3-4 months
GET A CAR <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=' ![]() Preferred 91-94 White fastback but will settle for any fastback with decent mileage Summer of 2003 - Springs and shocks - sway bars - strut bars - 5 lug swap - FD rims (for autocross) - Kaaz VLSD (I'm sure i'll have fun breaking it in. If i have a good job (probably will overflow into fall - PDM front, Bomex spoiler (looks like a little fin thingie) - Aspen White paint (stock color), or some BMW white, forget the nam - Black roof 2004 - Low mileage KA24DE - NSport Kit, or custom kit with T3/T04 - 5Zigen Fireball - Eventually some Tien coilovers Eventually it will become a trailor bitch, for autocross.

If all goes to my master plan <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':devil:'>
By the end of Summer '03: Full rebuild of spare engine and turbocharged. Probably just use a ~12psi wastegate spring and skip the boost controller for stage 2. Also remove rear seat, emissions equipment, and anything else I can remove for SM. Spring '03: Front Z brakes, proportioning valve, and Nismo or Kaaz LSD. Any extra money will go to finishing the engine: boost controller, pulleys, electric water pump and fan. One of these years: 4 or 6 pt. roll bar/cage, one piece seats, 5pt. harnesses, 5-lug conversion, rear Z brakes, Z MC, custom Kodiak 17x10" aluminum wheels wrapped in 275/40/17 A compound Hoosiers with custom/JUN fender flares, JIC coilovers (possibly with custom rates), adjustable suspension arms/rods, fiberglass hood, PDM aero package, Mustang "GT" spoiler, and new paint.......and I dream on...... |

Well hear are my plans for my lovely SOHC Hatchback
next mouth go ahead and my put the car under the knife and after a mouth or two of nice work will i have 91 or above front bumper cover, and a newly painted my hood and of course a small engine change to a 302 HO then a LSD then the plans go for if this works how i want just use the spindles off my friends 99 gt and use his rotors and that might be a possiple 5 lug conversion if not im going DragLites* i want a 6 psi charger since they are rather cheap for the 5.0's but that will come when i get used to the power/ and get Traction! after that im going to try for somesort of Really stiff suspension to make up for the weight
