Default Parts you would want for your car

hope this isn't against the rules:

Recently i was in a bad accident and lost my job. this made me realize how quickly you can be let go. i was a loyal, good employee and i miss two weeks due to injuries and i am gone. this prompted me to start research on starting my own business. anyways, i wanted to know what parts would you want for your car. parts that are not currently in production, or parts that are overpriced. any cars, all suggestions welcome!

what exactly would you like? what parts specifically are too expensive?
qwiksilva: i think that i may have something for you... my friend has an rx7 and i would be willing to test on his. do you have an fd? how high do you think the interest would be?

There's plenty of stuff for the KL motor series (KLZE & KLDE). Apex'i makes a complete exhaust system to my knowledge for the KLZE/KLDE. I have it on my MX-3 KL.

Where do you think 2nd Gen Probe guys get their stuff?

BTW, the damper hood lift is sexy as shit. I'm interested in one, but I'm not interested in spending a lot of money just to have it custom. It would be for a FC.
