Pretty sure there is a whole thread of basic mods to do. But as a reply to your questions;

- Turbo timer - Don't bother imo

- Boost controller - Greddy Profect B Spec II (I have one, it's awesome)

- Exhaust - depends what you're after... Cannon, twin tips, mufflers, decat or cat, etc etc... too many options

- Front sway bar - Whiteline, Pretty sure everyone recommends them for quality and how much of an upgrade they do

- Suspension - What suspension are you after? Springs? Coilovers? Adjustable arms? etc etc...

- I would also recommend an aftermarket in-tank fuel pump if you're going to up the boost, I've got a walbro 255 and it's good

- Also if you're going to up the boost, depending by how much, you'll need to get an aftermarket ECU. Haltech (expensive option), Apexi power FC (about a grand (I think)), NIStune (about $360 + you will need an R32 ECU (because R33 ones aren't tune-able))

Not sure about the other stuff though... I'm sure someone else can shed some light on it...

* turbo timer- probably not needed but it wont hurt either, I use a greddy unit

* boost controller- makes a big difference I use a Apexi AVCR,

* remote start / alarm system / key less entry- been told remote start makes it easy to steal

* front mount inter cooler- definitely, can be a toss up as far as quality, I use a $400 cooling pro

* exhaust- atleast 3inch with atleast one good oval muffler

* front sway bar

* suspension- be careful of spring rates, 8 in front and 5 in rear was recommended to me, don't want more than that

*after

also if you can think of any other things i can do that isn't to expensive to boost performance

thanks again sorry i am just new to this and would love to learn - make a plan of what you want to achieve first so you don't have to do things twice..

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
