Default I like these "help-build/design-my-car" posts...

Handling should be main priority, for now, which would include: Progress rear sway bar (It's a sway bar & lower tie bar... all in one! ), a set of light rims + tires to your liking, an appropriate drop + Koni Yellows/Tokico Illuminas/KYB AGX (shocks listed in order of preference) or go with TEIN full coilovers + EDFC ($$$!!! ), rear drum shoe upgrade or rear disc swap + Integra master cylinder (maybe add proportioning valve, too), AEM brake pads, Brembo blank rotor replacements, SRR LCA's (so pretty... ), and a Carbing frt. upper strut brace. You could also add a rear upper strut brace (and, frt. lower tie bar) as well.

Engine mods: cold air intake or do a copycat J's Racing intake for now... 50 shot of nitrous for a quick fix (if needed!)
Future engine mods (main focus! Start saving NOW! ): turbo B20 + Hondata & supporting cast

Exterior: Si-R/Type-R lip, [painted] CF hood (of course)

Interior: custom upholstered Del Sol seats

Speaking of spraying...is that really a good choice? I've been considering spraying in the meantime while I save for a swap...

True that..I'm gonna swap my head out with a y8 once I find a decent priced one and get it machined a lil....

Would that fare as a good idea to mill the head before putting it on my block?

After that I'm gonna try spraying something around the 40 something area..
