1. Get Car running
2. Replace all the bushings
3. replace springs/struts if needed (upgrade to coilovers if possible)
4. Rebello 2.7 engine (270hp crank)
5. 5 speed from a 280Z
6. LSD if I can find one
7. Fresh paint

One thing I would love to do, but is 99% likely not to happen is to get a 6 speed straight cut, dog engagement, sequential trans from Quiafe Engineering. I know how much the transmission would cost, and could probably save the money over the course of a year, but the fabrication needed to adapt it to the L series block and trans mounts would probably be a bit more than i could do. Doesn't hurt to dream big though. What is on that list though is things I definitely plan on doing. The first two will happen pretty quickly and the built engine could get bumped up the list depending on the state of the current engine.
Sure hope i don't find a rust bucket when i take a look at it later this week.
