I set a goal for my self with this car. I want to make it look good, ride nice, have good audio/visual system, and trap atleast 110mph. But before I can really start to do anything to this car I have to get my Z28 back to running condition (needs a new motor right now).

First, Im getting all the chips and damage taken out of the body and having it repainted. Then Im replacing all the bulbs, clearing the headlight turn signal and installing DDE's. Next is the interior (pedal set on the way) including an STS and a weighted shift ****. Somewhere around the same time, my audio system should be going in. Then Ive got the suspension going in (Tein with EDFC), including the full Energy Suspension bushings, FSTB and Rear sway. After that....and after I make some more money....ill be putting in a CAI, headers, muffler etc. Then I should be happy

Oh the wish list . . .

My next mods will be (maybe in a different order!):
1.) Progress springs with either KYB AGX or Tokico HP shocks/struts
2.) RSB and FSTB
2.) Warpspeed Y and B pipes with high-flow cat
3.) VB reprogram
4.) TS computer
5.) The dream of forced induction (i.e. turbo or supercharger!)

Now I just need the cash flow . . .

Brakes are already on their way, so that doesn't count, so here is what I have left:

1. Get the H&Rs that have been sitting in my living room for a month on (w/Illuminas)
2. H&R 20mm spacers for the rear
3. New tires/rims (Axis Hiro Gloss Black 18s)
4. PAC adapter to hook my subs up to the Bose
