i just bought a 2002 oz rally.. what should be my 1st mod i have $1000.00 thanx

hmmm, well, i would say dress it up a little, its always nice to get into a sporty theme. it just gets you more motivated to improve your car. but, if you dont wish to spend the money, i would say the first thing should be a new exhaust system, but actually you may find a a short shifter to be of much greater value.

This is what I did with my OZ:

Magnaflow Exhaust--$300
AEM Cold Air Intake--$219
17" Flat Black Fusion RE2 Rims--$1000
Sony X-plod Head Unit and Speakers--$500

Next on my list:
RRM Intercooled Turbo--about $4000--saving money now
RRM Headers--about $360
Accolade Ken Style Body Kit--$950 Shipped

In my opinion it is kinda stupid to work on the cosmetics before the engine b/c i would rather be a sleeper than a slow but awesome looking car.

thats sounds like the best to start with and maybe make it looka a lot nicer

i'd go to what he said, plus new wheel and tires, they make a world of difference, that and a new front grill, and it'll be a whole new car man.
