basic mainentance

Is it just me or do the cars drive better after fixing the small things? LOL

Nothing major, but I recharged my AC, replaced a high beam light, and replaced the wiper blades and it just seems like the car is more enjoyable (obviously the AC makes a huge difference).

Sometimes it's worth it to forget about that next extra hp for the moment and work on the little things that make all the difference in the world.

Now, with that said, I think it's almost time for a couple mods, lol.

LOL, yeah, window motors definitely don't seem like their worth the work when your doing the job, but right after you finish then it makes the car 100 times better to drive!

It either makes the car 100x better to drive, or 100x less annoying to drive

I fix one thing and something else crops up. Not in the sense that I didn't notice it before, just something else actually goes wrong

Yeah, sometimes it seems to go that way. Fix one thing and then immediately have something else to do. I guess that's the problem with older cars. I'm trying to saty more on top of things right when they break instead of waiting months like I usually do. Hopefully that will help.
