Seicento - just replace whatever breaks with heavier duty stuff.
Olds - new motor is designed, got some small bits together, just waiting on funds for the rest of it (hopefully in October). New gearbox to take it into account. New back axle. Brake upgrade is a slight possibility.

My CTR is being serviced Thursday. It's having some new grooved discs and yellowstuff pads on the front. I will one day replace/refurb the alloys and would like to fit a nice (but not too loud) exhaust.
I'd love a JRSC kit, but I have nowhere near enough money.

Not really an upgrade but getting my arse in gear and get car mapped.
Problem is I am getting tempted by a larger turbo before I do

All maybe's but in order of priority/likelyhood-
1) Whiteline ARB
2) Pannel filter
3) Wheel refurb, maybe including a colour change to dark silver
4) Remap (unlikely)
5) Cat back exhaust (unlikely unless the current one dies)
