I'm not planning to bring any FI into the equation...if anything, just boltons that free up some power (I/H/E). And maybe some exterior touches, like a front lip on the '93 (looks too bare without it IMO) and JDM taillights. Painting the roof just popped into my mind today; of course I've seen it done, always had a mixed opinion about it.
The thing is, my parents were planning to spend up to 11k for a first car; unfortunately, their idea of a good first car was a 4 cyl Grand Am or Cavalier. Their biggest peeve is mileage, so finding an S13 with only 32k miles on it was a miracle.
