    Alot of plans for this car in the last few weeks ive had it i have tidied up the interior, fixed most the panals, removed the spoiler, played around with the door handles since the locks were missing i am happy with the result, put 17" rims on it look better then the stockies and were cheap from a mate that upgraded : ) , painted the calipers, done basic oil/filter,plugs, leads etc, got rid of the old steering wheel, installed a cd/dvd player new speakers. I have ordered a complete turbo setup from the USA should be here soon, on the lookout for a nice bodykit before i spray the car and the exhaust will be getting done once the turbo is sorted and all this is just the beginning.

    Jesus what a retard. How very nice of you to fix it up properly. I'll bet the car would thank you if it could.

    why do p-plates assume everything is "need for speed" that looks horrible... good luck with it.

    I've never seen anyone mould in the door handles like that, should look much better painted. If you're looking for body kits, the three are the Xenon, Online Performance or Mugen-replica. Jetspeed make their own kits locally, but not the best looking imo. But personally I'd just fit some 94 accord lips all round and lower it. I hope you're buying a turbo kit that someone has personally put together, as no companies actually make turbo kits for these cars.

    Steering is over rated anyways lol, it will need some modification (would be no fun if it did'nt) still need to get a aftermarket computer some bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump. The engine bay is getting a huge clean up ready for all the mods next weekend just a flat black spray and clean the engine up getting rid of the cruise controll don't need it and may ditch the air-con give me some extra room for the intercooler.

    good luck mate although i do have my doubts on how long that motor will last, make sure you get it tuned properly or maybe fork out for a rebuild with lower comp pistons.

    Looking at these coilovers from the US not really sure they are not overly expensive which is a little worrying and ordered my oil cooler.

    Those coilover sleeve kits are a good way to lower your car but they don't stay captive. Maybe you could get some custom helper springs? I have had a set before.
