What year is your 400?

I think you should go with the shock package next.

Especially if you plan on jumping any 92' canals.

Actually, Klutch, on a serious note...there's a guy selling in the FOR SALE forum, stock 450r shocks which are adjustable. They fit on your 400. You can probably get them cheap, (like 100 bucks since they're stock) and they'll make a big difference over your 400 stock shocks.

Good Luck

First thing you def. need are nerfs!! Then get a stabilizer. Or your best route would be to use that money for a down payment on a 450 ;)

well they are both faster than your 400. whatever you do wait to get the 450. sell the warrior and z400 and you could get a 450.
