Sell it and buy a 180sx.

EDIT:

Alright, since this is all so serious:

* Sell the skyline

* Mod the hell out of it

* Top 5 finish in the daewoo series

* Do at least 5 hillclimbs and supersprints.

* End of year - buy own race car, prepare for next season

* Get Kelly racing daewoos next year due to marketing/ sponsorship potential

* Beat 1.55 at EC, 1.11 at Wakefield, 1.25 at Oran GP, 51 at Oran short

* Get to some interstate tracks! Come on vic or qld, organise a weekend track day so I can come over.

* Learn to do doughnuts on the grass with a bbq in the boot.

And probably some un-car stuff too.

3)Exhaust Done

4)Front spoiler and covers for lights

5)Recondition engine

6)Rust proof

7)I'm sure something will come along. No Ash, not a chev

Bike wise
