Performance Mods 2007 Civic Type R

[Dutchie_Boy]

Guys,

I have just finished restoring a '65 Dodge and now feel the need to 'play' with my 2007 Civic Type R. First thing I want to do is modify the suspension, just a little hard on rural QLD roads and then free up the breathing (inlet and exhaust).

I would appreciate any advice on suspension, engine and body mods. Please let me know what you would do, where you would reccommend to get the parts and importantly Why would be gratefully accepted.

I will post piccies of the mods as I go. Not planning on starting the build until after Easter.

Thanks Whore (never thought I would ever say that).

Believe it or not, restoring a 40 year old Chrysler is pretty damn expensive as well, has taken me almost two years to get to this stage.

You can see my last attempt in my Avatar. I am having trouble loading/attaching pictures at the moment.

Cheers
