mnjarvis Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Hey guys, Firstly just wanted to say love the site, has been very helpful so far. I was looking at spending around £2000 on my shiny Z to spruce her up a little bit and was after some suggestions. My days of loud bodykits and massive spoilers are behing me so was looking at some subtle mods. I have already got some 20" chrome wheels (bit of a contadiction to the last sentence!) and was looking at an OEM spoiler, a stubby and LED headlights but other than that am completely open to inspiration!

Ruddles Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Keep the £2000, save up and put it toward a supercharger! Keep all else the same and it's subtle...voila! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 With £2000 for subtile mods, I would see if Paul would be willing to make a set of custom headlights for you and also a bulge bonnet you see on the later model Z. Then perhaps a headunit with iPod connectivity. Then with whatever is leftover, go on a roadtrip and enjoy why you bought the car in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbramble Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 JWT pop charger Motordyne Plenum spacer silenced de-cats Motordyne XYZ Y pipe with race cat Uprev reflash under £2000 (Abbey even do a package price for most of it) and it will give you an amazing but not over loud noise and a reasonable power gain. Probably close to 300bhp on a DE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggy Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I'd say coilovers personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 a nice exhuast and if you want OEM look spoiler for your ragtop you'll need to go here http://www.spoilerdepot.com/spoilers/20 ... tem-02137/ as the oem from a coupe wont fit as well, (different curve) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 If the goal is to make it look pretty then spend the lot on a full correction with Envy Valeting or similar and then keeping it topped up. It'll make the car look a lot better than anything else will IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Rear Led lights have been one of my favourite easiest mods... Exhaust is a fave as well. Unless there is something you really really want i'd save your dollar, the car looks nice as is tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Don't bother with chasing ponies. Do nice wheels and drop it This, this is always the right answer. Coilovers & some proper wheels. Wheels are the most important styling mod IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
