Tires, tires, tires.
Then I'd get an exhaust system. All the while attending as many auto-x/driving events I could.

I'd say spend money on tires, and as many HPDE/Auto-x events as you can fit into your schedule. He likely doesn't want that advice either. /shrug

Actually I appreciate all the advice everyone's given me, I really wanted to save money but I did wanna fix up the frs just a bit. Just to stand out from the others here in corpus christi tx. But regardless, I am AT LEAST entering the auto x this coming month for sure. Just to try it out at least once before I start saving up to get outta dept. It'll be my motivation

stop tech brake lines, rotors, and pads. Then driver coaching. Then save up for some sticky tires, id suggest Hankook RS3's. After that I would do coilovers or springs. Hit me up if you need anything.

https://www.perrinperformance.com/sh.../pspinr005.pdf It takes a bit to push the new bushing onto the shifter, but if you wiggle it side to side it will slide on. Dont forget the lube too.

![]() I seriously think that going to any event should be the first thing anyone does in the car. Air up the tires to avoid roll over and feel the cars balance with the traction control totally off. It really makes you appreciate how good it is stock and what you feel it needs to suit your driving.
