Time is gonna tell me. What direction i will go i dont know yet. My plans for now are to upgrade a brakes EBC rotors EBC red stuff pads and legend calipers, motor mounts front swaybar. Im gonna try myself on the track. SC adds weight to the front end and makes car handle even worse. Im dont say no dont say yes. If i got some extra cash then maybe.

Go with a full face helmet.
The visor is (should be) shatterproof. That will protect your eyes if you get into an accident. The chin protector will help too. Ive got a Shoei RF1000 for the bike. I got it two years ago. Theyre making the RF1100 now. You might be able to find the RF1000 for a good price online. For car use, you wont notice the differences between the two.
Most of the dealers in my area dont carry a large selection of helmets, you may have better luck.

Whatever is cheapest as far as color goes IMO.

biggest thing would be is that the timing marks might be a little different (along with the sensors being in a slightly different location) due to being an original manual, instead of a swapped auto
but i will say this is that if you are able to do a t/belt, you can more then likely compensate for the slightly different marks
BTW: biggest hassle of the T/belt is getting the crank bolt loose for the first time, since being tightened at the factory, they can be extremely tight

Some kinda update:
I have ordered few things for the car some are already here and some of them will be soon
List:
Oil Catch Can
SS brake lines
Stiffy ETD
XLR8 mounts
3k HID custom foglights.
Braille battery (have not decided yet on which one to get)
RL BBK depends how soon will get this done if my rims clear them.
CDD delete.
PSPEC short shifter.
If my rims wont clear BBK i will buy new set but this time lightweight and probably 17"
Im picking up today brand new tailights because some just destroyed a driver side one. Its all together but plastic is all cracked(will post a picture later)
As for engine mods i will try to do 4" short ram intake and maybe do p&p IM and runners.
Also i will try to loosen some weight on the car and myself
Dont know what else but this will be pretty much that it.
Maybe a rece seat for the future mod.
And im getting my headlights cleared this or next week.
Ordered black di noc for interior (new steering wheel)and will be doing a timing belt and valve adjustment myself soon too.
Wow thats a biggest update i've ever had.

Clutch dampening device.
I didnt see SS clutch line on your list. You should definitely consider doing that at the same time.

Ahhh that was the other member that he wanted to wrap headlights inserts with di noc. My bad. I was think about doing that too but im just not sure how it will look.
Im going to clear my headlights anyway im not sure if i paint the inserts flat black or i will wrap it.
Any tips on how to remove steering wheel ?

I got the Shifts

disconnect the battery and remove the screws behind the steering wheel for the controls.
remove the backing of the steering wheel (plastic)
remove bolts for the airbag and slowly remove the airbag-un-clip the airbag (2 spots)
then remove the center bolt for the wheel.
smack the back of the wheel with a mallet a few times and remove it. u dont need a puller and dont smack the wheel too hard. just a few taps around it will do.
