I have a 2008 versa sl (with the sport kit). I have just purchased 18's, Apex springs, and a Thule areo rack and fairing. The million dollar question is this what else should I do? I was thinking sway bar first? then? advice?

Nice mods so far, are you looking for performance mods or cosmetic look?Also how much do you think you want to spend and who ( hopefully you saves cash) will be doing the install work.

Based on the mods you have done I would opt for the Pulley to add a little extra horsepower since 18" wheels and roof racks rob some power due to weight and drag.

The pulley is available here http://shop.microimageonline.c...0.htm

I'm thinking to make it handle better and improve the looks a little. I can do all the work myself so that will save money and have lots of friends in the parts biz so they cost next to nothing.Does a pulley help much on the 1.8?

From whats been said the pulley gives another 5-7hp (ask Superskunk or #1 Tango) which is really good for the price, but handling wise front lower brace, bigger roll bar, and rear upper tower bar will do the trick on the 18x.

If you can a coilover system would be nice to with some adjustable shocks for street/road course/race.
