I did a little math the other day.. For what I've dumped into my 944 I could have built an LS swapped FC rx7.

I feel your pain (after 10 years of ownership), and all I have to show for it is a stock na 944. At least you've got an S2 swap. I keep twitching to help the fofo along.....got to stop and tell myself to put money into the FRS. it's more logical.

And didn't you learn on dorki that rule number one is "never add it up"?

Need some good advice on vinyl or clear bras. I plan on using a sticker bomb vinyl on a front lip and was wondering if I could use a spray on it to give it a nice seal and protection, and if so what should I use. I also have intentions of using a clear vinyl or spray for my carbon fiber hood and trunk, any tips on that?

Put some Rexspeed extended mirrors, Rexspeed side vents, Sti Brembos, 5mm H&R spacers (extended studs) and grimmspeed intake on. Def feel the brakes, they are a ton better.

STi Brembos front and rear, or just front?

Did you previously live up by Cockeysville? There was a LSx 240 that looked just like yours without the decals up here a few years back. I found out the hard way that it had a LSx swap...

Just front. Got a hell of a deal, I also read our rears are fine. Even having sti brembo rears make it even more front bias. So for now I am happy with overall braking. I will let you know how it does once I can get it out on VIR.

Mocking up the wheels. Time to decide on tires.. next I'll have to remove the tires and paint.. then it's time to find some coilovers.
