I took the car apart last August and still have it apart, I went from a simple build to something much larger than that. 
One thing led to another, and I figured I might as well replace it all since it'll be easier now.
For the most part, I'll let the pics do the talking.
ebay 16g for practically nothing(if it blows, then I'll get a mhi one or go 68hta)
ebay 2.5" o2 sensor housing
Freshened up control arms(painted, poly bushings, new ball joints), and one of the motor mounts(painted, poly bushing)
Sanded and polished the inner lip of my wheels
The whole energy suspension kit
Picked up a 7 bolt head from the junkyard to be freshened up
Test fitted some 22's I mounted for my buddy's truck
Front slotted bigger brembo rotors for awd(awd calipers not shown), lower timing cover, walbro 255hp, evo8 maf, ebay bov with ngr diaphragm, gvr4 shift knob, fuel pump rewire, tie rod ends, and stoptech brake pads
Redid the undercoating for the front wheel wells
More parts have been ordered, pretty close to buying less things and finally starting to put everything else together.
As for what I'm going with for tuning and everything, I just ordered an evo 8 ecu and will be wiring that in.
The next blog will show more work that's been done and less parts.
