had the chips in the windshield fixed by some random guy at a gas station for $20,sketchy as no other but did a good job
driver side window amp went bad,bought a whole used door and replaced it
push button start installed
car started acting up and revved between 0 and 2k rpms,wouldnt rev above 5k,ran really rich. MAF CEL code came on,replaced the sensor and it did not fixed,turns out it was the wiring,went through it to see where it was bad,replaced some of it and the problem was solved.I need to solder them to make it a permanent fix
ISIS coilovers-some say bad things about them but they ride pretty good,installed them wrong with the preload or whatever and Im working on fixing that problem

camber from lowering the car was great, so i purchased godspeed rear upper control arms(RUCA's) and installed them
thought the bolt was too short but it just needed to be tightened and everything turned out great
