my sc400:
1995

t.b.,w.p.,tensioners, idlers, valve adjustment ( just check them to be safe), coolant flush , plugs, wires, roters , and caps, any leaks you might have, trans mounts? fluid? filter? really whatever you want to do its your car

What are you're future goals. First off are you going for engine performance or exterior appeal? Ar you going to go forced induction or not? What is you're overall budget? How comfortable are you with working on cars?

Good simple mod to start with would be a BFI airbox. Then headers and an exhaust.

Id go with suspension first. I dont know about you but I like a lowered, smooth riding car. Your ride will handle a lot better and look nicer than stock height with some coilovers or springs...

+1 on the BFI. +1 on the exhaust, any on a 400 sounds decent. HID's (LOW TEMP) suspension as well, and a nice set of wheels will get you a clean car.

rebuild the whole engine, replace all gaskets, rebuild the head, reaplace all seals, change all the oils and fluids. as for ur suspension change out the bushing on the arms, and around the suspensions, get new suspensions like they said, just to get the car to ride and perform like new before further mods might cost around 5-7000 good luck usless you can do it urself
