANKS!

 

unless you find some great deals i dont think you can get all that for 1500 lol

best ive seen hks for is 1399. spacers with iso thermal run for 295 i think now. ztube plus k&n should run you about 100.

hks for 1399 - jscspeed
plenum spacer - mynismo, everythingg35 - doesnt really matter. prices on plenum spacers are pretty firm..
ztube - get the stillen one. its cheaper.

are you looking to get the 5/16 or 1/2 spacer? i think therer are a few spacers for sale floating around in the marketplace

 

HKS Hi-Power exhaust costs u about 1300.. spacer = 300.. don't know about ztube/k&n but i got my ztube/popcharger for about 200

 

^^where did you find hks for 1300? im interested

 

Your car doesnt need any improvements.....

 

lol see his name? "stockguy"

of course he needs improvements (i convinced myself i NEED improvements too)

 

HA indeed, my name on all forums is Stockyguy b/c I'm a wider guy and initially wanted to be a Stockbroker. I thought it was clever at age 18.

Anywho, If you guys have any suggestions on anything else I should do. I'm up for suggestions.

Where can I get this HKS for $1300 because I'm game for that.

I was thinking 5/16 on the spacer, that way I can keep the engine cover.

I'm really new to the G so any advice would be sweet. Am I thinking along the right lines? I just came from a Camaro SS so just like Billy Madison.... I'M HERE TO LEARN!

Thanks

 

^^your mods sound like a great start. might wanna think about some high flow cats too

 

Any reccos? Do cats add to hp or just sound?

From what I've read its so tough to squeeze a significant amount of HP out of these short of supercharging or turbo.
