What should my next mod be?
Here's what I got and what I think about it:
Engine:
Place Racing Cold Air Intake
Budget Y-Pipe
Resonated Race Pipe
Custom Piping
Magnaflow Muffler
Under Drive Pulley
Always need more power. Since I'm a 99, not sure if I want the MEVI without the higher redline. What other choices do I have? Forced Induction is all I can think of… oh, and the shorty headers
Suspension:
H&R coil springs
KYB AGX struts
Addco rear sway bar
Front strut tower brace
Energy Suspension bushings
18" Mille Miglia Evo 5 wheels
235/40 Bridgestone Potenza S-03 tires
I think I might like SFC's, but a little worried about ground clearance. The roads suck up here in WI. Overall I'm pretty happy with the suspension set-up, but now I'm addicted and can't stop moding.
Brakes and tranny:
B&M short throw shifter
Brembo slotted/cross drilled rotors
Axxis Metal Master brake pads
Technafit SS Braided Lines
I would like a LSD, but don't feel like forking out over a grand for one. I plan to get redline gear oil yet this fall. I'm happy with my brakes, but who could argue with a set of brembos. A clutch might be a common recommendation. Id like more power first though.
Beautification:
Stillen body kit
Clear corner lenses
Clear turn signal tail lights
Sylvania Silverstar 9004 bulbs
Hella supertone horns
Stillen battery tie down
Nismo Oil Cap
OBX titanium pedals
Nismo Valve Stem Covers
Custom Grill Mesh
Enough with the fancy sh*t already… well, maybe window tint…
So what do you guys think I should throw money I don't have at?

It all depends on what you want to start out first, if you prefer looks over power, go w/ the cosmetic mods, if you want performance over looks, go w/ performance mods ... The roads are as bad here in MI so suspension-wise I'd probably stick w/ something that gives you the best of both worlds (handling and comfort) w/o feeling every single bump ... all I can say is do whatever you feel is right and start out whereever you want to start, but if it were me I'd start out small first then work my way up
Good luck on your mods and let us know how everything goes

the seats should cut close to 50 pounds off.
Lightweight rims rule !
Is a dynobat a drycell like an optima? yes it weighs 13.5 pounds. and is the same just cost a bit more 135 i believe
