just wonderin what i should do 1st to my 93 mustang lx hatchback with a 2.3L in it. its pretty much stock and i want a new pipe comin out the back of it, but it needs a new suspension, and a brake upgrade, and id like to put a transmission in it...what to do 1st? whatever i do ima have to save up 4 it. Money runs tight.

What are you trying to accomplish with the car? Are you planning on turbo charging it or anything? Honestly, if its driveable, I would drive it while you save up for a fox body 5.0.. Those 2.3's were like 90hp at the crank. You dont really need to upgrade breaks or upgrade suspension unless they are broken and need to be replaced.

And welcome to the forums.

if you need new brakes, i would suggest getting them. it aint much fun having a car that cant stop.
bein that its a 2.3, you are not going to impress very many people with it, so if you want to put money into it, fix the suspension up so you can at least offer a smooth ride. unless your transmission is shot, theres no need to waste money on this, unless you have long term plans for the car that involve turbocharging or converting it to a 5.0+
