So, im looking for opinions, ideas etc. I plan to paint the car first off, ill get a good deal by helping, as you can see the car is already in primer, so illl pretty much be paying for paint. I plan to paint it Obsidian black (subaru Color). and put on a side buldge formula hood i have. (I may check with my cousin, because he has an 82 recaro t/a and it might have an aluminum hood.)

I then plan on putting the 84 graphics on the hood.

Performance wise, im going with the ms3 cam and a set of prc 5.3 2.5 heads, i should get 200 for my stock ls1 heads with the upgraded springs, and i should be able to pretty much trade my cam for the ms3.
here is what it will sound like.

other than that, id like to do an HID headlight conversion, and fix my leaking rear hatch.


what do you guys think?
