Can someone tell me where is the best place to find the 5/16 plenum spacer. I have an injen cold air and a stillen exhaust already installed. What other small mods can I do to boost my performance?

I got my 5/16" spacer kit from a member in the Marketplace forum. It was brand new, still in its original packaging, and I paid like $60 less than retail. You can find good deals like this around the Marketplace; that's a haven for us G owners who are looking for quality parts from other members and save some money too.

get in the marketplace and look around for 350z or coupe shocks, and either revised z springs all around or z front springs and rear coupe springs. You can get a whole setup from anywhere between 2 and 300

Get the lowering springs. I would recommend getting 350z spring for the front and coup springs for the rear.

oh I also got the clear corners on and wow does it make the car look so much better. funny how a small thing like that can make such a big improvement.
(ignore all the dings and scratches on the bumper, I bought the car used and am planning to get a Nismo Aero kit sometime in the winter when I have a bit more money to spend ^^ until then I'll probably grab myself a tin of touch up paint.)

Revised Z suspension and Hotchkis Sway bars are a fantastic combo. Never had anything else so I can't offer a comparison but the combo really works for me. I have the 1/2" spacer so it might be a little different but at WOT it is like lekker_droom said, there is a nice bump in performance that is very noticeable. So far I have really like all of my mods except I should have researched end links more before getting the sway bars.
