    Default Your summer modification plans?

    Well seeing as how it's getting nice and warm out now, and that brings back all the project cars and daily drivers to the streets, I was wondering what everyone has planned over the summer for their cars? I know alot of people plan winter months to work on the car, as it's off the road anyways, but I was more thinking what everyone is going to do small/mild over weekends and such.

    It isn't impressive, but I thought I'd post my plans for the next couple months...

    '87 Accord..
    -Engine swap from my donor car.
    -Transmission swap from my donor car.
    -Strip the interior panels from my donor (blue) and dye them (black) and if it works, stick 'em in my original car.
    -White gauges
    -Red out tail lights
    -H4 headlight replacement
    -89 front bumper with integra lip.
    -GSR integra rims, the fat 5's.
    -Repaint bumpers and side trim
    -Custom reverse lights
    -89~ prelude front seats /or/ se-I front and rears.
    -tint (25%)
    -flat-black hood buldge paint.
    -paint valve cover
    -paint carb cover
    -NGK plugs
    -Accel coil
    -MSD leads
    -install my stereo
    -10" rockford sub
    -pioneer amp
    -clarion 6" door's
    -clarion 6x9 rears
    -pioneer deck
    -Stick my logo on the hood, or windshield
    -get a BEYOND.CA sticker for the window, and a 3geez.com sticker as well.

    After all that is done.. I'm going to collect the parts I need for..
    -EFI swap.
    -B18 intake manifold.
    -civic CAI
    -5 speed manual swap
    -Prelude 4-2-1 headers.
    -se-I rear rotor brake swap from drums
    -powerslot slotted rotors
    -AEM pads

    Uhhhmm Aside from that I think the car is going to stay pretty much where it is..

    As you can see I'm not going for all-out performance.. More reliability with some better breathing.

    Post your plans !
