next mod?

I'm doing an opinion poll on what my next mod should be.

I'm kinda torn right now, because I want to get cefiros, but I feel I could put that money towards a MEVI or 00VI. Then again I want to stiffen up the handling more, and have been looking into either a rear sway bar and/or subframe connectors (I haven't heard a whole lot of input on these yet).

Anyone have any other ideas? Keep in mind that my budget is getting tight... and no I don't have enough money for a turbo

Here's a list of some of my current mods:

Performance/Handling -

Jim Wolf Technology ECU
Cold Air Intake
K&N Air Filter
Warpspeed Y-Pipe
Custom 2.5" Catback
DEI Exhaust Wrap
Magnaflow Muffler
Front Strut Bar
Tein S-Tech Lowering Springs
KYB AGX Adjustable Shocks/Struts


That's the condensed list... everything else I have is on my cardomain page

Thanks for the input

I'd say smoked Cefiros. I'm a little biased cause I plan on buying these for my Maxima once I save up some cash! I think they'd look great on your Maxima since its black and the wheels are dark too. That would be the best choice if you want a visible mod that other people will be able to see.

That's easy for you to say with those sick looking headlights.... lol

I suppose you would be willing to help on the install then if I got a MEVI/00VI? It might be a while before I could even afford it...

your car looks sick, and already has a drop, give it some more power to that sexy sleeper

but you usually when i mod my car its, performance, then looks then performance the looks. understand? i try to even it out a little. the cefieros would really look nice as well. but the cefieros wont give you something youll love like added top end power

Get a mevi then Cefiros. Since Cefiros are much cheaper you can get them later. Get the most expensive things first.
One thing if your headlights were cracked...

Yea id help out, it'd give me some experience so when I do VI, I'll be able to do it without trouble. Your car should be easy to do.

Trust me you want that top end, 40 extra hp at 6500rpm sounds like a nice boost of power if you ask me....

i say sway bar. It's cheap, and since your car is already dropped it'll make a huge difference as far as balancing the car out in turns. I just put one on and was amazed by it. Seriously, its not in my head, a couple of my buddies tried it before and after and said the same thing. Sway bar does wonders for understeer.

And its cheap and really easy to install
