The Jonnie Fraz brace.Best upgrade I've done so far. Many other people will agree with me. IT ROCKS.

Hmmm, You could get some meters. water temperature or oil temp or pressure.

Maybe a steering wheel and hub.MAYBE a bucket seat, but that isn't much money.

Z32 front brake conversion. It can be done for 300 bucks if you know where to look and buy the parts you need. Judging from you profile 95 240sx SE you should be able to do it no problem.

If your planning on turboing your car in the future a walbro fuel pump would be nice. Some good strut bars ( no ebay crap), a jonnie fraz brace is also a good idea.

Membership to tripple A is a great idea. It has helped me out and my friends on many occasions.

There are so many things you can get, just think what you want your car to be like in the future and that will help narrow down your choices a lot.

You could get yourself a new set of Z rated tires. That's always a solid investment, unless your gonna buy new wheels in the not so distant future. BTW don't listen to these jello azz ninja's. I wish my parents would have been in a good financial position when I was your age, just be glad you guys are doing good.

oh wait you said cheap, if you want cheap get some mb wheels or something along those lines at americas tire co, they make decent offset for choice and price.. 17x9+17 i believe they have also 18x9+17 looks ok if you have widebody your gonna have to run about a 25mm spacer or more sometimes
