* Billet Cam (specs to be disclosed at a later date)
* HD valve springs * J3 tuning on E85/98 fuel * 3" mandrel exhaust with 100cpsi hi flow cat * Modified collector on 4480's to suit 3" cat * 2400rpm hi stall This will be the last of my power mods, unless I strike it lucky and inherit stupid amounts of cash. lol After the above is done, buy a more modern daily car and use the AU as a weekender.

- finally fit chrome inner door handles
- tinted windows - new tyres - upgrade diff to a 3.45 LSD (so I can easily get a speedo transducer so the speedo reads correctly!) - Whiteline 27mm front swaybar - cam upgrade (doubtful) - custom tune (only if EVERYTHING above has already happened) Apart from that, just keep it clean and enjoy!

1. DBA slotted fronts & bendix ultimate pads all round
2. finally get my futura grill resprayed 3. fit an xr rear spoiler 4. get a new exhaust tip, the rusty one is starting to ruin the looks. 5. clarion 5x7's, hard to find at a reasonable price. 6. fit leather fairmont seats. apart from that relatively small and cheap list, no major plans till i get my full license.

Just getting the TE back on the road would be fantastic start.
As for the Ghia window tints, bigger brakes and seriously thinking boost. |

I think Whoosha should go for the TS body kit... cause we all know how bad he wants a T series and that might be as close as Mrs Whoosha will let you to having one
