        Aghhhhh...I dunno. I'm supposed to be saving up to buy something new and move out, but I think of all the "little" things I could do to the car while I still have it as there's no need to sell it soon...

        I'm almost done with repairs...I just got all my lights from Deever and I just have to buy an axle and recharge my A/C and I'm done unless I decide to get bodywork done, in which case I'll need a bumper shell and a hood. Other than that, when I think of what I wanna get it just snowballs out of control...

        -Definitely getting a better clutch; probably a stage 2 XTD on my stock flywheel
        -Definitely getting a new 4-ch amp
        -Definitely getting a CAI and exhaust, possibly a header as well
        -Probably getting full coilovers, depending on how much/if I can work at my other job

        Here's where things start snowballing...

        -My tires are good, but I've been thinking of going with some bigger wheels. Either the Mugen 17s from the Castrol NSX or Rota Formulas. They're both 5 lug though (well technically the Mugens come in 4x114.3 but I want to put these on whatever I get next, hopefully a BB6) so I'd have to do the knuckle swap or buy new hubs...with the Mugens all in all about a $2K endeavor on a $1500 car

        -I wanna get HIDs for my H4s but kits are a gamble...

        -I want a red leather interior a la the S2000...

        -The Kaminari kit looks nice IMO, esp. with the flushmount.

        I still have a CC to pay off though along with some motor vehicle violations, but I can do everything over a course of time. I'm torn as to whether I should go light and move on or just dump everything into this, as until the end of the year my commute is all of 3 miles round trip. I definitely want out of my parents' house though...but...as is I'm actually pretty happy with the CB, I'm not sure I even want to sell it. So those are my plans.

              relocate my battery, get my turbo stuff put in "have 95% of the parts" hopefully get it sanded primed and painted before school starts

              The sig name is new from a local forum. sorry to confuse anyone.

                  You're right...however, I have witnessed a stock exhaust getting pulled off with just Liquid Wrench and hand tools.

                    What I hope to do before the end of the summer is to get my rear suspension fixed and aligned, and to refill my A/C... in terms of performance and other mods, i dont think i'm going to be doing anything to it.. those days are over with this vehicle..
