I paid just over 200 a piece for my nitto NT05 tires... I love them , a noticable upgrade over stock rubber... $900ish dollars.

I would still reccomend an oil cooler if you are going to be driving aggressive on the street.. The lower your oil temps, the better for your motor... I have ModShacks's DIY Oil Cooler and it works wonders...

H&R wheel spacers to me transform the stance of the 370z into a much meaner looking machine... 25 in the rear 20 in the front... Couple that with Eibach or H&R springs for a nice drop and you substantialy improve the look/stance of the car... Those things could be done for around $600 dollars as long as you install spacers yourself and pay to have the springs installed... To do it right you would need atleast rear camber kit and an alignment, so all said and done prob $1000.

Between the new tires (NT05s) and the drop/spacers your car will look way more aggressive.. I love the tread on the nt05s.

Thats about 2,000....

Now with the last 1k I would say get HFC or Test Pipes... Test pipes with my stillen exhaust sounds really good limited rasp and ZERO drone on the HWY.
That would leave you with enough for intakes or an invidia exhaust. Invidia with test pipes is a nice combo. Ive heard a 40th with ERZ res test pipes and the invidia and its sounds very clean , I was very impressed with the sound.

So for 3k I would say get the Spacers, Springs, Nitto NT05s, Camber Arms and alignment, Test Pipes and Invidia Exhaust..

Than next sring shoot for an oil cooler, Intakes, and a tune.
