Well i finally traded my Ej6 and picked this Ej1 up. This is currently my daily driver, and hopefully a soon to be street beast

Some of my future plans are a better suspension set up, new wheels and tires, fresh respray of the entire car and an Ls/Vtec or built gsr setup

Any input will be appreciated on parts i should pick up Just to let you guys know i am a full time student with a part time job, Im not a baller by any means

Please Bump If you View

*Please Excuse the crappy pics since these are from my iPhone








Please if you have anything negative to say keep it out of my thread

on a budget... I can relate

go to the junkyard and find a ex/si lip
take your chrome moldings sand them, then wet sand them and spray paint them flat black( be sure to remove from door before sanding and painting)
buff/polish wax car thoroughly
save for a nice set of wheels, you'd be surprised at the prices you can find online if you search.
good luck

btw mudflaps ...atleast the front ones

Im thinking of just getting the SiR front lip but ive been looking at others. As far as wheels go, im looking at blades or si's for now but ill prolly go with a fresh set of rotas and tires. As far as the mudflaps go, i wanted those from the beginning, im also looking into getting some OEM window visors. My uncle is a financial manager at Honda

 

Looks okay for a used car.

What kind of rims and what type lip? Just trying to decide on which rims i should get

 

Thinking of getting some Gram Lights

 

Wow not even after a week of owning my new ej1 it got broken into last night

They totaly f***ed up my ignition, broke the latch to get into the trunk, took my momo tuner series steering wheel, and of all things my shift ****

Here are some quick shots of the damage





Peices Left over:






The break in was somewhere between 6:50 and 9:40 last night 10/25 during my Homecoming game
My friends 240 was stolen the same night , so i guess im the lucky one

 

Sorry to hear, imo before any wheels or anything, Security is always a plus

Maybe Quick Release, QR Lock, Alarm..
Just stuff to slow down any potentional theives in the future.. Then from there, its your blank canvas, Have at it.

 

Dude f that. Sorry to hear about that. Man, sometimes I'm glad I live in NC. Nobody knows how to steal cars here lol. Or at least not like they do on the west coast it seems.

 

thats [freak]in retarded how many people out there do not want to work for a living.

Ya dude i was just about to purchase an alarm for the car too
I also had a bad feeling when i parked it last night

 

your off to a good start as it is w the swap. blades and a spoon lip would look pretty good. maybe a light water sand and new coat of clear would help out as well. sorry about the break in

 

shitty man...... bump for my old dd.... =*(

 

Hide a fuel cut off swith . thats what I do. Buff the car and get some used rotas and paint them or clean them if they arent worthy. Good luck with your car!

 

dang dood, sorry to hear...thieves
