Hey Dane, I hit a bunch of the x's. Are these mods that you've done?

rdane 03-07-2004 08:06 PM

Mark, for better or for worse, I've done most of what has been posted in the three polls.

Emission 03-07-2004 08:33 PM

Great poll!

Scooter 03-07-2004 09:54 PM

Dane, a more appropriate poll for you would be to ask what haven't you done.

I checked all but three boxes. I bought wider tires, rebuilt not replaced my shocks,recovered my steering wheel & replaced the horn pad. I haven't replaced my lights because I'm still on the fence. I have H4s, so if I get the euro h4s , it would be a cosmetic thing. Kind of hard to justify $300. I will have new Ruf style bumpers on by the end of the year. & I don't think I have turbo valve covers. Got my new 15lb battery installed & wired in the smugglers box this evening.:D

How about the other two polls ;)

Mark Wilson 03-08-2004 10:49 AM

8.......

no place for " upgraded engine?" that's about all I've done.

rdane 03-08-2004 11:13 AM

try the other links...

Tim Walsh 03-08-2004 11:16 AM

Yep saw that thanks!

For the poll part that states (replaced/recovered or rebuilt the seats)
You might want to have one other that includes removal of rear seats.
This seems popular.

Thom, No 3.8?, no cam change?, how about a sliding scale for wheel/tire upgrades?;)

Hmmm, better than last time I checked, mostly due to the points given for my 2.7 liter upgrade I see!

Nice checklist again Bill-

Wait 'til I'm done with my newer car!

I've done some of these a couple times over.
