You should start saving some money and invest in a more modern Thinkpad.
It is commendable that you want to prolong the life of that oldie, but hardly practical.
Since it was built by Acer (not IBM), lots of parts are different from 'real' Thinkpads.

You can't overclock these machines, period.

You could put in a faster CPU and hard drive, more RAM etc. but I would recommend against it.
