Moorreee maintenance, maybe headers, maybe paint on the front end, def need new headlights as one of mine has a rock hole the size of a dime in it, probably going to gut it including carpet, sound deadening, clean up under dash wiring, hood pins, basically going to make it more of a track car, next seasons mods are track days and safety equipment, and lots and lots of tires. :nod

Yeah it’s already wicked loud with the new diff bushings, if I have even the back seats out…but I’m not leaving the carpet out unless I get some nice seats, but don’t want to buy seats that my damn-near 300lb ass is going to destroy, so I’m gonna do some driver weight reduction before that, and I don’t want nice seats til I have a harness bar/roll bar and some nice harnesses to go with them…but I’m definitley getting all the tar mats out over the winter, fuck that shit. Car’s already loud inside even with full interior, I’ll live with it.

Two tube chassis, maybe some rocker suspension bits, and might actually build the EG33 for 35R boost. Got all the parts here to do it, just collecting dust…If I’m lucky the 962 body might be here by spring :eek

6. Looking for the right set of coilovers cause i am not low enough for my taste
7. I have a single exit BN knock off rear bumper that needs paint
8. gated shifter conversion for every gear selectability
9. I still have yet to install the Safc 2 i have lying around
