Nothing to do, but...
Well since i'm over seas right now for the next month, i have nothing to do but order parts and wait till i get home to put them on. I know there is a ton of threads with this kind of stuff but every month i'm sure new things are showing up. I'm looking for cheep, EASY do it yourself type items. New car, haven't even seen it yet. Just sitting here dreaming as of right now!! What do you guys got for the first few things i should get done??
By cheap what exactly do you mean? Clarifying that would probably get you some more input. I'd say from what I've heard, the JWT pop chargers can be a DIY. Not bad in price either. Tints/overlays. People seem to be happy with the Berk HFCs too. The Stillen splitter is cool, group buy coming up supposedly in August though.
First thing I would do is save up for some rims. Granted they wont be CHEAP but, there are some nice rims you can get for a decent price.
Next up I would drop it. Springs aren't expensive (usually around $250) and they arne't too hard to install either. (I'd recommend getting someone to do it. Probably cost you around $125)
Other mods that are cheap and easy-
De-badge your car- https://www.myg37.com/forums/d-i-y-installations-modifications/177264-debadging-and-rebadging.html
Switch out your car bulbs for LEDs- https://www.myg37.com/forums/body-interior-exterior-lighting/175135-a-few-lighting-mods-lotsa-pics.html
Clearing out your headlights- https://www.myg37.com/forums/d-i-y-installations-modifications/176944-removing-amber-headlight-baking.html
If you want performance mods i'd go with the basic intake/exhaust setup. People have had good performance increases with HFCs, but they might be a little costly.
Take a look at the DIY section. There are tons of mods you can do yourself and they wont break the bank. Gluck

yea.... unless you want to spend all the time compressing the front springs.. dangerous to say the least but also a PITA. get someone else to do it with a spring compressor and not the ones from autozone that you rent. those still take forever.
you could. paint your grill paint your headlights add overlays change all bulbs. add a bunch of performance parts but we need more info as to what your looking for $$ wise and suspension or power mods

The de-badging looks hot. I think im about to order the Skyline one here in a few. LED's are a good idea and they are cheep. And when i said cheep i mean im not looking to spend tons of money just yet on making my girl super fast. But i want her to turn heads with both looks and sound for now. Soon i just might have to get the TT that fire boy has
. But considering i havent even seen my car in person let alone gotten behind the wheel ill wait on that one.

If you're looking for cheap and DIY, definitely the JWT intakes, and Tanabe axle-back. Since yo still haven't driver her yet, you still might wanna keep that stock exhaust tone but beef it up and that's what the Tanabe exhaust does.
