Just got my Stillen bucks ($75). What do you guys think my next mod should be? I dont want to spend too much, and sorry Im not dropping the car! lol

I was leaning towards the pully, sway bar, or hood dampers...

FYI already have the lip and trunk spoiler from Stillen.

Thanks, Joe.

not in my area lol my area its all straights or a 90 degree angle turn at a stop light or stop sign, which if you dont make a complete stop theres cops hiding in the bushes to give you tickets lol for me, straight line performance is way better then handling.... and to the op, everyone has said the pulley is amazing so i'd go with that.... you need to replace belts at 30k miles anyway... may as well buy a nice new pulley and belt lol

Sway bar hands down! But honestly, I DID NOT want to drop mine. But I ended up doing it and to be completely honest, Its the best thing I have done yet. I never have to worry about hitting anything because It sits and a perfect level. I even have the Fascia. Do It, you wont regret it!

I understand what your saying but look where you live compared to me (MA). During the winter I'll be shoveling snow and the potholes can be rediculous here. I also hear it can put a beaten on your suspension over time. Trust me, if I didnt live in MA I would prob be getting them. Then again...I prob would have a 350Z that I can drive year round instead of the a/c.

Would anyone mind explaining to a mod noob the different affects I would get between a rear sway bar and front strut bar? From what I can see from the Stillen site is the rear helps body roll, the front helps stearing and braking. What differences will I feel with either of these? Just trying to figure out which one would be more worth buying. Thanks!
