Myabe I just expect too much? I worry about getting into the "grass is greener" mindset. Some mods might help the car, but I'm spending too much time and money on maint. to think about mods.
new balance shafts @ ~25k
new rear rotors and caliper @ 45k
new clutch and seals @ 60k (didn't cure chatter)
new IAC @65k
new struts @ 70k (but upgraded to Konis!)(incurable clunks since then :( )
on deck - new a/c compressor etc. @ 76k
on deck - new transmission at 76k (bad 3rd gear synchro & bearing noise)
I wanted to love this car the way I loved my '89 SHO, but it just leaves me cold. I hope I haven't grown out of the phase of being excited about a car.
enough griping.
Mike
