Nothing serious this summer:
Re-wire the stereo - put in the 1000w, get rid of the 200w, re-attach the remote bass gain, and repair, or get a new box.
PAINT! - not sure about the color yet, but probably super white with a funky pearl in it.
Engine - Looking into getting a GTR engine.. found a couple, waiting for replies from the sellers.

After waiting for almost a year and costing me around £1000 in total I finally got my front and sides. So my plans this summer are mainly going to be based on money from my new job. I started my new job around 2 weeks ago.... and so far so good i should be earning quite alot. However I am also saving for the deposit on my first property so car will get done in bits and bats. But here are the main plans:
>Evo 5 style front> which i still haven't really seen on the mx so i will wait to see how my car turns out to pass judgement,
>I have drift and pak sideskirts so will choose which ones look best all round (i think more than likely drift)
>Evo style rear bumper
>fender flares (to buy)
>inverted cf hood (to buy)
>may change door mirrors
>have doors, arial, boot lock welded and smoothed (poppers)
>a couple more special bits on exterior (to be discussed with my bodyshop guy
then have it painted
>fit new 1.8 engine (bought)
>new clutch (bought)
>repair brake calipers and fit drilled rotors
>short shifter (bought)
>induction kit (bought)
>headers (to buy)
and just mmake the engine bay as shiny as possible
on the interior i've ripped out the 140db sound system and i don't quite know what i'll do>>>> this relies on incoming money's.[/i]
