Your initial list sounds reasonable but jeeze, man - do you not think that this topic has not been covered here about a billion times.

Search.

VAFC and JDM FD or ATS FD.

Or, save your money for some nice coil-over suspension.

Save up a little more and run a Hondata Stage 2. You'd have to get the harness/obd 1 ecu and have it tuned. Tuning a somewhat stock motor (or your bolt ons) can surprise you sometimes.

If not, you can afford to get a Jdm 4.7 fd plus the 300 labor install and theres your 800.

I'd say go for a nice exhaust, and V-AFC and tunning

Tunning is key, it can make the world of difference, also look at getting some motor mount inserts, and other suspension bushings, to stiffin up the ride and give you some more handling and launching ability

Driving schools. Much more fun per dollar and you will actually be able to say you know how to drive your R.

What are you goals for your car? I would go with the final drive, but thats me, some would go with driving school, and other would by weed. You mentioned cams? Do you need more power? Nice tires are a good buy. new break pads. ect.
