only thing in there is a small system thats still pretty decent

JVC headunit  
shitty jensen amp that still powers the sub pretty decently  
10" special edition audiobahn sub  
custom subzone enclosure

plans:  
sr20 motor swap  
eibach springs  
swapping rims over from my geo for now  
fixing up the body…has a few dents and dings and a couple surface rust spots but nothing too bad

today…shaved sentra/gxe roughed it up, and gave it a coat of rattle can shine…fixed up spoiler a bit…also smoothed some surface rust and gave that a coat of black as well…

going to go get some quotes on the body work in the AM…as soon as body work is done, suspension will probably be next…going to switch rims over from the storm…those should look sweet on this car…

Hes probably asking you why tou are going to do body work to the car, and suspension and shit, especially seeing how you said you are making payments on this car. If you need to make payments on a 11 year old car maybe you need to get your money straight before you plan on modding a 11 year old car.

its just a couple hundred bucks for a few months…and body work…the owners previous to my gfs parents did some stupid shit around the front part of the quarterpanels right next to the rear doors…like duct tape and bondo shit…looks horrible…im just going to get it fixed so it looks like that never happened…and for suspension, probably just some lowering springs and i found some ST swaybars from this guy on another forum…
