Rep Power: 370 Full coilovers - Tein Basic/B+G/D2. And with the change, some bracing/sway bar action. That's if I didn't already have that stuff.
Considering what I DO have now, a $1000 American (that's like 1300 Canadian) would set me up with a screen or two, that 4-channel amp I've been hankering for, and a mid-grade carputer with GPS.

Bought
[X] Cleared OEM Headlights (arriving today)
[X] Eyelids
[X] Altezza Grill
[X] Clarion In-Dash DVD Player
[X] JL 500/1
[X] JL HO210RW3v2
Will Buy if all goes well
[ ] 17" Rims and tires
[ ] Type-B Lip Kit
[ ] New paint/fix dents and dings/install all those fun things
[ ] Lambo doors
Spent already: ~$2300
So as of now i need like $3000 - $3500 MORE depending on how much the paint job costs, and I have $1000 now. The hardest thing with this is going to be getting my girlfriend to understand why im putting so much money into this over the next five months.

Reppin Stage 7
Clutch, flywheel, undrive pulleys and then more suspension compnents like sway bars, tie bars, strut bars. Make it grap better, light and rigid. More of the go factor, I could care less how my car looks.
