Plans eh!
Well to my car I plan to add some gas, some more gas and probibly some more gas!! LOL

Might find alittle extra cash in the couch and get my PCM and PULLEY. But what I want is a K&N set-up

Where to start... lol

• Replace leaky valve cover gasket
• Replace/Paint Front Bumper, Paint Rear Bumper
• Fix rubbing passenger door
• Fix sagging exhaust
• Scratch repair over entire car
• CAI/DP/HV3

And that's just the major things, there are probably 30 other little things that I want to do.

Well just upgraded to ZZP 85 mm maf. Hadn't tuned the car since adding a resonator, plus the new flow from the intake, I had to rework my piping for the MAF. Tuned for 2 hours.
Then I got a project, free hood from member here.
I hope to get intercooled by end of summer, maybe, and maybe sport some different rims.

i want the hood!!!

Well since the Summer is soon coming to a close and fall is right around the corner. I figured i'd bring this thread back to life so everyone can look over what they had planned for this year.

SOoooo.... Did you get around to doing what you had planned to do????

LOL! I only did one thing to my car this year... New D/S R1 Rotors and brakes (either Hawk/R1, haven't decided yet)

Didn't do the paint on the calipers (I had some stuff to do it though) but I chickened out cause I figured if I was to paint them i'd rather do it right and get them powdercoated.

Never got around to a coolant flush either and my sensor light has turned off, though I still check it periodically just in case.

And all the other stuff, I just didn't have the $$$ because of a job change and just had a wild summer.

...I still need to get in for that recall too hehe!

I ended up doing alot more then I planned to do, and ended up having alot more happen then i thought would. Overall I'm happy, gettin car back monday and i cannot wait to snap some photos for you guys.

nothing at all ... it was a very crappy summer

well.. its not running, but i have a VS cam and my springs/struts are coming together. And the intercooler is coming very very soon. I give myself a B-.

Fixed my valve cover leak, new bumper should be on the way next week and got my CAI. The rest I've honestly slacked on bigtime but next weekend I plan to get a lot done.

installed Regal seats
started speaker replacement
window regulator
waiting on new grilles
maybe projectors before photo shoot

I'm starting to get just the slightest bit of a rough idle...I'm thinking new plugs (80k on the present set) and maybe an O2 sensor.
