Next Mods

I've got about $5000 to spend right now. What kind of mods should I get? I'm looking for a street car.

Current mods: DP, MP, intake, exhaust, fluidyne radiator, ast, PFC, FMIC.
(I think that's everything, just BPU)

I was thinking a tires, new fuel setup, hks ignition amp and map sensor, tuning, and maybe coilovers. What do you guys think? I'm open to suggestions.

PS: No big turbo kits yet. I can't afford that at the moment

If I were you I wouldn't get an ignition amp yet. Upgrade the fuel, up the boost a little. If you do that you're gonna need a new clutch, do the flywheel also. Get some coilovers.

I forgot to mention. I've got the nipendenso fuel pump and tuning for 12 psi on the stockers.

I guess I'll get coilovers, probably toe links and trailing arms, and tires.

Thanks for your input.

Coilovers are 100% pointless for street driving.

Why do you want to drop 5k just like that? What does your car not do that you want it to do?

Depending on other factors, I would do the following:

*upgraded injectors/fuel system to allow 14-15 psi
*clutch and flywheel
*bigger proper fitting wheels with GOOD tires
*Eibachs with stock shocks
