Birthday coming up, suggestions?
my birthday is coming up in about a week and im looking for some suggestions as a birthday gift to myself.
Id like to keep it below ~$200.
this is what i have so far, any suggestions? I was thinking lug nuts, but the only ones im really in love with are the Rays Formula lug nuts and they are over my budget.
Engine:
Race Roots HKS Hi Power replica
New Mazda Ignition + NGK Spark plugs and Blue Wires
MazdaSpeed Cold Air Intake
Racing Beat Midpipe
Exterior:
RMagic replica eyelids
Clear Corners
Custom Tow Hook License Plate Relocation
25mm spacers
Suspension/wheels/tires:
Stance GR+ Coilovers
08 40th anniversary wheels
General Gmax AS03
Interior:
GROM audio aux port
Custom EVO4G Cellphone mount
PLX Kiwi Bluetooth OBDII
Torque App Android
AutoExe Steering wheel wrap With red stitching
RedlineGoods Alcantara Shift boot with red stitching
Misc:
Custom Polycarbonate Clear Intake Tray
Custom Polished Front Strut Bar
my general guideline is that if its not performance/safety/maintenance and its just a shiny "thing" to have, id atleast like for it to be visible.
I dont think i could find a shift **** better than oem if i tried, not interested in any aftermarket or the light up ones.
Car is too low for under-chassis bracing, id scrape it over speedbumps/my driveway.
I think pulleys are a waste

The X is silent
For all I know you may be qualified to teach such a thing, so don't take it personally if it is the case...
Have you considered a performance driving course? Could be fun, educational, and allow you to enjoy your car a bit more. That's what I would do if my car were already looking hot.
Happy Birthday

Maybe a sick pair of suede racing gloves for that extra grip on that suede wheel you have.
Maybe a syncro saver?
Or short shifter from my contact if he still has it?
Also, you need to update your signature.

Nice set of gauges for interior (if you're into that sort of thing, oil p, water p, oil t, etc.) and an eneos tranny/diff fluid swap :D. OR, I just ordered 1 a few days ago and it looks sick. A digital torque wrench from brownline. It's not actually for your car but it will make working on it a ****ton easier!
Right now i use the app "torque" to get all my data, fuel pressure, oil pressure and oil temp would be the gauges i would get since i cant get them from torque. my current setup of gauges on the app consist of coolant temp/intake temp/rpm/header temp/MAF flow rate/fuel % remaining.
a digital torque wrench sounds fun.

He had a SS last time I checked. I think for under 200. Shoot him a text. His 8 was pretty hooked up man. ask him what he has lol. Maybe you could do both the Syncro save and the SS if he is selling it for cheap enough (and still has it).
