How about getting one of these...

I got better tires and an oil cooler after fixing the stereo. If I didn't go to the track now and then I'd have purchased Stillen G3s and then ART pipes.

My stock suspension is a bit different though and I'm halfway done with the brakes anyways (I consider it maintenance rather than play money and budget it differently), so that may be more important to you. Swift makes great springs if you want the car a bit lower.

Spending a bit more to get extra sticky rubber is a lot of fun too if tires are coming up soon.

Exhaust.

Thanks for all the cool response's don't know yet what to do. the Stillen G3s seems like solid advice. noticed from some forums searches if there not installed right they can be a big pain and through all kinds of codes.
run rich etc. exhaust might be a better idea would love to improve the exhaust
note on the 370. even the 350 sounded better....

I agree, the car is too quiet stock. A nice CBE really changes the soul of the car.

Suprisingly I like the exhaust sound on our Zs, sounds especially good around 4-5.5k rpms. :tup:

I thought the same thing in the beginning. I even told myself that I was probably never going to replace the exhaust. I still agree that the stock exhaust sounds nice when you get on it, but after getting my new exhaust, it's amazing.

I don't doubt it, but remember 370zs are pure sex hot loud and rough. :roflpuke2:

I would invest it into the market.. Its had a dip that it hasn't recovered from in the last few days. Its a good time to buy. I suspect you could make 10% return this year

:p

Hahah, yeah where is that guy to chime in?!

If intake and exhaust are something you will choose to do first? Start with the exhaust and move to the front of the car. You will get the best gains by starting at the exhaust, IF you invest in a good exhaust.

My only reason why I suggested on the brakes and suspension first is because once you feel the incredible amount of neutrality gained off of the Z for such a low cost? You will truely be amazed. One exhaust or an intake without the other will not give you the increase in power you will hope for.

Adding the brake mods I recommended will give the car a supercar feel when stopping along with supercar type handling. Those swifts really improve handling by a generous margin. The Z has plenty of go. But when you do make an improvement their? You are going to want to do intake and exhaust or intake exhaust, HFC or test pipes ALL AT ONCE so you can actuallly feel like you made some real power gains.

What "good" exhaust would u recommend? I've been hearing a lotta good things about the Stillen.

LMBmikeZ 03-08-2012 08:08 AM

IMO top 2 choices would be either FI or HKS.

However I would start with the braking system like unknown mentioned.
