Well, Im 17 years old, and have two younger siblings and thankful enough I have a damn ITR, so basically nothing. If anything, maybe a shift ****, but almost positive that wont even go through. Its hard to modify a car at this age. Espescially when you want to be a JDM freak, but work as a cart boy at a golf course and cant afford shiznit. I hate my life. Haha. Well, the good news is, its like the 7th best golf course in Indiana. And I have the only R in the parking lot. All these dudes with M3 and M5 and Benz. Never seen another R close to here. This got way out of hand, I hope i get some sick *** videogames.

i don't know if you're planning on going to college, but if so i wouldn't modify jack diddly. there's no time for your R in college and that's why my gift will hopefully be a new owner. also, i wish i stopped modding my car a long time ago so it would save me from having to sell the car.

I was driving an 1984 Prelude in High School, followed by a rusty 1986 Grand Am.

I got Cobalt Spec VR's, 10 bottles of Motul RBF, Racing shoes, Omnipower Sport Coilovers, Autopower Rollbar, Autopower 5 pt Harnesses, Moroso Catchcan, Hawker Battery, ES Motor mounts, 4 OEM dipsticks, a 33 gallon Craftsman air compressor, some nice jackstands, and paid for Expo 5.

I think I have some air tools under the tree still, haven't opened all the gifts yet, but they're heavy

Amen.....

But back on track..... Hope to give my R an organized garage to sleep in.....



The garage actually looks worse than the pic....cuz I've managed to stuff a compressor in there along with an engine stand and a few more sets of tires.....

Can I chime in?

Santa is bringing me jack didilly for the DX.

Hopefully he is bringing me the Lego City Airport since Lego started making it again after many years of me wanting it.

I did just buy myself some Ziex's to go on my CRV 5 spoke steelies for daily driving (thanks Black R).

Trust me, I am thankful for what I have. My aunt owns a small shop in Florida, and I used to have an EK and an R has always been my dream car. I worked a lot for her. Hope you all like your gifts this year!

Santa brought me my gift 3 months early.

Got the R in September. But I still wish that he pays for the rest of the payments.

For christmas, i'm giving my R a photo shoot on my cellur phone to use it as a background... since i put well over 10k into it this summer nad it's in storage it doesnt deserve/need a xmas present, it will however get alot this spring... For now i'll be focusing on the mugen intake, shift ****, steering wheel and hub, and synchros for this summer...
Merry xmas everyone...

Well I just broke the bank on TEIN FLEX's, Prothane Master Kit, Azenis, and Slip's for myself.... and the fam thinks workin on cars is stupid sooooo. All Ive got so far is a Mr. Clean master car wash kit... not exactly the Mugen thermostat, fan switch, cobalts, and rotors that I was hoping for. Oh well maybe I'll get lucky and get my fees to expo 5 paid for.

I don't have an R anymore. But I'm getting my replacement in Feb for my birthday. It's going to be one hell of a replacement though.
