    I recommend and exhaust complete if you have not done that. Junk the OE manifold if you can. Put in a CAI kit too.
    Then I would suggest a suspension upgrade.

    Your choice, but I would keep it if its in good shape. As for the auto, it wouldnt be that hard to convert it to a manual.

    What are you wanting from it ? More HP or other ?

    Thumbs up

    Hi mate an eyebrow for the headlights, upswept dtm exhaust. K and N Pod filter that makes em sound nice or if you want to keep the airbox take off the little elbow on the base behind the headlight and drill a series if 22mm holes round the airbox for that nice induction noise! I had a pollen filter in mine mate and it sounded good with the holes. Mate there is a list of thing you can do to that. And like the guys say if it is in good nick keep it and put an 020 box in her mate.

    Transmission cooler i would think

    Id start with suspension, then rims.... Autos are good for cruising!
    But if you want more performance go Manual....looks like a neat example!
    Id keep it!

    but yea, some Coil overs and some fat rims to begin with.....
    both not cheap, but gives you something to aim for. lol
    some people say money grows if you save it....im not so shure tho
    Cheers, Benny
