      install my replacement front LX swaybar.
      add sound deadener throughout my floorpan(especially the hatch/trunk)

      change to smaller injectors & get my mpg/boost back.
      buy some decent tires.

      mayhaps search out 16" rims vs the current 15's

          We have some ideas and have seen a really nice DIY job a guy did for an FC RX-7. Simple/easy to build them actually and he can offer them for the RX-7's as well. The drift guys should love them.

                Mines all boring maintenance:
                - Alignment
                - New windshield
                - Find out why battery light keeps coming on (think its the alt)
                - Fix soft spot in floor

                Maybe find a clean replacement car instead, all depends on finances and free time.

                If I get most of that done I'd like to work on the paint get some nice tires and try to rig up the cat-back i have from a 3rd gen.

                          I'll probably buy a couple more random cars.
                          I'll be starting a build thread for my BF.

                              Fix the brakes and suspension. Also gotta repair the wobbly crank pulley/crank seal that I've been slacking on. The car hasn't been running lately so that must mean the problem isn't getting worse right?
