Hi guys,

So I'm getting a bit tired of pouring money into my ST (just dropped $1.5k on a sound system, and still not satisfied). After all the $$$ that I've put into her, I realize that I still need probably another 20K to make her "perfect". The list just goes on and on...damn, so many choices! What to do!?!

Blah, enough of my whining. Anyways, on to the point of this thread.

So what do guys think I should do next? I'm only going to spend another $3000 max on my car (I say that now, but...). So of the following choices, which do you think should me the "final" upgrade on my Cecilia?

1) Engine swap (yeah, I know it'll end up costing me more than 3K... kindasad.gif )
2) Redo my exterior (new paint, carbon hatch, fix all dings/dents/rust, neons lights)
3) Redo my interior (sparco seats, racing steering wheel, car computer)
4) Performance upgrades: lowering springs, strut bars, rear brake conv, big brake kit, projectors, and exhaust system...also going to be >3K frown.gif

Damn...she's gonna end up costing me more than a freakin' Supra! biggrin.gif
