If you had..

If you had a stock RX8 and a 1000 dollars (That was restricted to the car), what kind of mods would you buy? Both Performance and body work. My uncle opened up an auto shop and is giving me 1000 dollars in credit to buy mods. My 8 is still in stock form (No clear corners etc.)
Thanks! I was thinking of msbodykit replica but afraid it wont fit, or maybe the HKS exhaust, etc.

$1000 won't get you much more than an intake and exhaust, both of which will do diddly for performance. enjoy

if you are into performance, get some nice suspension upgrades, and sway bars.

For the 8, I would get the autobahn(sp?) front end, and have it painted. That would take most the money, maybe leaving enough for the clear corners.

If you want to go REALLY fast, put the $1000 down on that new Kawasaki ZX-14
