A lot of people seem to start off with the sleepy eye DIY mod.

Think there is a way to do it like that, but I don't have pop-ups anymore.

How about some details. And any 240 (unless riced out) is nico picture worthy. My car looks like crap but its ok because its my car that I love.

If it is the car you love then you would of had a list in your head a month before you even bought the car.

Put that list into action!

If your looking for preformance you should start off with suspension, first you sould change all your bushings(unless already have), and whatever you want after that

Get it legal and insured first, perform basic maintenance to keep the car reliable and road worthy. drive the car stock for a while and upgrade things as you go. within the first couple months of owning my car I changed things as i went to make the car more comfortable to drive like Q45 front brakes, a J30 VLSD, and a Apexi exaust. the q45 brakes and J30 VLSD are cheap upgrades if you like junkyard hunting.

VLSD VLSD VLSD VLSD VLSD VLSD I say that because driving in the snow is fun, getting stuck in it on the other hand is not. Wish I had one
