Lowering the suspension would help, especially with the weight reduction.
lol. All my interior is at the dump. My car is only worth 750 dollars now on the retail market. In another 4 years, I'm sure it'd be worth under 250, so I didn't feel bad about trashing all the interior since I'll be it's one and only owner.

I've been thinking about doing a power steering delete. Thing with my mods, as I have no mechanical skill, I have to pay for the work. If it's too much in labor, I don't do it because it'll take me so long to recoup that money in gas savings.

Also been thinking about lowering the car once I get the side skirts and front dam on, but instead I went with a complete factory replacement. Rides pretty high, but I think for the 300-400 dollars it'd cost to get drop springs put on, it again wouldn't be worth it in the gas savings.


Headed out to home depot today to attempt to find some plastic sheets to do my skirts and front air dam with. Wish me luck.
