2022 update! I put an iS lip on and treated the shadowline trim with a magic liquid that made it black again.
I also changed out the injectors for some M30 19# units, which has produced a very radical change in drivability. The car used to idle very poorly and burn/spit a lot of sooty oily condensation out of the tailpipe on startup. It looks like the injectors I got with the motor were not closing when the car was off, so they were pouring gasoline down the cylinders and breaking the oil ring seal. Hopefully this has not accelerated any wear in the motor..
In any case, it smells a *little* better now. Still not 100%, and it still needs some motor love, but at least it can idle and the smoke clouds when you launch it have gotten a bit smaller.

Thinking cd changer (Nakamichi) to set off the Borbets, at least a visor holder (Case Logic).

update: dailying, now with Konis and H&R OE Sports (with some extra spring pad help in the back). And borrowing some Borbets for true 90s style.
