What would you do with $4k?

Wheels? Stroker? Suspension? Carbon lip/trunk/hood? Alky? Something nice for the wife? There's all kinds of things out there. The only thing I'm not planning on is putting a larger turbo... I plan on sticking with the stocker until it dies. Anyways, what would get?

Hey fusion, what's up? I see you more on my350Z than over here. Money ain't coming from nowhere (wish it was).
I would really like to keep the stock turbo since I plan on getting a GT35R when I get back to the mainland (no point in buying a 50 trim now just to upgrade in a few years)... even though a 50 with a 2.3 and alky sounds like fun.
My wife wants me to spend the loot on my car since, well, it's for my car, but I think I'ma upgrade her ring. I'ma definately get the Ralliart carbon lip, there's no question in that. I'ma wait on the cams until something is very well proven. Maybe a few more bolt-ons (manifold, i/c pipes etc.). I don't need to worry about suspension since 1) the roads out here are too rough for a good set of coilovers and 2) the misses is getting me a set of springs for my b-day anyway. I would REALLY like to get a set of Volk CE28's, but that'll prolly wait until tax time. I'ma get a nice set of guages and the center guage panel for them (most likely Defis). That'll prolly be it. Whatever's left is gonna go to savings.
Tony (might get some nifty carbon fiber stuffs too)

roth IRA is a great idea. another great idea is to put it toward a permanent life insurance policy that builds cash value. because that money you don't have to wait till retirement to use. =j

Purchase a property, using that money plus some more for closing cost.....You can get 100% financing with a 580 beacon score!
With appreciation values on the rise, you could buy everything you wanted and have the evo paid in a years time with investing in property, especially in Hawaii!
I recently had to redirect my spending habits. It's time I step up to the plate and buy. I found a new condo, 1100 Sq ft. with garage 189K, 100% financed, 5K for closing. 1100.00 a month.
