need help! i know nothing about mechanics!

i bought my first car a few months ago, an automatic RMS13. My brother is really pissin me off cause he keeps on calling my car a sudo drift car . This really angers me cause I bought my car with my own cash and he just got his car as a hand me down, now all I want to do is just to fix up my car, I plan on making it making it stickshift when i get all the parts. anyone here with any tips on where I can do this swap, I already researched around the internet, NICO, etc. I live in norcal (bay area) I will travel as far as southern cali to do this swap, please help!


here is the parts I found so far:

transmission

transmission crossmember

master and slave cylinder

200SX differential

Tien DRIFT DAMPERS

exedy clutch

stock flywheel

Tien E.D.F.C

stock shift boot

S12 shift ****

tokico blues (have both rear and front)

S13 front

CA18ET turbo(not sure it would fit)

wangan carbon fiber wing

JDM kouki tailights (got a bargain off mine )

some cheap racing seats I bought in Kragen

carpeting for the back seats( gonna remove those horrible rear seats! Who the hell designed the interior of the car?)

eibach lowering springs

... and thats about all the parts I have, I spent a whole S T load of cash on my car,and I didnt even install anyoff them yet! but I first have to do the 5 speed first!

HELP! I WANT TO BE BETTER THAN MY BROTHER AND HIS AE86!

i would leave out the lights they dont make u fast, just my opioin, once the mechanics are solid then go for the misc stuff

and combine all of the suspension componets u have and just try and find a basic tein coilover setup.

not to be an ***, but he's right, use some sense and you won't get in over your head with alot of parts and alot less money and not being able to put any of the **** together, it'd suck to end up broke with a broke *** car to go along with it............just my .02
