What types of mods are you considering, performance, exterior, interior, audio?

Here's my list of things to do for under $1000.

- 350Z springs with Tokico D-Specs, much cheaper than coils and gives a decent drop.

- Z-tube for a little more induction noise and slightly better throttle response (I'll have one for sale this weekend)

- If you have an 03-04, get a coupe midpipe. If you have an 05-06, get an 03-04 rear muffler. Decent sound for a good price.

- Popcharger/similar air intakes are generally a waste; the stock airboxes are pretty good.

I shop for the best deals and mod on a very tight budget.
Be my guest to steal ideas from my build thread (located in my sig)

The best bang for you buck IMO would be plenum spacer, sway bars, springs, test pipes, and 3.5 vlsd pumpkin. Look for used parts and you'll be right around $1K.
