Gutted interior, welded diff, no exhaust, stock s13 seat, cut springs, and do a manual to automatic swap.

You should be GOLD after all that.

i was thinkin da same shit why does this dude chris say automatic is better. we all know that standard is way better because u can control
your rpm much better and u have a clutch so u can clutch kick on turns, instead of power sliding through them.

I was being super sarcastic sorry.

What you really should be looking at is:

Manual transmission for sure.

2-Way diff (if you can afford it) or a VSLD, or even a welded diff. Beware that a welded WILL eat up your tires even if your not drifting.

Upgraded Seat - I hear too many horror stories about being getting thrown around in their ride mid drift.

Coilovers - If your looking to get something cheap and efficient i'd go with either Megan Streets or PBM coilovers

Brakes - A lot of people do Z32 caliper conversions. Go for it, if you have the funds. If not i'd just get some brembo blanks and HAWK pads.
