I'm a college student, and don't have much extra money, maybe $500 to spend on the car for an entire summer's work. The mods I've done so far, and like:

Ford racing 9mm spark plug wires ($40)
new rims/tires 15" ($600)
SVT sway bar w/ poly bushings ($30)
Silverstar bulbs ($30)
Elky mesh in grille/bumper ($45)
some fogs ($20 for proburners, $50 for hellas)

I've done many other things like audio, etc., but there is plenty of things to do for cheap.

Yeah they're pretty good looking, but not all that different from the regular models and I definitely wouldn't say insanely fast.

first mod with 108k would be an engine rebuild. I'm usre the tranny ATX or MTX could use some work too

108,000 and your saying rebuild?

if he took good care of it, 108k is nothing.

Ditto. 138k burns no oil and runs perfectly. The only thing that I would replace would be the intake manifuld gasket. Also, if it's a pre-98, clean the intake as well. The EGR really clogs it up.
