if you wanna have a nice daily driver and enjoy the track non-competetively, i would do:
new wheels and tires for grip
Cold air intake
header
exhaust
suspension parts
oil cooler

then again it all depends on whether you want better handling or more power

best thing to do before you start modding it up is gettin a JDM ITR sway bar. that will make a big handling diff. plus it's like 100 somethin only.

I would go with suspension or exhaust untill you decide if you are gonna go all motor or boost.

Lower and stiffer - then go have some fun and roast your stock tires and then get some 225/50s (little wider) because the stock tires are

Suspension is the weak link of the car. I would start with that. I just did my suspension (Mugen SS and Type R rear sway)and it is 50 times more fun to drive even with a bone stock motor. Besides what good would power adders do you if you cant transfer the power to the ground?

EDFC only if you got a little extra money to spend as I doubt you'll really need to spend the 350 and be able to sit there and change softness that often.. but if you do, then more power to you! I've heard the mugen is pretty nice too, but I don't know from my knowledge it's a little soft for me
