meh. a base car is as good a place to start as anywhere else. S has the third radiator, but the extra cooling may not be required - if you read the subi conversion thread he had too much cooling just w the stock rads. S has the 6-speed transmission but note that the 6-speed introduces other problems - it is considerably longer and introduces fitment and geometry issues in a swap. 6-speed can handle more power than a a 5-speed (i am currently putting 350 hp through a 5-speed, however). re the bigger brakes - any spec racer will tell you the base brakes are good.
