Default post your 'to do' lists for your car here

It's late. I'm bored. So here's a semi-attainable 'to do' list for my car:

Engine
- proper intake (doubt I can find one for my car though)
- proECM chip
- lightened pulley set
- better sparkplugs

Exterior
- Ver. 4 bumper
- MY '99-'01 headlights
- '97+ hood (stick with low key L look or go for the hoodscoop?)
- stock RS grille
- genuine Subaru clear corners
- clear turn signals, sidemarkers (maybe)
- paint the door handles, side molding and side mirrors

Suspension/Braking
- RS or WRX rims
- a nice set of affrodable Kumhos
- STi 4-pots up front
- beefy swaybar
- rear strut tower bar

Misc.
- tint the windows
- get rid of the ugly plastic shift boot
- scrape out the sound deadening material

You guys got any plans for your car you'd like to share?

Brakes upgrade, mp3, seats, and I managed to swap from a coupe wing to a sedan wing. Cool as they are, I am afraid I'll have to pass up the L E D washer nozzles.

I wish I could post mine, hehe. But I keep changing my mind every 5 minutes about what I'm gonna do next. Before I bought the car I knew it'd be like this when coming to modifying it.

I keep an excel file. It has stuff I've installed on the car, stuff I bought but haven't installed, and stuff I want to buy. I list how much it was, where I would get it if I don't have it yet....pretty neat. I just added my plan for brake upgrades to it this morning.

hey Doink, if PROJECT MAYHEM goes according to plan, i will have all 3 of these up for sale amongst other things...can't give you a specific time frame, but i'll keep you in mind for first dibs.

-JCS intake w/ a professional looking ghetto fab extension and bracket to hold it down.
-N1 lightened crank/alternator pulley -- p/s pulleys don't fit our cars...
- someone helping me may be speaking for the proECM, but if not...that's going too. won't work with what i'm planning.

i can't share any details for my new plan, but rest assured once it's done, you shall all know.

Really? So you just have 2 of the 3 pulleys on your car? Wonder what makes the pulleys incompatible with our engines...

Before I even got my WRX, I was so anxious to mod it that I wanted to buy parts for it before I got it, haha. Glad I didn't cuz I've changed my mind too many times. Couldn't find the parts I wanted anywayz, hehe.

Hmm... in addition to RE-installing the UD pulley and SBC-id (taken off for a service trip), I need to:

1. Get the sack to drill/tap port for EGT guage.
2. Build me a boost-monkey
3. Wait for warm weather to put the Tarmacs back on ( they were on for 4 days, but that action brought two big snowstorms quickly back to back so I put the stockers/snows back on. )
4. kartboy solid droplinks
5. Maybe a adj. rear swaybar, I'm undecided. I'll have to see how the wheels/tires are at the track.
6. Still want a unichip.

the number of splines on the gear that the pulley fits on to is different on the older cars. as i recall Braden at Suby Sports was working on making a set that fits the older p/s pump, although the weight difference is negligible. the real gains are on the crank pulley.
