Plans for 2012?

[Blue8g]

I'm not sure if this belongs here but:

Any one have any plans for their G's for 2012?

(This doesn't have to be 8g specific, I just put it here haha)

[mrg7243]

Nah not really just drive it

[greddy]

find some lightweight 17x9s to mount my RS-3s, finish up the 5spd swap, do the eclipse ecu swap and get it tuned @ English racing, and then it depends on how serious the miata build gets.

[oakrdrs187]

Projector retrofits for both.
Do some much needed maintenance.
Camber kits all around.

[Corey2kG]

Complete old style (pre facelift) conversion n newer engine n 5 speed swap n paint.

[mko]

not a thing

[E_Emerson88]

tune up and try and get of of that fucking lifter noise lol

[wetamup2k3g]

I plan to:
-Get my bumper with the molded lip painted and put on;
-Drop!
-Spoiler, mirrors and door handles painted (clear is peeling on those and on cold humid days frost gets behind the clear and turns those parts a pale red color, same when I go to the carwash);
-Buy JDM heads and retrofit them with projectors (I have FX-R's, thinking about trying TL's in there as they are the best bi-xenon's you can buy);
-Work with the custom grill I have so it will fit with the JDM heads;
-Maybe upgrade my headunit to a double-din navigation unit;
-Roll these fenders;
-Keep up on this wonderfully-maintained machine!

Future goals are to:
-Buy a house with at least a 2-car garage this year;
-Get another Diamante;
-Get a 4-cyl 8G and build the motor (not this year though);
-Replace the Suzuki with a roomier vehicle (may happen soon, like before spring soon).

That's all I could think of.

I say it every year, but I'd like to get mine finished this year. Always seem to start a new project without really finishing the last! Been modding it for about 10 years now so must be due to be finished. So, some paint on USDM parts, fit addco bar, finish interior.

[Skyforger]

This year will keep me busy with both cars.

03 Galant:
*Install JDM heads.
*Buy 6000K HIDs.
*Yellow fogs: both yellow halogens and either paint or yellow film for the fog lens.
*Find a Magnaflow muffler, and install with glasspack (already accquired)
*Refinish Cobra wheels and repaint (finished color is a surprise. :P)
*Accquire tires for the Cobra wheels (still undecided on rubber choice)
*Possibly switch the JDM folding mirrors with either LHD versions, or Mirage mirror swap.
*Find second front bumper (8Ga or 8Gb, haven't decided) to mold and repair OZ lip to.
*Clean and repaint the front calipers and rear drums. (calipers purple, drums black)
*Find a set of KYB GR-2 struts front and rear, and install with Tien I4 lowering springs.
*Repair and install EGR visor.
*Tune up: new NGK V-power copper plugs, wires and coilpack boots, PCV valve, fuel filter and seafoam it.

The 03 Grand Ma GT:
*Install new front calipers, rotors, pads and replace defective front right hub assembly.
*Replace blower motor
*Fix rear defroster tab
*Dismount the worn out Generals from the ROHs
*ROHs to be powdercoated (dunno if I'm going with silver or gunmetal)
*Awaiting payment on trade for my LED tails and black housing headlights for stockers.
*New Iridium plugs and fuel filter, seafoaming beforehand.
*Finish the small amount left on loan, and possibly sell by fall.
