I am looking into buying a used 2002 or 2003 max soon and want to do some modding to it soon after buying it. I am looking for a manual SE with leather and bose stereo to start with then this is where I am going...
1. CAI (PR or Franken)
2. SSR Comp rims 18x8.5 will they fit?
3. Front strut and rear sway bar
4. New tires...no idea what will be going on the new rims
5. Stillen body kit Aero modded to fit 2002 or 03
6. Maybe a bigger brake kit by brembo or someone
7. ..........

My question is, about how much am I looking at spending for all this after buying the car? Also am I leaving anything crucial out. Thanks alot.

frankencar isnt a cai, its referred to as a ram intake, SSR comps 18X8.5 will fit no problem, the car is probably going to run you about 20 g's, the mods look lioke its gonna cost another 7000 bucks

if you're gonna get CAI go with INGEN, FSTB (stillen, otto,obx,custommaxima) RSB (stillen) tires (micheline pilot) best tires there is.

your lookin bout i think 5-7 k
start with the small stuff first FSTB, CAI, RSB,

oh and dont forget to lower the car

I know the Franken isn't a CAI, but I like it the best out of the other ram air's. The Ingen is out because it isn't a true CAI which I feel like is a waste of money. I forgot to lower it you are right. So how much for new springs and struts? Thanks.

The modding bug is gonna hit this man big. You have only scratched the surface of what you really want.

So of this 5 to 7 grand what is the bulk of it...tires/rims and then the body kit? I guess the body kit can wait. How would you guys prioritize the list I have created?
