Building Advice From Stock Up, Want to upgrade a stock 6G... Options

[ikey_karapat]

First up I have a Stock 96' E-ST202; I am currently putting together a list of materials I need to bring it up a few notches. I have just about 6 months before I start working on it, so I want to do as much research as possible so I don't have issues when I start work. Also I'm planning on doing a lot of the work myself with the help of my mechanic. Last thing; I live in the Caribbean so my Celi is Japanese ... Please anybody feel free to say what you think, I need real honest and straight advice...

Here are my ideas so far:

Engine:
For now I only want to convert the Automatic Transmission to Manual because I just can't stand that lazy automatic...

Exterior:
-Full body kit (suggestions please)
-18" Rims w/proper tires
-Not too obvious but nice rear wing
-Maybe change headlights and tail-lights (something shiny-er)
-Lambo Doors

Interior
-Leather seat covers or racing seats
-Double DIN head unit (Touch Screen, DVD, MP3, etc...) Thinking of Panasonic CQ-VD6503U
-New mids (possibly explods), tweeters and two 8" subwoofers in the rear
-Carbon fiber dash panels, and door controls

Please any advice or opinions is welcome, thanks much....

if you're going with lambo door get the invader kit it goes nice with lambo doors
wheels go with 17 with 215/45/17
headlamps taillights go with JDM projectors and JDM highs + JDM taillights
get a duck tail instead of a wing, the stock wing don't look good with invader and teh TRD or GT 4 wings are big and you sadi you don't want that.

for the interior you have everything well selected I 'd just say go with racing seats so they match the aggresive look of the body kit.






that's forkee's car. I'm sure he doesn't mind to have a new lover of his car
