Hey i'm wanting to get into building my z up and want to know what to start with. As of now the only thing i have done is taken the lower and upper air resonators off. Besides that the car is stock. Any tips would be great.

The how to's are coming back, they were just lost in a server crash. I'd suggest a bigger rear sway bar, 4 bolts and you're done. A 19 or 21 is good, I have the 19mm on my car

bigger = less lean on turning

I'm about to install a 21 on mine!!!

some people say 21mm ones are overkill, hence I have the 19mm

I've seen the 21mm cause the inside rear wheel to lift in hard turns.

how hight we talking? and wuts considered a hard turn? like drifting hard turn or like auto-x hard turn?

High enough that the wheel was useless for traction. It was a quick turn at a local Wendy's drive-thru.

Get a 21mm if you know what you are talking about and have special needs that it will provide.
Otherwise, for 99% of us, get a 19mm.
