I haven't seen this years standard post yet so I'll start. I apologize if I just missed it!

Now that I'm about to take the car off the road 'til spring I started thinking about my winter to do list. Last years work included new suspension, sways and control arm bushings so I'm going to take it easy this year. I know I can't keep up with some of you guys. I've got my latest Mopar project going too.

* std oil and filter change
* inspect suspension front and rear
* bleed brakes
* recover Rod Birch subs (ordered wrong carpet)
* fix sunvisor that keeps popping out
* fix rattling sunroof (when open)
* drop tranny and figure out why it hangs up when decelerating/replace RMS/clean and regrease splines. I'm guessing that I will likely have to replace the whole works. At least the new 4 post lift will make this a little less cumbersome. I hope I don't regret just dropping the whole works.
* Inspect and change distributor drive belt and perhaps the power steering belt. I don't know if these have ever been done (70k)
* touch up rock chips

That will do it for now!

On my list: Drive it more!

Both of my cars love the cooler weather.

My goal at this point is to make it to January without spending anything on the car.

With my divorce, keep the car.

Sux. Chin up and I hope it works out for you.

Same here. I've seen friends go through this and life does get better once you're through the ordeal. It just takes a little time. I hope you can keep the Porsche!

Depending on how cold it gets (no heated garage)

- weight reduction: Heater Blower, SAI, Air bag, Stereo, knee pad
- ERP / Tarrett toe, kinematic and camber links
- RS Transmission mount
- Hard Wire Traqmate
- RS rear calipers
- Pads and Rotors all around
- Walrod rear bushings (Come On Chris)
I am sure other stuff will come to mind...... Depends on budget and time.

Maybe nothing but normal maintenance this year, unless Mr Walrod introduces his rear suspension bushings.

Normal maintenance is oil/filter change and brake fluid flush each winter.

I have an RS tranny mount sitting on the shelf, but I've been waiting for the clutch to go before I dive in.

Trophy, I hope you post a "how to" documentary when you do yours. I can use the help!

Lexan all around
New headders. Working on some that really make power.
Move as much weight forward as I can.
Re corner balance the car
Get a new set of race wheels.
Re-wire the car and seal off the fire wall up front.
Re paint the roof and rear bumper
Consider fiberglass rear fenders

I race PCA and a local track club. My local raceing class does not limit my weight so I want to add ballast for GT4 and take out weight for my local racing. Its amazing how much faster you are with even a few hundred pounds off the car.
