How about some gang specific armor? A gang would be able to buy an armor manufacturing plant, then spend time and money into armor R&D - I.e research better resistance with an accuracy booster on it - once the R&D process was done, the individual gang members could visit the gangs armory, and pay to have a piece or armor from the gang blueprint made - maybe it would $300,000 + 17 days to create the armor? Have it vary depending on they type of R&D done on the armor.
This could possibly even be done for weapons too, and possible have it so that individuals could also purchase a manufacturing plant. The R&D process may have a time benefit from how many engineers a gang has, and the manufacturing process might benefit from how many Manufacturers the gang has - and have benefits that trigger by level. I.e you've got to have a level 5 engineer on hand to research a level 1 accuracy booster on the armor.
This could have some interesting impact on gang wars, and the gangs may be able to research bonuses for their armor that would apply in gang wars. The system could also be limited to how many blue prints a gang can have active in their armory - and could create an economy to sell blue prints to other gangs.
