Water pump
timing belt
ebay projectors
HID conversion
cfm billet shorty antennae
prothane dogbone bushings
cfm sts
new K and N cone filter for my K and N typhoon sri I have yet to install
workshop manual
and I still might order either a Borla, or the HKS Hi-power catback today, if not lunchbox delete

I spent 440 on the clutch/fw w shipping, just under 100 for the water pump and timing belt,
about 200 for the projectors and HID conversion together, the shorty antennae is on clearance for 10 bux free shipping!, the bushing were 30 with shipping, the sts was 140 i think plus shipping, the filter was like 30ish, i got the workshop manual for 35 with shipping on ebay when i costed like 130ish brand new, and the catbacks range from 400ish to 600ish. I personally like the HKS, but the looks are so controversial..... I dunno kind of a waste when it won't do anything.... Next month im finally ordering Tom's tune, painting my calipers, and getting tint

the only other thing is I hadn't driven the car all winter, and I go to drive it and the rear passenger side makes a weird noise....almost like a humming, it increases with speed and doesn't go away. ... I'm thinking wheel bearing or hub bearing???? I really don't know, gotta jack it up and take a looksy

yes that sounds like a wheel bearing...mine was doing the same thing last week before I had new ones put in =) (unfortunatly i have yet to hear it because nobody appearently can find me a axle seal for my SVT)

And I love my HKS btw and Ive had mixed comments about the look but nothing but good comments about the sound

You're really making me want to not pay off a credit card with my return and buy all the stuff I want.

Be strong Dan, be strong!

Can't wait to see update photos of your installs though

How much did parts run you? What about install time? Also, you can't even get an axle seal from a dealership?
