But so much of this is obvious. I'm honestly surprised you couldn't think any of this up yourself.
So, what's your budget for being economical? I'm curious now.

Nitrogen acts differently under compression....
I'm sure that tire would have at least been leaking after that.
Yeah most of this is obvious. It's still fun to talk about, get people's estimates, and maybe pick up a few small things I didn't know along the way.
In terms of economical....I don't think I'd want to spend more than about 6k on the car. Replacing the exhaust, rims/tires, intake, possibly headers, and the seats is do-able for that price so long as I do my own work. That'd net me some decent weight loss as well as a little extra power and sound. The wheels and exhaust would look pretty good too.
