I have tein flex wit pillow mounts on my EH3, it rides great, on the softest setting it feels stock and rollin pretty low.
wit some gsr lca's and itr sway u'll be floatin threw turns
As for the rear brakes if u have access to disk swap, Do It! bacardi and cola, Do It!
G/L wit tha build!

thanks for all the feedback guys! yes i was thinking of getting the tokico illumina's first! does anybody know how it rides with the tokico/tein setup? as for the lower control arms i was thinking function and form with the itr sway. sorry to ask a noob question but how is a subframe beneficial? i read that it goes in hand with the sway but couldn't really understand the description. and gorgon as for the alarm that is a must! especially living right here by the border!!

also as for the rear brake conversion if I get good deal off a local junkyard for gsr rear brakes if not then it will wait. I won't think its necessary because I wont be taking it to the track only on the one mountain road we have here in el paso for kicks. This is gonna by my dd!!!

I would say those rims look Mugen-esque, and if Im right, then your rims alone are worth more than $800

nothin beats Honda bushings, I bought the beaks sub reinforcement kit, cheap, simple, and strong!
where the sway mounts there there are two pieces that sandwich the frame and transfer load to a single force instead of two/per side. its purpose is to keep the frame from ripping out at the mounting points,
hope that helps

dont do the tokico illuminas i have them and i dont like them. get the buddy club N+ coilovers. they are pricy (like 800) but they are amazing and so worth it.
