I dont have a ton of money at the moment but my rsx has some issues with it that need to be taken care of, i dont have the room or time to do it considering its winter time. So if anyone can help me out on the cheaper side please let me know. I have all the brakes and oil and filter waiting.

it needs:

-new rear brakes put on pads and rotors, new front pads rotors and calipers  
-raise coilovers up an inch if possible, they are fully adjustable  
-fix exhaust leak, header is two peice and it leaks pretty bad in the middle.  
-possible fix/ figure out check engine light.  
-oil change

if anyone can help me out please let me know, and how much youd want to do it.

Work was already performed by me. Coilovers are threaded body coil overs, meaning height is adjusted separate of spring pre-load. They are currently seized to the bodies so they are being left to soak in PB blaster for a long while before more attempts are made at adjustment.
