auto cross suspension

I got ya man, I'm just saying that the people who passed on the info were working off of hearsay and whatnot. I'm trying to clarify the real facts for you.

Koni's and H&R would be a great start for replacing the stock suspension.

This wouldn't happen for awhile, but another thing I was thinking of doing eventually, AFTER stripping the interior, would be wheels and tires. Most likely I was thinking 2nd gen 2 piston calipers and 16inch kosei wheels and some BFGoodrich wet/dry tires. its either the 2 piston 2nd gens, or i get 17s after getting stoptech brakes...maybe a good set of used 16inch wheels and 2nd gen brakes would be better, and get some new tires... That way, way down the road, when I can afford 1000 dollar brakes, i can also save up for a paint job and 17 inch wheels

my_precious, Have you heard of swapping on 3000gt vr4 brakes? They seem like the middle ground between those two options and might just be what you are looking for. There are a ton of writeups for them. Heres some links

I think the first thing I will do is get the suspension. Then, after that, I'll get some tires on my stock rims. After that i will save up for brakes, wheels, and tires, all as a package. that'll take some time of course, but i think its the best thing I can do. Buying just big brakes means I cant fit them in the stock wheels. Buying just wheels and tires = expensive and pointless to go bigger because then it would be more rotateing mass and i think it would be stupid to go bigger for the brakes i dont have. you may say, "you can get the wheels then brakes later" but that "later" would be a long time. What brakes i get, idk...dont really care at the moment either because it will be quite some time before I can afford them.
