What to do with $300
I've got $300 coming my way that i can spend on anything i want...the car is a 2002 pr5 with an intake...it's already been on some road courses such as summit point
just wondering what to do to it with that money...so far i'm looking at the rear stabilizer bar from sr motorsports ($190)
and the kartboy shifter/bushing kit ($100)
that comes close to the $300 and would help the car handle and shift better...just wondering what other thinks and if they have any of these items

What a dumb question..you give it to me, duh. 
j/k Anyway, 'tis a good choice going for the sway bar. Since the OEM bar is so small, I'm sure that one will definately improve the oversteer (turn in). However, if you plan on actually racing the car (even in a mostly stock car), I'd save the extra $100, then save up a bit more money for some R-compounds (I.E. Khumo VictoRacers or the like)

Go through Rishie for the bar, it'll cost you less for the same thing...

Rishie is a guy that can sell you the bar, his name on this site is "ARD MP5", without the quotes of course. I had $315 sitting here and I bought the B&M short throw shifter plus Kartboy bushings for only $167.30...plenty left for my next project : )

Yeah, Rishie owns a shop and gives the club members good deals for going through him, so just talk to him. He's in Cali, and his nick is ARD MP5
Oh yeah, both of those things are great and I think I would've suggested the same things if you asked me.
Good luck, let us know what you get.
