Nope, but I am an old head.

I "upgraded" when stuff was worn out, except for the CAI, did that right away, and the tinted windows, because southeast Texas is hot as fuck. Got an alarm because it is a popular car to steal. I could not get rid of those SHITTY stock tires fast enough, some sort of limestone compound in those stock Michelin all season crapola tires, Michelin tires are usually pretty good. Yokohama AVS intermediates were a huge step up, Kumhos now. Got magnacore wires when I replaced the rotor and cap. Axxis brake pads eventually, wow did they work great, unkind to the rotors though.

I probably need to replace the shocks and suspension bushings, clutch and driver's seat getting worn, but what do you want with 160K miles. I replaced the radiator and hoses, and the clutch master cylinder, but those were stock parts. I figure I drive it until the wheels fall off then get something new, but there is not anything out there that really grabs me. Maybe a Lotus, but I sort of like having a trunk.
