Leave it alone, save, and do the upgrade when you have the parts/money. Or just leave it stock and live with the level of performance.

If you're going to upgrade, don't screw around. The waste is exponential the more intermediate steps you add.

Don't cheap out. It ALWAYS costs more when you try to cheap out.

If you're daily driver needs a front end rebuild, and/or a trans or something, do you sweat over those costs to a point of pinching pennies?

As for 17+ wheels. Yeah. You WANT 17+ wheels. Vette brakes. Yeah. You WANT big brakes. Why is that not understood? It's not a drawback, it's what you really want anyway. It's the cost of doing biz/upgrades. Accept it. Once you're past all that crap and are able to enjoy the car you love it's all downhill. Just do it.
