dude, seriously search, what you do first or in the mean time really is 100% prefrence. some people might say do body work, some say do a system, some might say do your suspension... see where im getting at? your on the right track as far as saving for the swap, just keep saving and be patiend, dont do anything prematurely just cause you got the itch, thats my advice, good luck.

yeah no sense in buying performance things right now.. cause most of it won't transfer to your new engine.... Just keep saving and do it right the first time

Ill give you a little help honestly if I were you I would drop the car on some coilvers for now like you cna get some expensive ones from like skunk2 or get some cheap ones by drop zone.after that if your really **** you can try getting a real CF hood. But like up top said its all up too you and the money and work your willing to do. I'm just telling you from my own personal experince from getting into the scene a while back have fun you started off with a great car OHH YEAH FIRST THING I BOUGHT WAS AN ALARM might wanna think about that

true that. . OP, take that advice and if your an impatient person just looking for something to do in the mean time, i would say to do your suspension cuz atleast when you do put your motor in you'll already have the handling behind the power, know what i mean?. . .

dude...you should really look into a adding a couple of layers of security...you gonna regret not doing it if your car gets stolen (*knocks on wood*)...alarm, kill switch, etc...then worry about the rest later..
