Hi guys.

I've been following the forum for a little while as I've always been a bit of a fan of hondas and I've recently purchaced my first honda after owning a few other quick cars. (worked SR20VE pulsar with N1 cams and a mafless tuned, 3.9diff gears VZ Calais) and now this.

I think the guy i bought it off is on this forum so some people might know it already.

When i bought it, it had the following.
JDM B18C motor
4.7 gearbox
Ingen intake
Buddyclub coilover
red Recaros
5zigen white wheels
Beaks rear subframe brace
and a couple of other little things.

I've since played/tidied up a few things, new head deck and sub and amp.
Put my Rota Track R wheels on it.
Fixed the suspension as when i got it it was slammed but the hieght had been adjusted via the spring seat and the springs were uncaged so I've tighted them up and lowered it via the body ( i want to go a bit lower in the front but going up gutters it gets really close to the guards now on full lock). also rear sway bar was upside down or something causing it to hit the LCA so I've taken that off and will eventually get a purple ASR brace.
It had a dent on the lip of the bonnet, which wasnt very noticable unless u were actually checking the car out, but none the less i knew it was there and because of its position its not the easiest fix so iv cheated and fitted a bonnet bra, im undecided if i like it yet, looks great on some other cars I've seen with it, but I'll see how i go. Lastly i need new/ or repainted window baily rubbers. but thats no biggy. I've also retinted the windows in 5% tint.

I'd love to put some Toda spec B or C's in it but i still miss my Calais so im going to hold off till after i get back from my contiki and see how i feel about spending more money on it, then I'll decide if I'll sell or make faster.

I'll put some better pics up when its clean for more then a day
