That's a solid list of bolt-ons. With a proper tune and regular maintenance that car should be rock solid and really fun. Mileage is quite low. Go buy it. I think converted to USD$ that might be really cheap for the miles depending on exchange rate of the day. Yeah, go look at least. Probably gonna wanna get it.
list looks good. Prolly about 400 whp . Have it tuned to bring the torque on a bit slower to save the 6 spd which doesnt like torque.
Make sure the ACD system works and source spares for it.
