Default Post up your next planned mod

This is a post for more than one reason, but mainly to see what direction everyone is planning on going...

Myself, Tein FLEX with EDFC. Roads here are just not good enough everywhere to be on a permanent ride height. I am also considering the megan tie bars and/or the underbrace thats on corsport and showstoppers.

Anyone here have any feedback on any of these products and how useful they actually are?

Having HFP suspension installed Monday, just purchased some headlights for a Customlightz retro for 14,000 HID's.

Also, researching NOS to run with the supercharger. The NOS kit 05134NOS (35 / 50 / 75) will work, but my mechanics tell me it would be best to wait until some additional fuel tuning (Hondata) is available. As long as I am not hitting the NOS all the time, a 50 shot should be safe to run without any internal upgrades. Still thinking about this one, since to be safe, I "should" replace the rods.

Next to last, I need a hobby, so I am thinking about buying a new head for the K20z3 and building it up with all the Brain Crowler stuff.

Last will be new wheels and brakes.

As for the underbrace, I have one but I am not sure what it is doing. Even with the added torque from the SC, I am not sure it is doing anything other than looking good on the car.

LOL, I know nothing about HID's. This why I am hoping Customlightz can do everything for me.

All I do know is that I did some research and according to the CHP, the "Blue" HID's are legal. I "thought" those were like 14,000, but again, I know NOTHING about HID's.

Head lighting systems on motor vehicles are regulated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) through the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS). The NHTSA specifies brightness levels, mounting heights and many other parameters for required lighting devices on all new motor vehicles sold in the United States (US), and all vehicles imported into the US. You may contact NHTSA at http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov. It may interest you to learn that the high intensity discharge headlamps which appear to exhibit a blue appearance have been tested by the NHTSA and were found to fully comply with applicable standards.

My next mod will hopefully be a in dash pioneer AVIC-D3 navigation/dvd player. Or maybe fogs or a short shifter. ONly thing is i'm afraid the short shifter will void any tranny warranties.
