Built Tranny
S60 Rear
White Leather Interior
Double Din and Subthump T- Top Box
Install the SFC I've had sitting for about 6 months
Oh, And Get my Truck Running again so I can stop driving the T/A to work.
EDIT: Oh Yeah, and new wheels too!
And for the Camaro: Sell Her

Well last year was going along great and then ran into a lot of little glitches. Had custom tips made to replace the CME tips and had them installed. But still having issues with the steering. I had most of SD tune locked in just wanted to take the car to the track and try the new cutout and intake but because the car wanders so badly it never got done. The clutch was starting to slip also so it is in the shop getting a McCleod RXT and a Quick Time bell housing. Hopefully with the new intake and the upgrade in exhaust the heavy pig will make it into the 10's if we can figure out why there is so much play in the steering.

Might add (underdrive pulley, tourqe arm) or change a few small things to try to go deeper into the 11's while staying S.I. for now. Also have some fun with it while the gopro is hanging off the side of it.

make it not suck to drive:
- going from tilton 7/8 to 13/16 master cylinder so pedal isn't as insanely stiff
- swapping out whining 3.73 rear for stock 3.42 I picked up (rear is good, just loud)
- wiring reverse lockout correctly (cheated on swap, wired to brake switch temporarily)
- replacing lower a arms with 30k mile set to minimize clunks
- replacing peeling/cracked/chewed up steering wheel with one in better shape
- autotrix passenger window fix kit (have had it for 2 years, never installed it)
- fixing exhaust leaks
