ive read you arent really looking for performance, so id have to say... not really sure, most the things i wanna do to mine is performance... how about shaved door handles? light weight flywheel? lighter rims? im not so sure those are undre 200 but thats i can think of.

if you didnt care what kind of mod id say tackle the whole exhaust w/ headers and dp. you could also take out all the unnecassary things in the engine bay: charcaol canister, emissions, etcs. can also replace all the hoses and gas lines, how about new brake lines?

I didnt say I wasnt interested in performance, its just that Im mostly satisfied wiht the performance as it sits. I think I may be getting a Turbo Donor with bad RK. Im now seriously looking into doing an NA-T. Either that or the full GTE swap after rebuilding the donor. So I think any engine mods would be a waste right now.

My paint is decent as is so I dont wanna do any body work yet. I think Im kinda just at the end of what I can do with this car right now until I get some more funds and do the engine swap. Oh well, I'll just keep selling my parts for now and keep saving up

If you do get the donor...can i have some stuff? haha. Ill buy it cheap!

Well to contribute now, If you want the car to look better, Take the rear wiper off, Tint the windows, Take it to a detaling shop...they can do a wonderful job. Recover/paint more of the interior. Build a cool perfect fit speaker box. Def work on the exhaust too. There was a big dif between my rusty stock exhaust and the meinike 2.5" with the magnaflow. Id do a header and hi-flo cat if i wasnt getting a whole new turbo supra...

P.S. - Your car(if thats it in the video) does sound similar to mine, But a little better. So whatever it is, I like it.

yeah thats my 86.5 in the video. probably the difference is that I have a 12inch "bullet" resonator behind the gutted cat.

Im going to stick with working on my interior now I think. I started with the little paneles and pieces I could do myself, but now I want more. I have an extra set of seats that are in great shape (wrong color) that I think Im going to tear apart and use for templates. My only problem is I dont have a sewing machine capable of doing upholstery work, but for the money I can save doing the covers myself I think I can afford to buy a second hand one.

I wanted to say, Whatever new exhaust, make the same kinda video

could u post me a link for the tips you bought? or no?

[theWeezL]

I bought em off the shelf of the muffler shop...they were left overs...they arent resonator tips, just angle cut chromies.
