Don't waste your money on Neuspeed Race springs. The ride sucks. Save some and get GC's or Full Coil-overs. I'd look into the Tanabe Racing Medallion exhaust if I were you. If you want a high quality header buy DC. However, it probably won't produce much power. You might think about getting some AEM Power Pulley's for $150. They'll actually be noticeable.

Just my 2 cents.

Rims/Tires and the drop first. This will make your car standout in a heartbeat and have people turning heads. You probably don't want the Neuspeed Race springs. They are just too low and you'll blow your struts in two seconds. If you really wanna slam it, do it occassionally with coilovers. Otherwise get springs with about 1.5" drop. I got the Neuspeed Sports and they make my car look pretty aggressive (Don't have pics with them yet though) without sacrificing too much ride quality and having to avoid certain bumps and whatnot.

But it's your car. We can only make suggestions based on our experiences...

EDIT: Don't forget to get a camber kit. A small investment now will pay dividends later when it comes time to replace tires. I gonna get some soon too...
