i did performance before looks, i did all the cheap/easy stuff first like putting washers before the muffler, neon coil pack, home made grounding kit stuf like that, then i got cheap stuff of ebay like a air intake and underdrive crank pulleys witch is the bigest bang for the buck imo

1st was replacing the OE CD deck with my HU. amp and speakers from my old car since the OE deck was skipping.
Then the JDM headlights and tails.
Then an EL header to replace the stock cracked manifolds.

this was also my first...
First upgrade to the 98 L was WRX wheels.
Then when I got the 95 L the first thing I transferred over were the GC8 seats that I had in the 98.

I guess technically the first thing I did was pull the engine to replace the head gaskets and fix all the oil leaks. But that is more maintenance/repair than upgrade.
