Hey all,

I'm Paul. Don't know that much about cars at all but love a good drive. Had my Teggy for a couple months now.

Nothing major has been done to it at all yet. Just been enjoying the ride;

Swapped out shifter bushings for Strut Kings Aluminum Shifter Bushings
Gruppe M Intake
2 x 10" Rockford Sub/Amp/Cap
Mugen Pedals

Obviously alot of cash so may take a little while but should be fun regardless =P.
Upcoming upgrades:
Toda Race Headers + ESMM
TEIN SS-P Coilovers
Fujitsubo Power Getter
K-Pro
Brembo Big Brake Kit

Hey Paul,

Welcome to Ozhonda.. congrats on buying a great car :)

with your future mod list:
- I would ignore the big brake kit for a long long time.
- Dont get the energy suspension motor mounts, buy hasport or innovative engine mounts
- If you wanna save money and get a great coilover buy BC (not buddy club), alot of the guys tracking their cars are using them.. great handling and you can lower
- Fujitsubo Power Getter is a very good exhaust paired with a decent race header, toda is best quality, but still very very pricey.. Blackworks do a good alternative for bang for buck header
- and KPro is an obvious one :)

also note it would be worth while getting
- a heavy duty clutch and lightened flywheel combination (exedy is your best bet)
- rear sway bar (whiteline is great value)

hope that gives you something to read.. haha
