To begin with, get some slicks/ET streets/drag radials. If you are willing to get another set of wheels, get some slicks, and you can just slap them on when you go to the track. If you daily drive the car, and want performance all the time try Nitto 555 r BFG T/A drag radials. If you only drive it on the weekends, but don't want to go with all out slicks, get some Mickey Thompsons.

On suspension, you NEED to replace the lower control arms. You should get some new springs too, I can't suggest anything there, but someone will know. When you go to the track, remove your front sway bar for better weight transfer.

Further, get an aluminum driveshaft and underdrive pulleys. If you like the auto, get a higher stall converter and shift kit, that will get you about at the level of a manual, dropping about .5 sec in the 1/4. Otherwise, drop that dirty auto and get a T5. If you need more explanation on any of this just ask!
