So... my birthday is in October and I need to figure out what I want. I know I want something for the Tib but no clue what. I guess I'll start off with what I have...
AEM CAI
BBTB(on it's way I think)
AIRRAM(on it's way)
Should be in the spacer G/B
GT Headers
APEXi Exhaust
Zefiro Turby Turbo Kit(not on yet)
Haloz... inside and out
Good head unit
Sirius
Center bar
B&M SS
Boots from REDZ
Goodridge Brakelines
Dimpled/Slotted rotors
So... as you can see I already have a lot of stuff. BTW, no clear corners as I don't like them and the sound system is being saved until after my paint job in March... same with rims.
My considerations are...
New taillights b/c the ones on the car kinda going kaputz
Rear strut bar
Shift knob or pedals(but which one)
From there I am drawing a blank. Any suggestions? Nothing silly like neon lights or plug wires(don't laugh, it's been suggested). I don't do professional detailing as they are a waste of money since I can do the samething and have fun doing it.
EDIT: no turbo kits and as for price range... nothing outrageous but I'm willing to spend a little cash if I like something. I have a yellow RD2 with interior black/blue. in the future my car will not be yellow anymore and will be changed to black/blue themed.

B&M SS = short shifter... sry, should have made that more clear
Sirius is satelite radio.
Springs/Shocks - I like that idea I'll keep that idea in mind definately. Sadly enough it didn't come into my mind until you suggested it.
Racing Seats - I'm happy with the seats in the tib now so I'll save that for later.
Nitrous - I'm not detail oriented enough to have that in my car... I'll blow up.
What about pulleys? Did we ever get all that confusion settled on those?

I didnt see any pics of your car, but are the windows tinted? If not then you should do that, along with autostart or something like that.

TO be honest brotha, after seeing your car and meeting you in person, I'd do the following.
1. Rear SB like you have listed.
2. Get a new Short Shifter (I had the B&M and compared to the others, it sucks!!)
3. Taillights
4. OEM Stainless Pedals. (Full kit from Kspec is like 19 bucks, they look great!)
5. Pick up Supercow's Type R wing he's selling and put it on there.
6. Get your kit and other parts ON.
Your car just needs a bit of SHOW to go with the go that's on there.
BTW, your airram shipped last week, you SHOULD have it any day.

A set of K-Sport fully adjustable coilovers &/or Eibach Sway Bars front & back.
