Decisions have been made FINALLY!

I installed the Z-Tube and K&N last week and have been trying to figure out what to do with the rest of the car with my 10k budget and here is what the plan is.
  • HKS Hi Power Exhaust
  • MotorDyne 5/16 MREV Plus
  • Tein D-Specs w/ H&R Sport Springs
  • 20x8.5 and 20x10 IForged Rev (Black Powdercoated Centers)
  • Toyo T1R 245/35/20 and 275/30/20
This puts me about 2500 under budget

with 10k, i would do the following (not saying ur list is wrong/bad)

- Nice wheels/tires - $4500

- Tein Flex w/edfc - $2000

- Tint - $250

- Debadge - Free

- HKS - $1500

- DvD/Navi Mod - 500

- Nice aftermarket front lip of your choice - $500

That would be a GREAT start to your already nice G.


Or, forget everything and drop a Single Turbo in that Puppy!!!

Well I am goign with a nice set of wheels tires in that price range, I am going with the Dspecs since i do not track my car and the drop drom the H&R is perfect with 20's I wont need to adjust the ride height so no real reason to go with coilvers.

I already debadged the G35 and put limo tint on. I may go with the OEm front lip it will depend on how I feel after my car is lowered

For $10K you are not going for FI? My lord, used Vortech/APS/Greddy kits are flooded over on www.my350z.com. If you're not going FI and want appearance, there are still kits and wheels and all kinds of stuff used here and over at my350.

I learned that the hard way...most of the time you can get used items that are as good as new for way less than MSRP.

10k...Props to you for being able to do it. I see nothing wrong with your game plan. Hell, I wish I had the 10k to spend at will. Post pics after you get everything done.

I have modded just about every car I have owned. You do lose $$ but you lose money when you buy a car anyways. I will get back atleast 50% of it so I am happy with that
