No need to roll ur guards man, unless ur running hectic offsets like +30 or even +25 or running wide rims, or combo of both, than id just keep that money for petrol or for a rainy day :)

that's a shame, sounded like some nice genuine mods to that car :(

not worth it getting it too low if not practical depending where you drive or get adjustable I guess (I still think adjustable coilovers are overkill purely for a street car, but that's just my opinion) - depends on your application (street/track) how much you want to spend and what kind of ride comfort you want - don't want to spend all that money and make the ride crap that your dash rattles everywhere

Oh gee - looks like it had the full Mugen kit - wow. Never ever seen one of them around Oz before and even 'Spoon' number plate and spoiler I'm guessing... wish people would do more of those mods in Oz but guess it's not like the US with parts just being so damn expensive here. Was a nice car there mate :)

Keep us posted re: new rims

Kinda like Chevy badges on commo imo

What wrong with putting a gen. Type r badge on an EK1. Sangs EK is an EK1 that has gone the full OEM EK9 replica. He earned his red badge. I'm getting over how judgemental Ozhomo has become. Ffs.

yeah i was serious, the red badge looks much better than the shit chrome one.

chevy badges on holdens are different, atleast this is still a honda badge.
