Default My lil SOHC

so far this is the only pic that i have of her online...my mods thus far are....AEM CAI, DC 4-2-1 header, Custom 2.25 cat back piping, Hayame XT1 Muffler, Ground control coilovers: 275 front & 350 front spring rates, Koni Yellow Shocks, Red Recaro SRD seats, and 17inch Konig monsoons. I am planning to get some 15 or 16 inch Rota Slipstreams or Rota Subzero's as soon as i sell these...if anyone is interested...I am selling them for 750...with 205/40/17 Kuhmo Ecsta Supras...these tires only have only been driven on for around 2000 miles...the wheels have recently been sent to a wheel shop to be polished up..so they are practially brand new...i've had them for a year exactly...other than that..any input people...

slow sohc driver,
Khoi

I don't think it's sleeper if he's still got the sohc, as he's probably not going to be racing rx7 tt. Also I don't think it's sleeper anymore when he has exhaust, loud cai, lowered, on new rims.

hehe..sleeper..i think not...lol.....i plan to keep it clean though.....the next exterior mod that i do plan on getting however..is a greddy front lip, or xenon 4 piece kit..i was really anticipating on getting the mugen lip..but i fear of people stealing it..if i am like say parked at the mall..lol..its not that hard to steal a lip im sure...well..other than that..other exterior mods plan to be JDM civic replica headlights, carbon fiber hood, the Rota Slipstreams, and also..i plan on getting touring wing..yes yes..that will probably be the loudest thing visually on my car...but i have always fell in love with that spoiler since my cousin had it back in ha ha ha..96..LOL..but u know..its better than having a park bench as a spoiler..he he..

It's all good...

Where I'm from everyone's out to get attention, I guess I sorta fell into the trend. i.e. Lavender Civic with Invader Type 1 kit, Light Green Talon with Invader Type 2 Kit, Light Blue etc etc...lol, so yeah, this is the first time I've seen a group of ppl that like to have that "clean" quiet look. "To each their own."

p.s.
Go to http://www.visracing.com if you wanna see the kits. hehe

if you do find some for 350..thats a very good deal...those deals come very rare in oklahoma..and most of the time..those wheels are stolen..when they are under 400...I'll stick with my bronze Rota Slipstream or subzero idea for now..he he..

Slow SOHC out,

why do you wanna get ride of your 17's? They look good! I dont think anyone really bashes 17's unless they're bling bling. theres a lot of cars that look really good with 17's and yours is one so keep em!

ah your on the JDM kick =] Well you'll definately get big points with the people here at HT considering most of em consider anything not JDM rice. I like the look of JDM but i also like the custom look, so either way it'll be cool.
