Default Please help out a (Prelude) newbie

Well, my '98 GS-R died (wrapped around a pole), so now I'm driving a '95 Prelude SE. As I haven't been following the Prelude scene, I have a few questions about modding:

I'm most likely going to go for a CAI, front upper tie and rear sway bars, clutch work, and possibly a lightened flywheel.

CAI -- most likely AEM, but maybe Iceman unless you guys have a better suggestion.

Bars -- Neuspeed? Are there any other good, and maybe not as expensive brands?

Flywheel -- I'm having problems finding the ACT flywheel -- is it possible to lighten the flywheel that's in there now or should I just have a brand new stock one lightened? Can any machine shop do it right?

Clutch work -- Since I'm not going for all out race but do enjoy "spirited" driving, I might go for an ACT clutch...how are the heavy duty pressure plate and street disc? Any complaints?

Finally, prices? What are good ranges? I'm guessing ~$150-200 for the intake, maybe $300 for both bars (?), no clue about the flywheel, and maybe like $300-400 for the clutch and disc if I go for ACT.

Thanks in advance!

Intake ... AEM CAI is the way to go..

Bars... Neuspeed rear sway bar is the best because it comes with new HD brackets but it is also 150$ more than a ST bar.. If you got the money get the neuspeed, but I got the ST bar and I'm totally satisfied.. Huge improvement 120$

Flywheel... ACT doesn't "make" their lightweight flywheel anymore.. All it was is a stock flywheel that has been lightened about 5lbs.. I have one in my car and love it, but you can go lighter with an Aluminum flywheel from Fidonza for about 350$

Clutch.. I have the ACT street disc with HD PP and have no complaints, from powershifting at the drags to hours on the racetracks, it has never fucked up!! About 300$

Hope this helps
