In no particular order: Valve Body upgrade, complete stereo re-do, 17" summer wheels and tires, RSTB, Some L10 work, polyurethane bushings, SS brake lines, CAI, smaller SC pulley, Blitz BOV, 'shaved' trunk, Cattmann coilovers...um, I think that's it. When all that's done, I'll think about some cosmetic mods.

3.33 pulley. Ap racing brake upgrade will be done in 1 week, type II wing before January. So it looks like the pulley will be it. maybe some recaro seats for apssenger an driver(our leather sucks bad right now). Then the max is retired.

To make a device to retard ignition timing for NOS use. I have a few EE type friends who might help me.

Perhaps a...
Springs
2k Muffler
20k on the brakes, at 30k I'll go portfield
20k on the clutch, a little power shifting and that will need to be changed out also, LOL

If I can find a good deal some used heads I would like to polish and debur them, and mabye light porting and port matching. Perhaps take a shot at the cam regrind thing.

And if the top comes off why not take the bottom out too and throw in some forged postons...

Wow thats allot of money, fuc/< it I'll just buy a SC, LMFAO

hmm, Well I am bored so....

I will be putting my springs, shocks, and clear/red rear lights in next week. After that I will be putting a 98 grille,(not in the mail yet, but hopefully soon) and 97+ headlights on, might have to wait till after Christmas. In the early months of the new year I will be installing the UPRD ECU(when the group deal goes through), a Y-pipe and muffler, then a UDP. When Don starts up again I will get the VB mod and after that I will let my pocket book rest, for a couple of months anyway.

Hmm.. uhh.. thats a dream engine. The bearing journals don't even line up. It would be cheaper to stroke your current crankshaft

I definitely will. The main reason we are getting it is because of the driving here in Phoenix. One minute you are doing 80 the next you are slamming your brakes. there is rarely an in between. Also we have been street racing a lot more(sorry guys, wife just cant help it). So we need the stopping power for safety. Will let you know!

Lets see here, Koni shocks, underdrive pulley, sway bars, strut tower brace, clear corners, new full exhaust, ACT clutch kit for new 5-speed conversion, short throw shifter, new steering wheel, spark plug wires, injectors, hi-flow fuel pump, lightened fly wheel, shift tach, ECU upgrade, and my NOS system upgraded to a wet system. That should just about do it for me.

My wish list for '01: Cattman SS Y-pipe, RT Cat, rebuilt tranny, Quaife mechanical LSD, NOS 70-shot & window switch, fuel pump, EGT & A/F gauges, forged pistons, rods, crank, 17 x 8 wheels with Yokohama A520 235/45/17ZRs. If all this doesn't get me down into the 13s, I'm gonna have to resort to window tint and a personalized license plate (SYONARA)!
