My car does need a bit of work

Magnaflow glasspack (for the resonator), and a Dynomax Super Turbo muffler

Valve cover gasket and everything else that has to be removed to get there

Brake pads and rotors and an ABS sensor

Not sure if I'll need parts to fix the linkage in the doors, and one of the windows doesn't go up and down but the motor still works.

I might do the timing belt and water pump too

I wouldn't mind a set of LED lights... including the headlights for my PT Cruiser.

Would also like a nice set of aluminum wheels with some Michelin All season tires... and then a new set of snow tires mounted on the steelies that are currently on the car.

Wouldn't mind some nicer front seats and reupolstered back seats as well.

And a better stereo with better speakers and a small subwoofer would be a welcome addition too.

Oh and a cargo net for the trunk and a trailer hitch receiver so I can have use things like a hitch-mounted bike rack and tow some light utility trailers.

Eh, I need basic upkeep stuff more than performance these days.

Hubs/Bearings.

Will need new front pads after the first track day in May.

Fix the oil leak, which I believe is the rear main seal.

So if the trans is coming out, will throw in a new clutch and flywheel while in there, because racecar.

Brand new exhaust system, some WS6 8" wide snowflakes (or the overly priced 17" Year One snowflakes), and a gold dash and steering wheel.

Sounds a lot better than I thought. Rumbly. The ones I saw were also puffing out some soot.

I would like one of these cars in manual with AWD. I bet the torque with AWD would be insane.

avusblau > G_Body_Man: Sponsored by the number 3
11/22/2014 at 18:58

e36 ti/compact:

what I think I can afford:

- new clutch kit

- new paint and some body work (maybe "new" hood)

- this suspension part that still makes clunky noise in front (probably 2-year old front sway bar link rods) rest is almost brand-new

- smoked side blinkers

wish list:

-bigger engine ( 6cyl.) + matching rear diff

- rear hatch spoiler, oem Zender M-technic in matching colour or 3-piece AC Schnitzer

- oryginal unmolested black leather, heated "sportsize" seats

- yellow hella foglights

- AC Schnitzer or M3 side mirrors (heated)

But really my want is strong for 900 turbo SAAB:)

Those ones hadn't had the egr tune yet, so they were running rich ....

FWD with 236tq is already insane! Imagine 300+ at the wheels!

Kanaric > Sportwägen, Driver Of The Red Sportwagen
11/22/2014 at 19:15

Without LSD too unless they have those now. Must be insane.

That Golf Alltrack is coming to the US. My guesses we will we a AWD version here with MAYBE a manual option with diesel.Want to see what people do with one of those.

Enkei RPF1s (black), better summers than the stock Dunlops, Kartboy shifter bushings, Invidia Q300 exhaust, Cobb intake, Cobb Accessport, rear sway bar, and maaaaaybe coilovers (maybe). Brakes and suspension are probably the last thing I need to modify. I'll get better pads before I get bigger, more ventilated brakes.

It's not a track car. Just, like, basic, typical WRX upgrades. I want to keep things simple. And daily driveable.

EDIT: OH! And probably a better head unit. Something with Sat and HD radio and better phone integration.

I became neutral points then. IMHO Wu-tang was the best rap group of all time, with RunDMC in second. Don't even get me started on YMCMB, they screwed up rap music badly enough that almost every popular rap song is shit.

as far as east coast goes I gotta give it to Public Enemy, west coast is a 2 way battle between Eazy-E's Ruthless Records crew and the early days of Death Row.

And I agree. YMCMB is marginally worse than Hitler.

Fair enough. Is it okay that I don't classify the Beastie Boys as rap, but as rap-rock, as I see a lot of them in Linkin Park's first album, Hybrid Theory, among other rock works.
