headers are definately the cheaper way and since you have a 93, if you do choose to go with a cam I would definately look into either swapping from speed density to mass air (because speed density doesnt mix well with an aftermarket cam) or getting your car tuned for the cam along with a custom burnt chip. I also have a 93 Z, and I was quit happy with the feel of my headers. I am not absolutely positive about the cam thing, but I have had friends of mine tell me that they had problems with their cams and speed density, so you might wanna ask around and check with other people on it. Hope I was of some help.
