well rwd is fun from time to time, thats the only thing i can see myself missing about the z... i also liked the low rpm cruising on the highway and still having power to pass easily... and a 6spd... ok so thats 3 things

Mod wish list is ETS quiet cat back, cosworth drop in, and a tune from ER, and thats all I'm gonna do for power for a while. I'll prolly get this done within a month or 2.

Then I'm gonna do little crap like a short shifter, shifter bushings, some interior bits and pieces, wheels spacers, etc... maybe the magnus clutch slave cylinder

I'm not planning to get to crazy with the suspension, I wanna wait for GTWorx to come out with their springs and prolly get those along with the whiteline roll center kit, maybe rear sway.

I like the stock wheels, so those will prolly stay. I wanna paint them flat black or matte black eventually.

then after all that's done, I'll get back to making more power. I think 310-320 whp should keep me entertained for a while

That's the plan anyway, we'll see how it goes

Mitsubishi claims the wing is different and the exhaust is louder.

A difference I noticed is the clutch take up is different, it's now at about the middle of the pedal travel, as opposed to near the very top, a great upgrade IMHO. That has me thinking maybe the clutch slave cylinder isnt plastic anymore, so if it's some sort of metal now I won't have to upgrade to the Magnus unit.

I'm glad it doesn't have the chrome mirrors though...
