Got a new amp on the way, 300.2 Phoenix Gold. New paint job, got about half the money for that. I might get around to re-upholstering my interior, but I've been meaning to do that for a few summers now

. A little more chrome work on my interior and I'd like to start on some projectors.

Quaife LSD - in need of one badly.
Get the car to the dyno so I can see what I'm making and most of all, getting it tuned in.

I think I have pretty much done everything I want to with the car. The only things I will be doing with the car in 2004 is the following:
- adding XM Satellite radio
- replacing my busted up 6 CD changer
- re-coating my rims
- plus a few other minor miscellaneous things
No big projects any more, I like the car the way it is now and don't want to sink any more money into it. I will probably only bee keeping the car for another year anyways, max 2 years.

damn, some of them 04' plans sounded like wish lists. on the other hand im about to tell ya what i've already done in the last month, and what im seriously planing to do for 04. also, every single thing you read below i did or am doing myself.
already done:
-18 inch(white)shu-4 rims with falcon ze512 tires
(wheels have never hit the pavement since i
havent let the car out this winter)
-ground-control coilovers
-act clutch
-ss clutch line
-mazda speed motor mounts
-mazda speed under engine brace (brace connecting
front and rear mounts, mines reinforced)
-mallory ignition
-bushings
things im in the process of doin (as in, already started):
-custom paint job (extreme blue with matalic and
pearl)
-full custom interior (from dash to jack panel in
white with same blue as car accents)
im able to do all this stuff myself cause me and my dad have our own 4 bay garage, and the fact that we have about $30,000 in tools including a huge air compressor for air tools, and he's been doin hard hit body work for the past 31 years and he's only 44. and yes he was 13 years old fixing hard hit vehicles back to new. plus i have some skills. i've done everything to my car myself exept he helped put the tranny back on when we changed the clutch out. and he'll be painting my car cause thats one thing i haven't down before but i did and am just about done sanding, and doin a little mud work for few dings. i'll also be wetsanding and buffing after the paint drys. he's currently rebuilding a 79' Z28. anyways, im not ganna name anything that im "planning to do" cause i can't tell the future on how long it will take to get the stuff to do a project, could be tomorrow, could be in 3-4 months, but what i will tell ya is, i am planning to go the whole way with my mx-3...
and good luck to everyone donin or plannin projects!!!
my alittle more than 2 cents
