welcome back...have your plans changed any? If you're making it into a show car...there shouldn't be a "little budget". That is if you're looking to win any trophies. If you're going to try out drifting, I wouldn't try to fix all of the dents and what not first.

the plan now is to make a daily driver that is reliable and looks good.

after the engine swap is complete, i'll need a new front end so i'll probably pick up a version select bodykit and some 20mm F and 30mm R fenders to cover up the dents. New hood and hatch is on the way, I'll paint the car and probably get some Rota P45R rims. drop it on some coilovers and go from there...maybe turbo it this summer, the new engine only has 87k on it.
