Mod Ideas for my Z

jtroun · 03-10-2010, 03:54 PM

I am looking for any suggestions as to rims, headers, headlights and other things I should do to my Z.

jtroun · 03-10-2010, 03:55 PM

I already have a Stillen GEN3 CAI, CBE. I also have complete stereo system and tint.

Suggest you begin reading the Tech Area of this forum. It has a lot of great info on what you are seeking.

seungklee · 03-10-2010, 04:00 PM

Since you already have Stillen CBE and CAI, get some Berk or Stillen HFC's to add more louder sound and power. Also, you can get Stillen Headers too

As for headlights, my plans when I get my Z, I'm going to change out the HID bulbs to 6000k's. You can do that and maybe, do some black housing touch-up for your headlights. Contact 180 degrees place for headlights and LED's you can do.

Get some nice wheels too lol. Those are my suggestions!

I'll be selling my Stillen headers and Berk HFCs soon if you're interested. I see you're local to me, so we wouldn't have to deal with the hassle of shipping. PM me if interested.

For more power, HFC or if you do not mind cat deletion then long tube headers. Maybe a light weight pulley with gates belt.
For style, black out headlights or color match, better HID bulbs, Volk/SSR/Enkei/Work wheels, suspension if you want. A lot of options, all depends on the path you want to travel.

I was thinking of getting some black wheels and blacking out my headlights and taillights. I am just not sure of who can work or install those things around Atlanta.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

How bout an underdrive pulley? From what I've read that is going to be my next mod.

Red370 · 03-10-2010, 07:11 PM

Here's my question, if you dont plan on going FI, why not a Cobb AP? I think bluestyle gained something like 14whp and 33 ft./lbs with a tune! thats insanity if you ask me. Not only could you pull out some stupid power, but it has valet/anti theft maps, dyno simulator, 0-60 and 1/4mile timers to boot! And I hear it comes with tetris

SophiaZ · 03-10-2010, 09:10 PM

If you got money..I'd say go for the 19'' Volk TE37's in gunmetal or matte black. Or powder coat your stockers. And since you're already going with Stillen, do the HFCs and headers. As far as the lights... paint them yourself since your really far from the 2 main shops.. Look up the DIY in this site. And maybe blacken out your fangs? That looks really good on the grey Z.
