How old are the suspension bushings? There is a pic of a car with 700 miles on it floating around (I posted it here) with cracks going completely thru the bushings.

If you hotrod it, you might want less compliance anyway.

Lots of the things on these cars are easily DIYable for more "sense of ownership" and lower cost. Or more street cred.

As r911 wrote, check the fuel lines FIRST! If these has not been repaired do it. These can leak and your car can catch fire. These can be repaired, you don’t need to purchese complete new (expensive) lines.
A little oil leak is just a nuisance, fuel is not.

Even if you don’t plan to work much by your self, recommend that you get Dempseys book, was it 101 Projects on 911 and also the Bentley service manual. Reading from these give you some understanding about your fine car if not familiar for you.
