Dithering...

I keep telling myself I'm debating whether to buy a WRX or fix
up my 94 SE-R. During the last four or five months of internal debate
I have, done the following for my SE-R:
new water pump and belt
new hose in gas tank area (no more gas smell when I stop)
300/200 springs (group deal)
KYB AGX's
rear control arms urethane bushing set
slow leak in tire fixed
four wheels balanced
four wheel alignment
front driver's side axle (Raxle's)
firewall and dogleg motor mounts (stock)
fixed A/C freon leak, evacuated and recharged A/C
new dashlights dimmer switch
new fan switch
new resistor (?) - the thingy for the HVAC that resides behind
the glovebox
new windshield
new sun visors
new Sylvania "SilverStar" bulbs for headlights
new fog lamp lenses and bulbs
replaced stock wimpy horn with two (a Blazer horn (junkyard - $5),
and an XTerra horn (from dealer - $14 plus change))
And today I ordered, from Courtesy Nissan
Big Brake Upgrade Kit
Front STB
air filter
oil filter (2)
fuel filter
platinum spark plugs
spark plug wires
distributor cap
distributor rotor head
Near-future plans are:
Rear STB (group deal - can't wait !)
Good paint job
good aftermarket stereo (that will play MP3's)
new floor mats.
So -- Looks Like I'll Be Keeping The SE-R For A While (smile)... That's a lot
of stuff, but a lot of it was long-needed repairs I had just put off and lived
with...
The dealer can't even get his hands on new ones for the classic. Does anyone
have any good recommendations for floor mats for a classic ? Ideally they'd
be
charcoal carpet.

94 SE-R finally getting the attention it deserves.....
