YOU CAN'T lose with suspension. I would def invest in some coilovers if i was you, along with maybe some rotors, and pads. But they're right, it all depends on the car and year. Focus where the car needs the most work first. good luck bro.

Re: 1st mod (nocaryet)
Please dont do it that way.. although it might seem cool to have a loud exhaust now, its not gonna really help ur performance and it will make you look like a ricer. You should get ur suspension done now, then rims and tires, and then ur engine. Don't buy a clutch for ur d-series tranny if you are gonna swap to an h22. Once you have ur engine, then get the bolt ons.

You shouldn't get an exhaust first because the h22 cat may and probably does line up different. Also, you will need different exhausts than the stock d16 because of the exhaust velocity differences. I'd probably go
Needs a little revision...

Re: 1st mod (all stock)
i'm with everyone on the suspension.... even though i did it backwards. i felt that when i had the money for my motor i would buy that first, just because that is a BIG buy if you ask me. then you get the suspension done the way you need it (since your going H22). then the bolt ons, brakes (since youll be haulin ****), then looks
