maintenance

transmission fluid 3x3 drain n fill w/ redline racing fluid
replace 3rd/4th gear transmission sensors/switches
cabin filter change
coolant drain n fill
brake fluid change
power steering fluid drain n fill
oil change? new filter

do a search around here for "an important conversation with my transmission" by 'i hate cars'

also search "racing fluid" that'll explain the importance of changing out your transmission fluid.

welcome

Nice, appears the previous owner loved to mod.
I would probably look into maintenance.
