I agree with dc2r-0636. Sold mine recently and went back to stock airbox. You get over the sound when you have an exhaust and the response wasn't that great compare to stock now.
If you plan on doing those changes I suggest you get a 98+ model, it'll save you some hassles like sourcing the bumper, painting, etc. I would probably only get a 96 model if its like dirt cheap.

I got them off a member on here over a year ago for dirt cheap. They were originally silver and weren't in the best condition so i had them refurbished in black instead :).
I got an exedy sports organic for more than a year now, excellent clutch. Slightly heavier than stock but the grip is more firm. Cost about $400 for the clutch and I had mine done for ~$500 labour....
Yeah looks like your sideskirts and pods are replicas. Heres how to you can tell, see the difference behind the fin part of the sideskirts that attaches to the body? The backing part doesnt go all...
Ive got spoon street on my dc2r, its quiet like stock but with a little rumble and gets louder when hitting vtec but not too loud. I say its just like a stock exhaust but abit better flow. I like it...
Those kits are a hit or miss, bought those rear pods for my dc2 and the thing was just garbage. Wont be 100% fitment and probably need some modifications to make it fit.
