Aero conversion

Long story short, I have a very rusty 185 mile '01 9-5 Aero 5-speed Aero wagon that we daily drove for five years. The rust was too much to fix so I bought a rust-free '00 9-5 Gary Fisher 5-speed wagon with 185k miles (the GF wheels and bike are long gone). The plan is to swap over all of the Aero bits from the rusty car to make an Aero clone. The Gary Fisher wagon had its rear Nivomats replaced by conventional shocks/springs by the previous owner.
Here are all of the parts that I can think of:
- Swaybars (already done by previous owner)
- Aero springs
- Shocks (have Bilstein HDs)
- TD04 turbo and cooling lines
- ECU
- Klingon wheels
- AERO lettering
Is there anything else I'm forgetting? Am I right in assuming that the 2.3 engines are the same? Since it's a Gary Fisher it already has the Aero appearance package and steering wheel.
