ITB's and suspension deffinaty. ITB's beign the priority. You have wanted them for a long time. Yours is a high spec brakes wise and a reasonably high spec suspension wise.
Plus the noise of the ITB's will be awsome.
It will make your car a true track wepon.
If you need a hand polishing......

950kg standard. So lost nearly 200kg! 
I could list for AGES mate. But some of the main things would be:
Spare wheel and hanger
No interior
Lightweight bucket seats
Lightweight exhaust / manifold / no cat
Lightweight battery
No ABS
No PAS
Polycarbonate windows

Yet another update for you guys!
I've decided the next thing I'm going to do, is have the bodies done! WooHoo. 
I'm going to have the work done by MechMotorsport - Matty-VTR's old man. I've been down there before, and I'm very impressed with his knowledge and skills for this type of work.
So what bodies? I've decided I want to go for the KMS DTH bodies. It was a close call between them and the Jenveys to be fair. Now, I've got a small situation. If I take the car to MechMotorsport without the bodies fitted, they're going to have to charge me a fair amount of labour to fit them. The best thing I could do, would be to have all the kit fitted myself, then get the car towed to them. I don't have the knowledge to do this. Does anyone know how to fit these bodies, including the removal of the OE bits, and would be willing to help me do this? I'll sort you out with a drink, and plent of cups of tea and some biccies...
