spend your money on brakes, tyres, and suspension.

spend your money on power mods when you can own a turbo.

If you look into threads where people ask the exact same thing about their new NA silvia you will see responses along the lines of "don't try to get more power out of it until you are allowed to put a turbo motor in"

and for good reason

think of getting the turbo motor in the future, and now base your mods around it, such as suspension, strut braces, service ur gearbox, diff etc etc so your ready for the sr20det :) N/A can be a waste of money - coming from previous experience. good luck tho!

for an NA engine without some decent mods, a chip will be a waste of money IMO.
