Going to add more rocks to my collection.

I'm thinking of buying the SOS supercharger, but I might wait cuz I plan to use the funds and fly out for vacation and buy something else.

Thanks Jordan. This thread just got me motivated to work on the S Here's my plans for the winter:

- Full wet sand/compound polish to make her shine
- Spacers all around on AP2 V1's for aggressive stance (fenders have been rolled)
- Paint center area of INGS rear flat black
- New shift knob (still deciding)
- Bi-Amp my Focal 3-ways with Zapco
- Modifry DCI hookup with SVC (speed controlled volume)
- More security features
- And look at either Mugen HT or FI options (although these may wait until next winter)

EDIT: The car will be hitting the track in 2010 a few times too. So I will be upgrading brake pads and fluid. Possibly lines and rotors as well I just need to do some research. Anyone have suggestions?

- Pick up a set of coilovers hopefully by spring with the bumpsteer kits ( Espelir springs FS!)
- relocate front license plates
- more security
- replace seals on rear oem spoiler
- cut off/grind rear bumper parts so no more rubbing
- steal kenny's ap2 console


that should be good for 2010 track plans

Are you planning on slamming your car? The front T1R Bumpsteer kit was a pain to install and it's not really necessary unless your car is really low. Same goes for the rear kit... except it's easier to install.

I did both. I wish I had done coilovers first, and then the bumpsteer kits to do an A/B comparison.
