GT2 For Parts - What Should I Get?

Just been told about an '01 GT2 which is being broken for parts
The car is completely stock

rear leather panels - so that when you delete your rear seat belts there is not a open space for where the old seat belts used to slide through!

these are very expensive from the dealer to replace upwards of 4k i am told!

my old car happened to have them installed

I wouldn't bother with the engine...basically same as an x-50 engine. Tranny, on the other hand, is something I'd be interested in, with the upgraded interneals, etc.... Wheels are nice, especially if they are the multi-spoke design (very rare). Front bumper and front wheels uprights would be nice too. Actually, the entire suspension system would be cool!

Is the rear suspension different, or just the front?

Also - As I'm planning on the GT2 clutch conversion, is it an option to get the master cylinder and assist spring, or are they a ***** to remove?

roof panel and head liner to delete the sunroof. rear suspension is the same but shocks are different. motor is same as turbo, but turbos are k24s (same as X50) tranny is good, get the hoses for the trans cooler too.

Lower suspension control arms + suspension, front uprights.
Turbos and intercoolers.

Front bumper + all ducts (ducts are mega expensive).
Rear wing.

Tranny.
Engine if you can afford it and price is decent, always a market for them.

GT2 master and cylinder not worth it, they are "cheap" to buy.
