To do list: everyones got one. So now that I'm finally back in a financial position to fix all the little things that have gone wrong with my car during the time I was flat broke, I whipped up this little list. (In no particular order of importance)
1. Drivers side window motor or regulator is shot.
2. Exhaust rattle while idling warm.
3. Broken driver side seatbelt guide.
4. Cracked driver side door panel. (yeah mine too)
5. Antenna motor fried.
6. Burning a decent amount of oil.
Not Bad for a 2001 TA with almost 100k on it.
Now would anyone happen to have the parts numbers for the seatbelt guide(Ebony), door panel(Ebony), window motor/regulator, or the Antenna Motor?
More importantly anyone have any words of experience from fixing any similar issues to those on the list that they would like to share before I start poking around. Thanks for anything you guys can come up with.

1. Drivers side window motor or regulator is shot.
Replace and get the hotwire kit
2. Exhaust rattle while idling warm.
This is probably a bad cat, the ceramic is rattling in there
3. Broken driver side seatbelt guide.
How did you break that? I think it just screws on the seat.
4. Cracked driver side door panel. (yeah mine too)
Replace it, I use armorall on mine they haven't cracked yet even in socal sun.
5. Antenna motor fried.
Are you sure the motor went bad, and not the antenna dried out of grease and is stuck?
6. Burning a decent amount of oil.
Check your PCV system or look into upgrading to the LS6 style, that saved mine.
Here ya go, I got a long list for mine as well.
-Replace broken dash vent
-Replace The plastic part on the seatbelt buckle itself
-Fix shitty stereo wiring so I have more than one speaker
-Rebuild the rear end since its making bad noises
.... It goes on and on haha

Install New Wheels and Tires (17x13 Black ZR1s and 335/35/17 tires on rear)
Install Monster Stage 4 Clutch
Install Built T56
Install Carbon Fiber Driveshaft
Rebuilt Moser 9" (Seal between Third Member and Case is leaking)
Finish Nitrous Install (taken WAY too long to get that done)
Retune/Dyno Pulls for Nitrous
Serious Detail before Winter (might even get a professional to do it)
This winter while she sleeps in the garage:
Install 6LE Gauge Overlays
Send Gauge Cluster off to be recalibrated for 200mph 6LE Overlays
Remove Stock Seats
Remove Old Carpet
Remove Stock Front Seatbelts
Install Weld-in Wolfe 6-Point Roll Cage
Install New GM Carpet
Install 6LE Racing Seats
Install 5-Point Racing Harnesses
Depending on the money situation come winter, I may get a whole new stereo system installed...everything from Head Unit to Amp to Speakers, nothing extreme, just something that is able to handle the volume I like.
