Thumbs up gonna fix and upgrade my SE

the other day it was rainy out and i went drifting, well anti lock brakes dont work at 35 mph sideways....oops.......straight into a curb, i messed up the control arm, end link, tension rod and bushings, and the tie rod and bushings, not to mension part odf the steering rack, but no body damage, my rims are gonners on both front and back, of the right side, well i have cash in hand and am gonna use my parents credit card to oreder all the necesarry hardwaye and new bushings for the parts i need, with a new sway bar and bushings from victoria british without shipping its gonna be 204.00 dollars, so that will be nice, all the other parts im pullin off my gsl, (control arm tension rod, tie rod and steering rack...) then i have some cash left over so i figured that i might as well buy my exhaust, so i went to rb 134.00 for there race header without shipping and 15.00 without shipping for the gasket that they so conveniently left out.......and im gonna take out the air pump and cat and replace with some pipping, that will be about 50 dollars, so im up to 410 dollars now of new parts on my se untill i sell it.....for the rite price....does this sound sweet or what can anyone get me any of these products for a lower price, i have a 85 se and its stock. any sway bar or unused bushings for cheap ..................and how do i take off my air pump...

Hey, if you're gonna start hacking up the GSL let me know - I'm looking for the door pulls inside the handle of the door (little black plastic deal) as BOTH of mine are broken..... still figuring how someone did that.

AntiLock brakes on a first gen? Are you that proud of your pedal pumping skills, or did you shell out the dough for an aftermarket system? Spill it!

And sorry about your accident. It always sucks to see your baby in pain.
