What should I do next?

Can I run a Power FC on my automatic?

Also, I have about 2K to spend on this bottomless pit we call a car!! What do you guys think i should do?

Its a 93 with 35K on the motor, automatic, rest of the mods in the SIG. Advice would be greatly appreciated.

here are just a few minor things that won't cost a lot but will add a little flare or reliability.

1. fan mod, itll cost you like 5 bucks and there aren't any downsides to it
2. aluminum AST
3. convert your tails to 99' spec, should cost like $30 max.

You can but I believe you lose the HOLD function which is a must for most Auto owners.

Biggest bang for the buck? Auto -> Manual conversion.

Honestly? I would do what I posted in my first message. Then, think about the goals you want for your car and how much money you are willing to sink in it. Once you have that done, start saving for what you want. I actually have an Excel spreadsheet of all the things I want to purchased for my car. I just keep checking them off as I go.

I know when I started changing the suspension, it felt like a different/better car.

An intercooler would be a nice. Get the important things first. I agree Mahjik, suspension is great, alot more fun to drive.
