i dont know the car, but it looks pretty sexy.

i notice you mention a nitrous pressure gauge. does it have a nitrous system installed?

just make sure you check the frame closely for rot. stab them with a screw driver or something all long the bottom and sides (inner side near the exhaust especially). also check the floor under the drivers feet.

other than that most other things are pretty easy to fix. worse case to pass safety you might need balljoints, some various bulbs, etc.

bushings might be shot, but also an easy fix. (talk to Bing)
