some progress over the past month or so (pics of course)
Its not much, but just a few things i have bought over the past month or two. This is my first time with the image shack hosting. I always use WTDR but their servers are down, so let me know if you cant view them. Picked up some RT-615's at the end of may/beginning of June
gotta throw in some JDM OEM
Thanks to ICB 
J's Racing whale apparatus
when i bought the car at the end of last year, it was pretty riced out and cleaned up the valve cover using a grinder and $8 bucks worth of paint to clean it up. Here are some pics before and after. The engine bay dos need to be cleaned up including oil cap, OEM strut bar or mugen, and basic degreasing all around. I would rather have an OEM honda valve cover but just decided to use what i had. Oh well, im not mad at the results
before
after
here is a pic from last weekends autocross in TIRE RACK's parking lot with my neighbors 911 turbo
this winter the 97 ITR is going in for a new coat of CW and back to the 97 front instead of the 98+ conversion that is on there. Next up is the header and exhaust, and the plan is the J's 60RS setup

Gee, thanks for your input
I was going to just buy an OEM valve cover, but didn't feel like paying $150+ for something that i could somewhat fix for $8

yes, the car was in a fender bender due to the previous owner, and when a relative of mine who owns a shop bought it, there was an extra 98 bumper that was laying in the shop so they went ahead and put it on. When i get my new paint this winter, the 97 front is going on as well.

my beater truck is getting fixed right now, i work at a golf course and get really dirty there hence the grass in the car, in the process of moving stuff to a new house, that is what is cauing all the dirt. Between all this and track events on the weekends i havent had the chance the last two weeks to really clean it all out. I have this sunday off and those are my plans.

yes you do... there was a huge discussion months ago about this when i purchaed the car in the winter. I posted pics cause i finally bought one, got hated on (whats new), and had to take more pics and had to prove that it was a type r. The previous owner had a sunroof installed (unfortunatly) and there really is nothing i can do about this...

That addresses one of 4 issues I inquired about. I am also curious about the sunroof...
