Default want to take a stab at painting my crx, how much will everything cost?

In keeping with the theme of doing everything myself for my car I would like to paint my car as well. I have just starting doing some research I dont mind paying a good amount for all the right parts and materials and have them time/money to do it over and over again if it doesn't turn out right. So far, I figure I need...
hvlp gun (any suggestions?)
air compressor (what hp?, gallon tank?)
primer (?)
sealer (?)
base coat(?)
clear(?)

is it best to go with a 2 part everything?

also, for body work what grit sandpaper and stuff do I need?
