USA New from sw Florida! Gen 4 Camry.

Hey, i joined a few months ago back in feb and decided that i should introduce myself seeing that i have many a question regarding my Camry, and was hoping that i would get to know some of you a little bit more . I'm 19 and have a 98 Camry XLE (the letters are in gold...oddly enough, i dont get why). What i've done since i got the car: (my first, and i plan to keep it for a long long time...i really like it) get a new paint job (black), limo tinted windows, blue headlight bulbs (plan to use leasauce's diy for a retrofit here soon), did some mechanical work like replace my rack n pinion and a fuel injector, got a sysem in there and it sounds pretty nice (JVC hd deck, tsunami cables, comp cvr 12's, kicker 750zx), in preparation for the TRD s/cer which i just purchased from PtBaller i ran catback dual exhaust (quad tips ), and to top it all off i ghetto rigged an autozone cone filter as somewhat of an intake. I was ready to further the modding and i rear ended someone . 4K worth of damage to my car, somehow that wasnt 80% of its value and i got it fixed which cost me a grand....and set me way back on my plans. so here I am again somewhat recovered from that and plan to keep moving.

Future plans (all within this year hopefully)
1. high flow fuel pump
2. pulse iridium plugs (are pulse plugs as big a deal as they say?)
3. install the s/cer (its been sitting in my garage for 3 months already)
4. a real intake!!
5. a new timing belt (it's never been changed )
6. hopefully i'll find a TRD bodykit (i like its non flashy nature).
7. retrofit hid projectors
8. some sort of interior work (odometer color change, diff colored lights, etc...)

(as if i haven't said enough already) i'm also a noob to most of this so i would appreciate any help i could get as far as info goes. I'm not looking to have a crazy modded car...just something that looks good and is decently fast. (the dependable part is already taken care of ). i'll have some pics up soon.
