$1K I feel like spending on my 951
I just sold my n/a and now I want to get something nice for the 951 
I'm trying to decide what I should buy. I already have a fresh engine, 60-1 hifi, MAF, tial, LC-1 WBO2, maxtronic, MBC. My interior is nice, could maybe use a new dashboard. I also 2 sets of wheels I like and don't need to buy anymore.
I'm considering the ground control rear coilovers for $650 (which use a koni shock) I have recently rebuilt konis in the front and a front strut adjustable perch kit in a box. Would I need to buy the matching from coilovers from GC (@ ~1,00-1,300) or could I just get the matching front springs?
Also thinking about 968 mirrors/door handles.. but then again my car could use some minor paintwork in a few places, but right now spending that much money on something that bothers me that little isn't worth it
what do you guys think

You could wrap the dash your self. You are talking about maybe $50 out of pocket to do so.
I won't knock Rob's set up, as it's very VERY nice looking. But it's not really necessary with the 85.5+ dash, as it's an easy wrap with no stitching required.
Do the suspension, it's at least a mod you can feel and enjoy.

I assume you already have a 3" but if its standard i would have to say full exhaust and i would say 4" rear .
then i would say Lsd and yes rear coil overs, front sway bar

I'm also setting aside some money for an "emergency 951 fund" but I think I decided on the ground control coilovers.. I've done some searching and seen 550 lbs in the rear 400 in the front seems to pop up. What do you guys suggest? When I can afford to start breaking things hopefully I'll get some track time, but for now its my daily 100% street car - but I still want something that is "trackable" with a pretty much stock weight + my 200lbs hopefully mid 300rwhp 87 951
