swaps (trans +/or eng) ...
i am considering an auto to manual swap (and i have done search for prev. posts) but still want some input. My current engine and transmission are both in great condition, no problems at all w/ 89K miles. So should i stay w/ 12v and swap trans only, or should i do engine swap too?

For me, I most always do mods when something needs to be replaced...
...if your engine and tranny are doing fine, I'd say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".
Now, when the time comes when your auto tranny starts acting up...the manual swap would be awesome!
Or if you've got the experience or resources, the 20vt engine swap too.
In the meantime, if you want to add some performance, I would suggest you buying my DIY "Bored" MAF and my UrS4 Velocity Stack for the nominal price of only $200US including shipping.
On another note, where'd you get your seats from?

since i have done no mods yet i must prioritize, going to start w/ brakes, only because i need new ones, then some engine mods, which azeem just offered up, then maybe the swap, and i don't mind spending either $$ or time on my car
