A good starting point??? Help

[mannyfresco]

Hello zilvia members,
I recently purchased my first 240. 1995 240sx SE KA24DE powered AUTO. This is my first time every attempting at building a car. My goal is to make this car mainly for track use and occasional meets. (Daily: '13 Subaru STI). Ive been having a really hard time on where to start on the build. I figured I would just do a quick 5 speed swap and run the car as a KA until my learning curve for the S-chassis improves. Of course with a SR swap later down the line.

I guess where Ive been stuck is what to upgrade after the swap?
Should I address parts as needed?
Should I start with full suspension?
Or just focus on making sure the engine is running tip top condition?

Im more concerned with making sure I dont start a section of the car where it depletes my funds and slows down my builds progress.

Not sure if this makes sense, but any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
