The word Hatred comes to mind for some reason. How much did you pay for it?

replacement bumper.

if you throw on the y8 head your compression will be too high to boost. the c/r will be around 10:1 so make sure you grab some turbo pistons if our gunna boost on it.

id just sell the y8 head, put on the s2 manifold and boost the a6.

i like teh fog lights...relocating the battery to the trunk is a good thing! specially on a crx since our bay lacks space and it frees up so much more space. and by looking at the pics those fogs arnt the JDM ones but it looks like the APC one which arnt bad cause i own a pair too
