Wheels/tires, lowering springs and an alignment would take up most of it.

Maybe CAI after that.

I would love to get new front and back bumpers... I hate the styling of the non sport package. Plus, I have a few scratches and dent's on the rear.

CAI, and the best tires I can get. Maybe a CD/MP3 deck instead of the straight CD I've got.

Depending on what's left, either some coil overs or sway bars. Whichever is cheaper.

and a GPS unit

What to do for around $1500.00

BrakingSteel Braided Brake Lines (Harder Pedal)Slotted/Drilled Rotors (Stillen)

Handling,Strut Bar (DC)Lowering Springs (Tanabe)

Performance,Intake (Fujita)Exhaust (Stillen)

Then later down the road Rims/Tires....Areo improvements etc. but the above will absolutely transform the Versa as you know it now, immediately.

True that! I have everything on that list except the braided brake lines.

Tanabe coil-over setup and the chassis brace setup from micro image and an upper strut tower brace if the money was left over for it. I think all that will be my initial set of performance modifications when I start modding my Versa.

#1 - Window Tint#2 - Stereo head unit w/ipod and bluetooth#3 - pay down the loan

if i wasn't concerned with the warranty:

#3 - lowering springs#4 - braces for the body

Being a daily driver I feel these would be the best places to spend the money.
