Just for fun....
Since we don't see too many polls around here, I'd thought I'd post one just for the fun of it. Humor me people, I'm working 6 day weeks the rest of the month and I need to keep my sanity.

Re: Just for fun....
Who's afraid of a little rain? I just put one hand on the wheel, the other on the shifter and all my faith in a set of Dunlop's.

Re: Just for fun....
I'd get a BILLET ALUMINUM SHORT SHIFTER from the Fiero store, put on a Hearst T-handle, and maybe buy some sweet MSD or Mallory high performance ignition parts.

Re: Just for fun....
400 bucks? well that's not enough to even start on the suspension.....so the first thing I'd buy is the underdrive pulley, short shifter is really nice....i make my own though....then a K&N filter, Bosche platinum +4 plugs, and I guess the rear sway bar and that would get you started on the suspension.

Re: Just for fun....
I have to say when it comes to performance plugs on GM cars I've had the best luck with AC Delco Rapidfire plugs (Rapidfires are a bit more high performance designed then the traditional AC Delco plugs installed at the factory) I have installed both Bosch platinum plugs in my Beretta (RIP, even if it was a lemon) and Autolite platinum in My wife's Grand Prix (It has now moved on to another owner) and both cars ran like s*it until I put AC's back in them.
You could buy some nice 17" tires with $400 but you'd have to save more money to buy the rims. Damn cars... worse then drugs at times. There should be a 12 step program for people like us.... HI, my name is Bob, and last week I whored myself to pay for my new exhaust headers...

Re: Just for fun....
What about some lowering springs and KYB shocks and struts?.....Koni's would be nice, but out of the 400 dollar range. And you're right Ragtop, sometimes I wish it were that easy to make some quick cash to pay for this stuff. Almost makes you feel like a crackhead!

Re: Just for fun....
A tune up, wires, plugs, distributor cap, coil, ignition modual, pickup coil (this all assume that the distributor is in A-1 shape), (new distributor if not) new sensors, O2, MAP etc. That should take care of $400 easily.
