Message	:for a 300ZXTT starting stock. :-D :Pop Charger (JWT) :ECU (JWT) :Catback Exhaust (I'm assuming ~$900-$1000) :Springs (Eibach) :Shocks (KYB) :Sways (ST or Stillen) :Stock-sized Brake kit(pads, fluid, lines & rotors) :Rims & Tires (allowing ~$2000) :Depending on deals you get, you may be a couple hundred shy of the $5000 mark so that would allow you to pick up the little stuff, like: 300degree BMC brace, 300degree camber kit, boost gauge, etc. :There, DONE! That'll hold you for a while. :) Thank you Jay we are on the same page when it comes to uprading stock Z. No boost gauge for me sorry, looks good though :) :
