for the Rabbit:
1: Coilovers (considering Stratmosphere's V-maxx kit @ $599)
2: New lower profile tires to stuff under the fenders once #1 is done.
3: Interior upholstery work, carpets, covering dash to match my Recaro seat once it gets recovered
4: GSX-R 750 Individual Throttle Body conversion
5: MEGASQUIRT standalone
other than that, I'm happy!
