I've been guilty in the past of ordering a boatload of modifications and spending more time working on my cars than driving them, so I stretched out my plans for this car into a couple phases. I heard there is a sweet spot of horsepower for the s13 chassis and I'm looking forward to figuring out what the right amount of power is for me. I'm thinking:
Spring 2020
Maintenance
Repairs
Fix seating position for 6'2"
Low key mods that sharpen up the chassis (HLSD, springs, short shifter, etc)
See how much power I can make with bolt ons and the stock T25, don't be slower than my wife's car
Find some cool wheels so i can use today's best tires (225 and 17" smallest options in some cases)
Summer/Fall 2020
Be able to do some open lapping and drive the car harder without parts/brakes giving up on me
Find an OE-fit turbo (maybe GTX2867R) that supports about 300whp on pump gas but could make 350whp with cams and E85 if I ever decide to try later
Don't ruin the car or cut up anything
