Last year was new engine and tranny (2zz and c60), this year is more visual,

TRD Struts/Springs, OEM CF Hood w/ raised scoop, BC2 Front and rear bumpers w/ CF Diffuser (if they ever f’ing get here), and TRD Spoiler, and some 17"'s when i get my tax check. Possibly a 50 shot as well, but we’ll see. Also looking at getting some rear sways and the TRD rear 3pt brace, plus 8k and 3k HID kits (fog’s)

oh yeah, this is for an '00 Celica GTS

fresh built motor, t3 60/63, some dent pulling, bay semi-shaved, new brake lines all around, new fuel lines, full paint job, rear discs done, front integra brakes, new seats, new steering wheel, and the list goes on of other small stuff i can’t remember now.

the bike will hopefully get powdercoated small parts like levers and rearsets, velocity stacks, pcIII, new tires and a tune. maybe stainless lines later in the summer, but we’ll see.

Hopefully a rear diff kit, something to tighten up that weak stock limited slip.

Maybe some suspension work.

The title with no liens on it! Should be paid off by May!

Hopefully a Magnaflow exhaust after that and some new rear brakes, then I can have some fun with it.

Cobalt- Nothing really maybe some detail stuff. Painting interior trim pieces, cleaning everything up good. Maybe painting the wheels black. Other than that nothing planned.

Camaro- Finally got long tubes for it. Actually a whole new full exhaust. polished stainless long tubes and y-pipe and slp dual dual catback. Do some regular maintenance to get it running 100% change fluids and stuff. Car only has 17k miles on it. Maybe some new wheels. Maybe a cam. Maybe some heads. If that happens a 12 bolt will be totally necessary. We’ll see.

I just got the same motor mounts put in recently on my Evo, also was looking to get the rear JDM bumper but I’ve heard a few things about insurance issues because you have to remove the rear crash beam.

I have a few things on the list:  
I’m hoping to get meth this year plus a few other little things, maybe even the FQ 400 rims I’ve been drooling over for the past few years. I really should get the tranny rebuilt also.
