say you have $5k, what would you do?
1. get super charge kit
2. spend little more and get turbo charge kit
3. change exhaust,suspension, wheels, etc..

I'm really considering right now so please.. I'd appreciate yall opinions!!! .

08 G37S 5AT sports/premium/Injen CAI

 

First I'd learn what 5k would get you. That wouldn't cover any of the options you listed.

 

it will buy the GTM SC kit but not install. You can do Rims and tires and eibachs for about 3k. I have vossens and paid 2100 with nittos 555. eibachs are about 250 shipped. still have money about 2.5k for headlights, lip kit, exhaust.
MXP catback 1700 shipped maybe
Stillen Gen 3s for 509

Just some food for thought

 

No offense, but by your post it looks like you're not ready for 1 or 2

Get some wheels/tires and a drop, then if you have money left over sways or GT spec braces

 

supercharge/turbo is one of the last things you would do. get the basics done first; wheels, suspension,intake/headers/exhaust. you would also need to get tuned after those engine mods.

a good wheel set up will run you almost 5K.
-forged wheels 3-4K
-summer tires $700+
-mount and balancing, probably $100.
-lug nuts $50+

 

1) 5k is not enough

2) 5k is definitely not enough

3) 5K will only get you 2 of the 3 things.

Wheels and drop must come together. Then maybe exhaust if there's enough left over.

Hit up the market place! You can pick up a decent set of wheels, exhaust, and C/O for around 5k easily. Just be patient and search diligently if you want to save some $$$!

 

I'd go with 3. I am not building a race car, actually, the first thing on my do list is a sub-woofer .
then I might look into exhaust and stuff. not swapping wheels until next (first) tire change, but I might consider those Impul springs.

 

How reliable is the G's motor for supercharging? Probably not because of the compression ratio. Now if you have the money for pistons and other engine work then it would be great.

 

lol you're kidding right?

 

let me beat the dead horse some more and say you can only BARELY do choice 3 with $5K. Depending on what brand/parts you get.

 

Choice 3 is the only option you have at this moment. Depending the brands you select, it will be enough to cover wheels, suspension and exhaust. If I could go back, I would've spent more on wheels(Vossen, Iforged, Works) and suspension (Coils instead of springs) right away. I scaled back and though I like my current set-up, I can't help but wish I had a different set of wheels and coils

 

If your bone stock #1 is drop, then just what you want next...sound, wheels, bracing, exhaust...its all personal preference. Oh and tint, definitely tint.

 

I know it's not enough money for everything.. but if I change wheels I should change suspension too. I'm thinking to get wheels for advan RS and suspension for HKS III. I'm started thinking..

1.go with cheep wheels with HKS suspension and get HKS HI power exhaust
2.go with eibach pro front tanabe rear and get advan RS wheels
3.go with wheels and suspension, get ehxaust later.

 

Thanks!! but I guess you're right.. since my car is 5AT I guess it's stupid to put super or turbo.. thanks for your opinion
