That's a good start. Get some big ticket (read: real) mods and see how you like it. What transmission do you have? If you have an auto, get a converter.

I haven't been able to drive mine after I did Lid+FRA. It was/is in storage.

Is an automatic. Don't know the brand of lid. Bought it used for cheap. A lid is a lid for the most part.

So it is an auto? Save up about $1,000-$1,500 (or less, depending) and get a converter and sticky tires!
