for exhaust i would go with an x pipe with magnaflow or bassani mufflers, i would go with brembo brakes with 4 piston calipers drilled and slotted rotors checkrim clearance before you buy the brakes some take 17' rims others take 18' rims check with your dealer before buying.

slp has a nice power pac if you got the cash.

magnaflows.....I would have went with Brembo breaks,but they were a little out of my price range. I went with Baer instead and they work great ***after I had to have a part fabricated to make them fit properly***. Baer knows of the problem, maybe thay have fixed it themselves and if that is the case they are well worth it!!

if u wanna get power to the pavement get some gears, lower it 1.5" all around that is a good start

after u get that exhaust fixed id get some gears and sticky tires. best thing to get the power to the ground it some sticky tires. grab a set of nitto drag radials of bfg drag radials. they are both great tires.and some 410 gears. the car will feel like a totally different car. u could get some upper and lower controle arms after that. i baught mine from www.uprproducts.com for$200 and im happy withthem. depends what u want urcar to do. handle, or hook? starnge shocks/struts are goodfor the track as well as lakewood shocks/struts

Sticky tires
Gears
Control Arms
Springs (Type depends on what you need)
Subframe connectors
Exhaust (Longtube headers, mid-pipe and catback)
Mach/Bullitt/Cobra Brakes
Shocks/Struts (KYB AGX, Strang 10-way, Bilstein, Koni etc.)

That should be good for some basic stuff. If you want more suspension...

Tubular K-member and A arms
Coilovers
Panhard bar
Weight reduction
