Default Build thread soon?

Well, I was thinking of doing a build thread here soon. I was gonna list what I would hope to do and get some feedback from everyoe here.

This will probably happen when it gets a little closer to summer when it gets nice out.
It might be a slow thread, or as slow as any 17 year olds thread with a minimum wage job.
I have alot of parts on hand that I already want to put on.

I was thinking about

1.Power door conversion (parts on hand) I need the wiring harness so if anyone is selling one let me know.

2.Full si Brake upgrad "big fronts, rear discs" "parts on hand"
Im gonna change all the parts on them though like new rotors calipers etc.
Any ideas for pads and peices?
I was gonna thinking about using the green stuff pads but I heard they were pretty loud and dusty.

3.99 Si climate control. "parts on hand"
This is still up in the air because of the little benifit-work ratio.
Might sell this is the price is good.

4.Paint and body
This wont be done by me because I don't hae the tools or the expertise to complete something like that.
So if anyone knows of anyone who does really good work in ohio or anywhere in ohio please let me know.

5. "mini me swap" y8 head with all the peices to go with it.
Will my aem intake already on my car work with the new cylinder head?
And probably if my funds grow I will turbo it in the future.

So far thats thats what I have come up with, it already has alot of stuff done to it.
Lowered, rims, mom wheel, si seats, alarm, quick release, system.
etc
Tomorrow Im gonna post pics of the car and the damaged side.
So let me know what you think and if you have any ideas let me know [:

two quotes that are guidelines for nice builds

"built not bought"
and
"do you it want it done quick or do you want it done right?"
