Bloody hello!

Hi people, how are we all? My name is Adam, I'm from SA, I bought a EL fairmont late last year and I have been fixing and upgrading slowly as time/cash/missus allows.
I have installed a redbak 2.5" catback zorst so far and my modification plan is to:
Convert to manual.
Install a 3.45 or 3.73 LSD.
New shocks and kings L or SL springs.
19" wheels. Not too sure what yet.
DEFINITELY a brake upgrade!
Tickford bodykit.
Twinlight xr6 style lights.
Nolathane bushes right through the car.
Au xr6 front seats as the drivers seat base has cracked.
Stereo install.
Probably a respray in the future, the paint has chips and the clearcoat has started to go on the rear quarter.

Buy an au engine and install the following:
Cms stage 3 head+cam package.
Pacy 4480's.
Oil filter relocation kit.
3" piping airbox to throttlebody.
Possibly a ems stinger ecu. Probably just a j3 chip.

Overall I just want a nice to look at, nice sounding and nice to drive cruiser that has a decent set of nuts to make commy drivers cry inside haha.
