Sick, you've got the right idea (imo), power mods first, suspension, then everything else.

i actually did suspension first then i focused on power mods. i just put my power mods up on the top of the list... for what reason, i dunno.

thanks for all the comments, i appreciate it.

im saving up for coilovers right now but its hard to save due to the holiday season coming up upon us. over the past few weeks ive dropped a few bills on shopping already, so my coilovers will be on hold for now.

Seems like you got most everything covered, now all you need is:

-Coilovers (I would hold out till you can afford a nice set, *cough* DMS)
-RS hood painted WRB
-STI 6spd (They're dirt cheap these days, lol ya right)

So so sad Ave. I bet you can't wait to get it back together. By the way, did you ever get the pictures we took that day?
