Paid off! Time to Mod?

Title explains it all! Car is paid off which will free up some cash. I have been looking at modifying the car a bit to make it more "my own".

Title explains it all! Car is paid off which will free up some cash. I have been looking at modifying the car a bit to make it more "my own". The car already has a K&N intake and INjen exhaust. Looking at better engine mounts at this point to help get the power to the ground. Has anyone tried the Drop engineering mounts? They show to be on sale for $160 for the entire set.

Nissan Engine Mounts

Are there any other mounts I am missing besides the three Drop offers?

The drop ones suck. They fall apart. Go with the Z1 mounts. Although, that is really far down the list of mods. You've got the intake and exhaust. Now get test pipes and a tune. Springs, camber kit and sway bars. Gears and a better diff. Then start thinking about motor mounts.
