It sounds like you might be doing the right thing. Congrats on getting a new job. Yes, all jobs have suck days. The higher the pay, the worse the suck, but the frequency is about the same.

I wonder about the wisdom of expensive upgrade parts for these cars. Once you start, you will keep breaking the weakest link, and eventually the body is the weakest link, then you throw it away.

Save your money, is my advice. Use the car to get you around, don't 'get around' to help you make the car. Put it normal steel brake lines that you buy for $5 and be done with it. Put a normal replacement gas tank in it. You'll never sell the car with a fuel cell.

Keep your a** in school, at least one real class. You can have the fall off, and you had the summer off I'll bet, but 6 months at your age is an eternity, and you can get totally off base in that time. You better be registered in January.
You can take comp, lit, calc, or chemistry at PSU or PCC and get full transfer credit pretty much anywhere.

And yeah, I know what I'm talking about.
