Depends on what you want; Apearance or performance. If I was you, i would save for suspension, buy a front lip, or Intake/header.

Definitely the best bang for you buck......your cheap buck.

But you didn't say whether you want performance or appearance?

Why is that? Does it really do that much of a difference?

it makes a huge difference in handling. By doing some number crunching, it is more than 800% stiffer than a stock gsr rear sway bar.

uhm.. i think the stock brakes can handle the power he has right now. i would do the brakes later when he really needs it. i would start with suspension first and then to the engine, but that's just me.

definately do this. best bang for your buck and you'll notice the difference in the way your car handles. this is a must for a modified teg.

, this is the best performance mod by far. you can chop tenths like crazy with some practice. each time i've hit the track i've gotten better and better.

You could also lose some weight in your teg, gut some **** you don't need. Power Steering and AC could go if your real serious. It'll free up some weight and a bit of power with the ps. Not much but its there.

An intake/hi-flow cat/exhaust....save up a bit more and get the jdm 4-1 header and you'll have a nice free flowing exhaust for future mods.

this would be the biggest waste of money i could think of.
with 300 you should get an ebay short ram intake, an itr swaybar, and a custom catback exhaust

the JDM ITR 4-1 header would be your best bet. $275 and free shipping is the deal i found. You can also get the ITR Sway Bar and moutning kit for under $125
