Since you guys are bumping for me...

I am putting my car upgrades on hold for 2009, with the exception of getting the car street legal and selling the trailer, primarily because of the economy. Aside from it, I just don't do enough HPDE's to warrant having a car that can only be towed. Plus, it'd be nice to drive it around town, to meets, etc. To that end, I am adding wiring back in from JY cars, for headlights, flashers, turn signals, and license plate lights. I am not messing with the pop-up function on the headlights, and will instead make a manual prop until I can get some aftermarket ones. If you've never looked at it, you would be floored by the amount of complexity and wiring associated with having pop-ups.

Since I will not be doing any HPDE's this year, I am focusing more on autocross. I am adding some interior back for comfort, and hopefully it will get me into a more competitive class than X-Prepared, which is where the car sits now. I don't much care about classing, but I am picking up a co-driver and think that he does. He will be springing for some r-comps after driving my car for an event a month ago, as the only thing the car really needs is more grip. I am out-accelerating and out-braking my street tires, in both autocross and roadracing.

While re-doing my interior wiring, I am going to suck it up and paint the interior. I am undecided on whether or not to put carpeting in, and may just put some gold foil in instead. I'm looking for some manual doors, preferably in white, and already have panels in the garage. I am going to relocate my gauges from the cluster hood to the center radio/HVAC control area, and may spring for a nicer dash since I'll no longer need to drill holes in it.

I also have the shift surround and armrest to go in, but it might be a challenge mounting them since I drilled out all the plastic thingers you screw into.
