Not really a modification, but they are that good that they are probably better than a modification!

Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Specs
$1500
Tyre store
Absolutely amazing levels of grip, highly recommended although you will go through petrol faster.

why not add my first one in here.

Mod: Buddy club pro spec exhaust (dual)

Price: i paid 750 for it, dunno how much brand new.

Where from: firesport XD

Impressions/comments: very drony at low rpm, would not recomend it for daily driving, havent tested silencers yet, above 6rpm it screams, left work the other day and was told it could be easily recognized going down the nepean highway. also has nice poping noises, dunno if thats common for aftermaket exhausts on s2's

Rating: 3.5, pretty bad drone.

why so expensive? which store in AUS??

Mod: Invidia Q300 V4 Dual Titanium Tip Exhaust

Price: $920USD delivered and insured

Where from: LSD Motorsport USA

Impressions/comments: Not too loud on idle, has a nice deep tone when cruising and when you hit the vtec yooo sounds amazing! In cabin might be a bit too loud for some but I think its ok and with music its not too bad. Made car more responsive and I felt the power increase. Looks awesome too with the titanium burnt tips

Password JDM slotted and dimpled front brake rotors and matching pads. $300 delivered to my door. Huge improvement in braking, likely in part attributed to some air bubbles in brake lines which I found when bleeding brakes after install, my car has a full Honda service history - but no doubt there are slacker mechanics doing things too quickly.

225/45/17 front, 255/40/17 rear...much cheaper int he states, but a slashed rear tyre forced my hand to buy in Australia, not many stockists of sticky rubber which had the tyres in stock that actual day.
