Getting my car back together is my main goal.

Painting these and getting them on. and getting the rest of the speakers and the damn interior back in the car.

Just got the Z a couple days ago and so far i'm pretty much content with it as is. It came to me with an injen intake, cf front strut bar, white gauges with "z24" on them that glow red, clear heater knobs with the white heater knob panel and the dashlight dimmer panel is also white with "z24" on it. I like the 03+ Ls sport chrome rims so I'm in no rush to get the new ones and I like the black/red stock interior. But aside from that I'm gonna work on the exterior lighting and minor exterior stuff. Black TYC taillights, cf rear trunk panel from Rksport, Black angel eye+projector headlights, cf side mirrors with led signals, and cf door pillar covers. I might do some interior painting but not sure. I just put a new red/chrome/cf shift knob, clear corners for now and a euro antenna on it. That's it for now, I gotta work on getting it registered

Ha Ha... I love moochin off my rents. Its a beautiful thing to be able to afford what i got. Then again my rents are divorced and i have to deal with that emotional good ness of not having a dad around. But he has to pay a good chunk of my tuition so for 2 years of college I only have 3,500 worth of student loans...

Probably working my ass off this summer and save up for a new car. I dont think tis worth it to deck out my cavvy now with it being the old 2.2 and sedan and 223,000 km's. I was thinkin of savin a couple grand and getting an 01-02 cavvy z24 or not, coupe tho. Then i can goto town

Amen to that brother.

paying off the massive amount of debt my cavalier has put me into and selling it. Its not worth it to mod anymore to make it faster. Ive realised these cars have very little potential without spending lots of money once you get to a certain point.

Screw paying rent on apartments, Bought a house and got a TON cheaper mortage than most people's rent. And i'm only 19

I have just about done everything i want to do with it, and im happy with the point shes at. Ive been itching to move out for months. Plus I make enough untaxed money through my art that Ill still be able to mod.

This is on my "summer" driver ("85 Corvette). I decided to start with cleaning up the calipers and rotors.
Here's a before pic;

And here's the after pics;

And with the wheel on (car hasn't been equalized yet, so suspension is still up);
