yeah i would get coilovers, a rebuilt clutch type diff, and a hydraulic ebrake would be cool, but would take alot of work. i would personally put two 4 piston calipers on the rear. one that worked with the front breaks and one with plumbing to the hydraulic e brake.

get a decent set of coilovers, shim your diff, and get a steering angle kit. that should be a good start, and shouldn't cost too much. also if you can get the rear dtts elim. kit.
