Miscellaneous bits for modification project

Hi all, I'm looking to do quite a bit of work on the FB over the next 6 months, having already replaced the viscous fan, stock wheels and cricket bat mirrors.

Here's my shopping list:

13B turbo (either FC series 4 or 5) ideally with all the bolt on bits and pieces
Manual gearbox (preferably FC series 4 but series 5 would be fine)
Porting templates (bridgeport intake and streetable exhaust)
Modified FD or RX8 seats to fit FB
Front spoiler
Rear spoiler (fibreglass type to replace my stock rubber one)
High spec front and rear shocks (tokico blue or illumina)
Megasquirt or another cheap aftermarket ECU

Theres bound to be plenty of other stuff I need but this should cover the main items. Let me know if you have any spares you're willing to sell or if you know any good suppliers. Hopefully with all the replacements I'll soon be able to make some excellent condition FB parts available :D

Regards
Biznatch

Quick update,

Suede RX8 seats with FC mounts (easily adapted for FB) are on the way. :D
Looks like FC T2 engines are few and far between in the UK. I'll keep looking but the backup plan is to half-bridgeport the existing 12A if all else fails. (In which case i'll either modify the Nikki or push the boat out and go for a RB Holley system).

Bro.

If you get a chance, you should pop down to Brighton/Hove and we can see what we can sort out.

I got a shed full of all sorts ;) ;)

Cheers mate, hopefully I'll get the car in reliable condition over the next few months and make the trip down your way. Would be good to compare notes. h:
