Modding... where to start?
 

Reading more and more of this forum and it's starting to get overwhelming. I think I want it all :-)
I've got a 2015 base with a rear deck spoiler. Splash guards are going on next week. My know-how is limited but I'm willing to learn. What next that's not too complicated and overly expensive?
TIA

Exhaust ! open that growl up

id start with drop in air filters and post maf tubes.... cheap and comparable gains to a CAI
id recommend AFE, cosworth, as they are dry....i dont recommend K&N to anyone, ever.


Do you want to start with looks or power?

GTR Start button for at least 5hp :icon17:

Theres my more paranoid version DiY.

Or another members easier version that you need to be a little careful with.

We do have an extensive DiY section with many things covered that you could do yourself if you have the tools and time and some help.

:iagree:

GTR start button very easy and affordable. GL!

My first mod was K&N drop ins.... :)

Performance before appearance :P

At least in my opinion...

I am planning on doing the stillen intakes, then catback exhaust, with HFC here in the future and in that order. Then maybe a 1" drop with springs and nice shocks?

Honestly, I've always just taken cars to dealerships and not thought much about it. I'd like to become much more acquainted with this car. I'm looking to start with simple things that I can do. IOW, I don't want to start something that's complicated and become discouraged. Combination of looks/power mods of course!

In that case, Id say get some drop in filters from AFE or cosworth. Just pop in and out of your airbox.... 2 mins tops for this mod and its proven to give 5-7 horsepower:tup: Once you feel a little more comfortable...POST maf tubes

The GTR start button is also really easy for interior upgrade and looks great...
flat head screw driver, pop out the button, disconnect old one and insert GTR start button, and connect! **On my list to do**

exterior id say get the bluebat rear valence overlay...really changes the booty of the car. The rear valence is the outlined part of the back bumper above the exhaust tips...Our car sare white and blacking that out looks great

I highly recommend IF there are local Z meet n greets? To attend

This will give you in person exposure to members mods and pick up some tips as well meet pretty cool people.

The correct answer is always suspension but it is a little pricier than some of the basic breather mods.

Real question for you OP is what do you want out of the car? show car, weekend fun car, autox/track car, etc.?

It's my DD. I don't anticipate showing and have no plans to put it on a track but I reserve the right to change my mind :icon17:
I want it to look nice, a little different than every other stock Z on the road and to the degree that I can, maximize the performance for the most enjoyable ride possible.

I'd also suggest a Catback first. Makes the car sound amazing.

I see you are in NJ. Check out one of our upcoming meets. Looking at stuff online is one thing but seeing a bunch of modded Z's in person really helps you when it comes to making very expensive decisions.

Based on that I'd say an eibach front sway bar, a set lowering springs, camber arms/toebolts if needed to correct the alignment, and maybe a set of spacers if you're into the flush look.

Appearance:

front splitter (stillen)
headlights(http://www.the370z.com/body-interior...er-2011-a.html)
window tint (3m)
shift knob (nismo or TT)
clear bra!!!!!!
Plastidip!!!!!!!!

performance:

Diff
lowering springs
ss brake lines
Z1 400 hp kit
stillen gen 3 CAI
lighter clutch/flywheel

most do fixes!

steering lock cb pull
Tune (put in a few fun maps like: valet, kill switch, 94 vrs 91 pump gas...)
increase camber to OEM max (2degrees?)
DOT 4 brake fluid
stronger hatch springs
hatch weight removal
Dynamat in hatch area

hulagirl- a tad expensive but an easy mod that will for sure work properly is getting nismo wheels with nismo size tires. no need to lower your ride. ur ride will not only look nice, it will ride properly too.
