welcome and congrats on the pickup, what are your goals for the car? Performance, looks, an equal balance of both?

well since you have an '06 6MT,

Performance;
- MD 5/16 spacer
- MD MREV2
- 3.9 or 4.0 final drive gears
- HFCs(Berk, Fast Intentions, CNT, Kinetix) or test-pipes(MD ART-pipes)
- exhaust all depends on your tastes(good duals: MD, ARK)
- tune

Suspension;
- adjustable sway-bars(MD, Hotchkis, Stillen)
- coilovers(BC, Stance)

Exterior;
- 19" wheels depending on your tastes(good companies expensive; Volk, Work, SSR, HRE, DPE / good companies affordable; Forgestar, Enkei)
- Popular body-kit combos; Inven or Karuma Z front w/Impul side-skirts & Chargespeed rear
- Stafe trunk w/molded rear lip
