coilovers laone blow your budget
do things in order, like what i did
1. i did my suspension first
2. then built my tranny
3. then i started with the interior
4. and now with the outside
5. last is boost
Im getting around 900 bucks this year from taxes! And im wondering what i should do with the money on my car.
1. Paint, Tein coil over kit, and a 4wheel disk upgrade.
2. Pull appart parts talon 5spd swap, 4g63 turbo rubuild with a 18g turbo.
3. Last idea take out a loan and do a awd turbo swap. (Not really leaning twards doing this but its in the back of my head as i could do it.)
Any ideas would be cool.

Paint it first. I am in the process of preparing mine for paint now.
Yea im going to start preparing at the end of Feb. Im going to paint it myself like i did my old car. Now i know what everyone is going to say and that is im stupid for wanting to paint it myself, but my grandpa was in auto body repair and he is a really good painter, he did my old car in his garage, every qurtar panel in that car was replaced by cutting out and welding, so i no my car is in good hands and plus it will give me somthing to do this spring lol. Im also going to work on getting the talon pulled apart so that i can do a slow rebuild on the engine and transmission. take my time do everything right and spend a little money here and there to make her strong.

I say paint if first. Lots of people say performance performance performance, but driving around in a cancer riddin car is very enjoyable. Here's what i suggest...
Body work and paint
Suspension
Wheels
Engine and trans
Interior
Personally I prefer the look on people's faces when they get whooped on by what looks like a stock beater with a loud muffler. :twisted:

I'm with Joe on this one, the hell with the visual. Go with one of your performance options. The new paint is bound to get dinged the first couple months of parking in public. :cry:

Im thinking i might take my car to maco before B2N9 just so that i have fresh paint. Im getting enough money ware i should still be able to do some stuff and have some nice paint. I was just going to do it myself but i can prep the car myself and take it in to get sprayed for a decent price. After the snow is gone i think it is going in!
