I wanna say wheels, diff and coilovers.

Got this car SPECIFICALLY to get sideways in.

however, in two years it's been OFF jackstands for roughly 150 miles. I should have started out with a better condition car but i learn more by fixing up horrible junkers....

 

yep, you learn more (especially about THAT car) and then you know that everything you replaced is in good condition and SHOULD last you a while.
the only thing is, for every part you replace you discover 2 more that could use replacement as well :P

 

does getting the car to run after a year of sitting count as modding? if not then my first mod is putting straight pipe 2.5 inch in a n/a

 

removed the interior about a month ago

 

Repair the rust underneath...you KNOW its there. Don't be afraid to look.

 

Not on mine
Never winter driven rocks.

 

Pretty sure mine was new battery cables. No problems with the old. Just thought that my battery voltage would improve.

 

OK, it took a little thinking, 18yrs is a long time, but i figured it out. My first mod was to put a spoiler on the back of my 87 Turbo. I got one that looks alot like stock but didn't cost me the $900 that mazda wanted. It was only $300 or so. AND when I was waiting for them to bolt it on i looked through there catologs. I dicided not to purchase the $350 pacific moonroof. wish I would have.....

 

they're not "there"

 

replaced the clutch...then straightpiped and added headers when i bought the car with apexi N1'S...my ears thanked me when i bought the full racing beat exhaust system

 

Greedy Type-S BOV

 

I forgot about my vacuum operated 6port actuators as well. Those happened before the MS.

 

Actually, "their".

I did the classic ebay cone filter hot-air-intake. It only cost $12 and I got to feel like I was a badass.

I have since spent ridiculous amounts of time and money on it, but it's still N/A, and so not badass.

 

My first "newbie" mod? Hmmm. I think it was a clutch, cause I blew out the original one beating the snot out it.

 

Full tune up and replace the headunit, previous owner had a cheap walmart stereo

 

^same thing plus braided oil cooler lines, exhaust system and pads/rotors all at once. (all before putting it on the road in under a week)

 

Why did my **** get deleted? I guess the mods do not like me bad mouthing Racing Beat

I will repost.

Racing Beat rev II exhaust. It gave me detonation which blew my engine. I called them and they claimed to have no clue that would happen but there was no detonation before the exhaust so you do the math. Make sure if you buy this system you do some kind of fuel supporting mods. I was a noob and I did not know and Racing Beat just wanted their money and did not care to help me.
