Looking for general advice

Just got myself a 98 i30 3.0 auto everything stock.
I'd like to get my car to higher performance but to be honest I don't know much about cars just getting into them. I started to do things like I changed the starter and brakes on my own but most things I go to a shop.
So far I have 17" Infiniti 6 spoke rims with good year eagle gt tires from the factory 15" honeycomb rims. I put in light tints, a viper remote start alarm system. Magnaflow cat with 3 inch muffler don't know what it's called I'll try to put up a pic If I figure out how. I put in a Sri but wanted a cai but I couldn't find space without cutting into fender. Hid fog lights 8000k. I put in a factory spoiler and pioneer sound system
As you see it's mostly looks because honestly that's all I know how to do myself looking for tips on what to do and I'll figure out how to do it later on.
Thanks

Looks good from the mods so far but a tune on the dynos should get you up a few more wheel hp as well as nwp intake spacers

Thanks never would have thought about the spacers. I'll look into it. About the dyno I have been thinking about it but I've heard it's stressful on the car, I mean I drive the car and I've hit speeds past 100 but I have an issue with my tranny I believe because third gear doesn't shift to fourth that easy it stalls a little. Please let me know if u think it would be ok for a dyno tune thanks.

Hey just talked to some people I know they said it will do perfectly fine on dyno. It does put little stress on the car but the fan keeps the motor cool and as long as you don't do 50 runs on it lol! But if you ever get the spacers and go to the dyno share the records. maybe change the tranny fluid? Every 13000 miles you should but I do every 30000
