Give your car a good tune up ---drive and get comfortable with your car--As far as mods are concerned--it is personal taste and $$$$ ---speed costs Dinero---how fast do you want you taco to go.

Hit up the search button--TONS of good info--welcome to the forum!!!

Beautification is the last thing to worry about so if it's ugly sand it down a bit and primer over the paint. Also before you start thinking about speed ask yourself if that's the motor you want to trick out. If not just save a bit and buy your new motor. Then start doing things like the suspension. Then go for the HKS exhaust, manifold, and tip. After that go all out on your turbo (waste gate, intercooler, rebuild the motor, etc.).

get to know your car first...enjoy it in its stock form...learn the habits of it. research...check out different brands...use this website...probably your best choice on the net (search button is your friend)

Then...you mod it...start with performance then work your way outside.

And listen up buddy...

EDIT: sorry to hear about that man....don't worry there are others out there...probably even better than the one you saw

Don't give up if you want a 240 it will happen, you will find a better one for the same price.
