Rewire the sound system
Clear all the crap out thats built up in there
Lower the car on springs
A few other touches

good luck with the sump gasket. if it was anything like mine was, the gasket was completly shot and i ended taking a rubber mallet to it and it still wouldnt budge so ended using a crow bar and prizing it off and ended up buy a new sump for £90.
