Not that i do, it's theoretical... for now... but there's a small possibility..

Anyways would you get one expensive part, or get a bunch of not so expensive parts.

I was thinking that if/when i have $1 grand, should i get cams or just buy a bunch of not so expensive parts.

What would you do?

Cams or other stuff?

EX of other stuff: SFC's, suspension parts, tuner, gears, other mods, appearance parts (chin spoiler, rims, etc.)

and yes, i know i have to get a tuner and gears for the cams i want, but i could buy the cams now and wait to install them after i get the gears and tuner.

Lower control arms, you should get them. 1000 bucks really isn't that much money, you can pick out an exhaust setup, do your suspension, or gears/tuner/plenum. You can't really do one big thing for 1k, short of buying a nitrous setup.

gears, tuner, and a rear end/T-LOK rebuild is what i'd get then.

I do need shocks and struts soon b/c i'm getting my car lowered. Already have springs, but haven't put them in yet.

I'm gonna go for 4.10's, and a tuner. I need to know how much all of this costs though :D

I know gears themselves are pretty cheap.

Sub frame connectors will be purchased soon after. Torque flex ftl.

but then when will i get the shocks/struts?

what tuner are you going with? can i recommend sniper tuning. they would satisfy your needs for your car.

you dont want wheel hop anyway, it breaks things. Stiffer LCAs are just better, and SFC/LCAs will just help with 4.10s, and if you have decent tires that hook when you beat on your car, you will really like the SFCs.
