But, yes you're right in that it'd be one of the last things to change when modding. Having said that, I wouldn't go spending $$ on body bits either....but thats just me :)

on their site it says for jdm and ukdm ep3 to order the dc5 ssr headers.

from what your saying not much gains in headers as it will prolly be the last thing to mod before cams and all etc.

also been thinking about 2nd gear syncro/ selector fork. Let me know how you go?

as for the DC5 matching, be sure to check the year as im pretty sure the facelifted model may have diff ratios.

Facelifted usually means that, new look not new parts...... 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear in all K20 6 speeds are the same and the rest only differ in final drive, lsd and 4,5,6 gear combos.

Dont think they come with it. Easiest way 2 tell is when u turn the engine off,is there a green key blinking light on ur cluster? And red blinking light continuously on ur dash?

My mechanic goes to be that i cant raise it up since im missing one ring which apparently locks it, and although i have raised it up right now it will eventually fall back down. any comment on this? if so anyone know where i can get spare ring for the tein superflex

Try fulcrum suspension for spare ring. They are the tein aus distributor. They can rebuild tein so they must have spare parts.

01-03 (ie pre fl) doesn't have the green light on the dash so they don't have o immobilisor.

The red light is most likely fitted during compliance.
