Hi Miatatude, Got your post on another thread but thought I'd reply here to keep it all together...
That's a big question you ask..
I would start off with weight reduction. This has the largest impact on performance. Get decent pads for the front std or std slotted rotors (I have used Porterfield R4's to good effect), stiffer springs and uprated dampers with adjustable front top mounts (go for coilovers if you can afford it) and set the front to -3 deg camber 0 deg toe. Make the rear as stiff as possible in order to allow the car rotate which increases front traction.. That should get you started.. If you have any specific questions don't hesitate to ask...
