If you are gonna get lowering springs, get some shocks/struts too, or else you will blow the stock ones out in a week. merry chrismas.

**edit**- i just saw that you have an auto. Use the 900 to swap to a manual. **

I think you should look at what's wearing on your car before making your choice. If your tires are almost worn, for example, use that $900 for upgraded tires. Exhaust rusting out? Upgrade to an Apexi N1. Just remember lower springs = less comfortable ride, and 240's already handle well with stock springs. It may look snazzier with lowered springs but if you commute in that car, your butt and bladder will probably thank you if you kept those springs stock. Enjoy.

Like he said, PREMIUM, jk, : )

I would probably put that money into a cd or something so you can make some money off of it, wait till summer and then you will have even more money to spend? Who cares about fixing up your car during the winter anyways??? Just my opinion though

Premium and quick kinda go hand in hand when talking about BJs. Get an escort and skip all that dinner, taking her out crap and get the hotel room.

Seriously though, pickup a low mileage KA/manual and swap it. If you don't want to do that and everything else is ok, pick up an LSD, very important for that drifting you like so much...

agreed....If you dont switch it over to manual, then Get an lsd...hey Ill sell you my transmission, Stock clutch and flywheel, shifter and shiftknob, slave cylinder w/ hosing, pressure plate, and mounts for $250. Then you can take the rest of the money, buy any missing parts that you need for the swap and get an LSD....thats it!

I'd have to disagree with that. I've had sportlines on my stock shocks for over a year and they haven't blown yet.

i think you shoudl probably put some in an account for a rainy day, then spend 500 on whatever... or save up a bit mroe and get a set of teins, its real damn easy to **** soemthing up, like sliding into a curb and bashing your entire from passenger side suspension and killing a wheel, **** happens, be prepared

BTW, i only got 160 bucks for christmas, damn poor relatives

oh, and getting action from a girlfriend is never free, common misconception, remember, women are the antichrist, unless theyre dumb, hot, and asian, perfecto!

Invest in Conseco stock. Their stock is in the gutter right now at around $.04 per share. Nine hundred will buy 22,500 shares. Do the math. If it only goes to $1.00 per and you sell, you just made $21,600, minus taxes of course. Historically, it's been in the $50 range. If it went to that, you would be a millionaire. You could then buy any Skyline, Supra, Porsche or Ferrari you wanted.

Just repo thinking small again...

Do the M/T swap dude. The auto totally sucks the power out of the ole' KA engine. Unless you plan on doing an SR or other Engine swap, I would think it's the best thing you could do for that car for 900 :) That car was not made for auto sissies. Clutch power all the way!
