A short shifter plate adapter and polyeurothane bushings for the shifter would make shifting more pleasant. Adding Redline MT-85 transaxle fluid is also good for smoother shifts.

And there was a way to advance our timing 2* with the use of an Android app called Car Guage Pro and a bluetooth ODBii adapter. You then just need to be sure to use 93 octane going forward.
