    Looks like it has cancer, thats never good.

    I'm sure you'll have fun with the project.

    You can skip the ZZP coils, factory coils or nothing. They are the best coils hands down. Over sized rad isnt really needed unless you want to hot lap it all day everyday.

    Just go with stock coils and Delco wires, not sure how you'll get the monsoon to work with the aftermarket stuff maybe just get a aftermarket deck, 40th-daytona spoiler requires the matching trunk lid, and a repaint most likely. I'd skip the pace setters and a trany is definitely in your future.

    Enjoy, but check out the Sills and pull back the carpet in the trunk and check the rear strut towers.
