on your list here our reccomendation ( i say our because many agree)
Get an AEM, its better
Erebuni is going out of business soon so hurry if you want that, otherwise VIS is good
not sure on the wing, but the type R wing is very nice and was stock in Canada
Carbon taillights look really cheap, the black ones look nice
many prefer the ARK short throw shifter
good choice for clutch
You will spend more getting the body kit to fit than its worth. We dont have any real good fitting ones available to us besides veilside but its expensive and huge. the cuda kits fit pretty well.
Shark Racing is known to have bad customer service. Ive purchased a couple things and been ok but some have been screwed out of parts and money. The strut bars, ARK is running a gb soon i believe and they look great. Coilovers, some have a kit thats on ebay, forgot the name but they love it. its around 600 or so. anything else, check out kdmstuff.com their shipping is supposed to be very fast coming from korea and they have a lot of hard to find products.
hope this help! fing02.gif

Welcome to the site, I totally disagree with your plans for the tib... lol
SHARK RACING SUCKS ARSE!
Go here, www.seoulfulracing.com
The Injen intake is a warm air intake, the AEM is a cold air. Get AEM.
Buy the Maintec headers from SFR. 4-1 is not so good... You want 4-2-1.
Short shifter wise, buy ARK. They are the best, REDZMAN did a comparison with them and said ARK. I bought one, best move ever. Here's the link
http://www.arkspeedracing.com/97_00_HY_Tib...ss0700-9700.htm
Don't buy the carbon look tails.. So played out and not even real carbon fiber... Get black ones, right when you buy them, put a bead of silicone all around the light so it doesn't fog up like mine.
Don't go with the vader kits either, also played out knock offs with terrible fitment. You might like the look of the cuda kits for your car, but check out Majiktib's RD2. He has a real veilside kit that looks amazing.
Unless you really want them, don't go coilovers. Get the KYB GR2 struts with Eibach springs. It drops the tib perfectly and looks great. Plus it's still a good ride.
Invest $100 into getting a 1.8l intake cam. They come up pretty often in the for sale section. There might be one right now even. If not, SFR sells them, and your local bone yard probably has a few. Check out the DIY section and find a good 1.8l ECU as well.
Buy some clear corners for that bad boy
Strut bars are fine through shark racing, but check out ebay too
Exhaust systems......Good luck..... They don't even make any of them anymore... Shark racing may still have one. Check out custom as well though.
Those are just my suggestions... But I imagine most members would agree with me. Good luck and have fun man!!
