Just curious where everyone stood relative to their plans for modding their respective rides...for me, I want to do the following and I think I'll be content:

Engine:
OBD2 Prelude injectors
Custom IM with enlarged plenum (pet project)
Ultra MDI (maybe)
Power FC tuning via Datalogit

Footwork:
Swift-Tohatsu rear sway bar
Mugen rear trailing arm and front compliance set bushings
NSX rear calipers (just because Doc Cortez says he can make 'em fit)

Interior:
Mount that damn carbon-kevlar Recaro bucket

Exterior:
ARC/J's winglets (JDM curb feelers)

What about j00 fellas?

I want a mOTEC stand alone fuel system, with aeorospeed Race seats, a custom 5 inch exhuast.. and enough naawwzzzz to blow myself up.

a good header, final drive/ flywheel... and all the track time I can afford.

 

- put the front suspension back together
- wash it
- sell it

-legend brakes
-action clutch (when my stock one dies)
-*PAY IT OFF* I still have 15 months to go AAARRRRGHGHGHH!!!!!!!!

Other stuff of course, but the above is most important to me at least.

 

Paint it Orange, just like my Dad's old 70's Civic CVCC hatchback

 

get an R

 

I'm almost done with mine... I like it almost stock, but with stock reliability

 

Hmmm first and foremost lots more tracktime enjoying it.

After that (and some of these are just dreaming)...

motoR/tRanny:
- Toda header
- ATS carbon clutch/flywheel
- Mugen oil pan
- Power FC tuned by Yack
- Exhaust #4
- Motor mount inserts

Exterior
- Mugen second gen wing

Interior
- Nice aftermarket seats, Momo/Spoon would be my first choice
- Install harnesses sitting in my laundry room (thanks Justin)

Suspension
- Mugen 26mm rear bar is I ever find one
- Koni/GC setup

Really I can't think of much else I'd like to do. I'm pretty happy w/ the car now it's fun and reliable, can't ask for much more.
