I'll probably do this in like 2-3 years, right now I'm going to try and convince them to let me do the basic stuff... neons, dvd player.. hmm perhaps a new hood/bumper.
Everything? Geez, I'm thinking you could easily spend over $10,000 on just the engine (which engine by the way?) and transmission alone, and you still wouldn't have "everything".

It might make more sense for you to let us know the kind of modifications you have in mind. FWIW, unless you're talking about at least a couple of grand for a forced induction setup, virtually all "mods" will only net you a couple of HP at the most (and at the same time reduce your mid-range torque).

be more specific. think about things that will not hurt resale too bad as you can't have that much $$$$$ if parents pay insurance, etc. Tint, tasteful wheels, maybe muffler that doesn't stick out too much (just noise really), headlight films look nice and save headlights from damage. Take some time to detail car and maintain it so when you have real money, it will be a good palce to start----so keep it clean and tell your friends to clean up after sitting in it.

Really go over manual and check to make sure you are up to date wit hservice, clean and inspect everything. Like I said, once you get a good steady job and a place you can afford, your car will be ready for what is next.............suspension would be first on my list as a nice handling car is more fun to drive than a fast sloopy car...............just my input

Don't waste your keystokes, since I was suckered into responding I've figured out the OP called effierryey is an internet troll and/or wannabe spammer.
