    my friends are planning on getting me something for my birthday, but i just cant decide what i want, so please feel free to look at my mod list and tell me what else i could use. my list so far:

    1. whiteline 27-29mm adj swaybar (do i need front endlinks?)
    2. legacy shift knob and some interior bits
    3. fix my broken O2 sensor LOL
    4. buy some tools so that i can start working on my car (i have NO tools so far)
    5. Xbox 360 and forza motorsport 2!!
    6. prodrive springs (but this requires alignment.. however, it WILL put my noltec camber plates that has been sitting in my house for a LONG time.. if somebody can take josh booth's off, i would be a happy man)
    7.ALK (but i might auto-x sometime later)
    8. get some motul brake fluids and install my brake linings with it.
    9.save the money for bigger stuff

    OMG, i need help guys... so many options. i would really like to do the prodrives, but i cant find anyone that can help me undo josh's springs and stick it on my car. (he has coilovers, so we can just swap the whole suspension.. i just gotta attach my camber plates on the front ones)

    you'll never understand your car, if you don't know how to at least do basic stuff with it.

    protune sounds like a good idea... will it be worth it on an engine with 100K miles and a broken 02 sensor? i think i`m gonna go see him after i get the 02 sensor fixed.

    Tools! BTW, tools aren't $200 for the essentials. You could fix the O2 sensor and get tools with the rest. Set of deep metric sockets, metric wrenches, torque wrench, and a cheap socket ratchet set is a good place to start. Jack stand and/or ramps are also good.

    I'm goin to vote #4 also... If you don't have the necessary tools to do roughly (obviously w/ it's limitations) anything you want to your car, then you're always going to be relying on someone else... Plus - there are few feelings as good as being able to go grab your own set of tools as opposed to using someone else's... Just my 0.02...

    A $200.00 hooker isn't too shabby, not on the list, but maybe it should be?

    i vote #4 also.
    having tools on hand comes in handy and mine have already paid for themselves.

    I'm really beginning to get the picture that he doesn't want tools...

    Again, fix the O2 and then tools - I think that's obviously the most popular option on here. ;) That and pay him back...haha
