First thing a baby does, he breaths... air intake and headers... start there.

I would fine out what your plans for the car are. If you are planning to do a motor swap or turbo the D16z6 its pointless and a waste of money to do anything more than a K&N drop in filter for $30. Protect your investment and start with security. Give yourself a more appealing car and a better ride... suspension should follow security.

That's the lamest thing I've ever heard. An intake and headers are a big waste of money. Read and research first.

BINGO!! Get the car to look good. A decent spring/shock combo would be my first thing. Then save for a swap....something that is worth modifying.

What is your price range ATM?

You could go with KYB AGX w/ H&R sport springs or even Tokico Illumina's. Some Eibach sports. Or on the higher side you can go with Tokico w/ GC coilovers or Koni yellows with GC coilovers. Hit up the suspension marketplace. You will find a lot of good suspsension deals in there

I ride on H&R Sports and Koni Yellows. I enjoy these a lot, although they are on the higher side of the price range. I have heard nothing but good things about them as well.
