Default New Ef Owner.

I bought this car a few months ago. And I love it.
Previous cars: 1 - ej1 3 - s13s 3 - fc3s 1 - Fd Rx7

There are a few issues that I have. I will post about them in a bit.

Mods so far:
32 way adjustable k-sport coilovers
ksport lca's
Energy Suspension rear trailing arm bushings
RSR catback exhaust
91 integra front and rear disk brakes
arp extended studs
si front and rear mud flaps
si front lip
amber corners and turn signals
ef mid - wing
circuit hero shifter extender.
si gauge cluster
nardi wood grain steering wheel
si dash
si rear seats
crx passenger seat
recaro driver seat
32" wink mirror
mugen shift ****

Mods that I would like to do.

Rims - Ronal Turbos or some Diamond Racing *unless of course one of guys/gals have a better idea*

Motor -I would really like another motor to rebuild, and keep this car as stock motor wise as possible.

Fix - my current Recaro seat *has a few tears in the fabric and I would like to get another if you have any sources.

i personally would paint match the bumpers, other wise that is pretty nice ef you got there. And of course it needs rims but you knew that.

Not a huge fan of the mid wing but its not to bad...

Nice set of 6 or 7 spoke rims i think would make the car.... Whats it got for an engine, the d15 or the d16???

If your looking for another motor just for a little more get up and go, zc's are usually found for cheap...

Either way so far the car is clean, wish my interior was this nice lol In for updates

It has a d15.I was thinking about rebuilding another d15 and tranny, so I wouldn't have to mess around with rewiring and what not.

looks really clean imo! i like the mid-wing on this for some reason and ive always liked the black bumpers on the ef's. i dk i guess its just my preference. just get a clean set of work wheels or somethin of that nature. i would hate to see this clean ef all screwed up with crazy offset wheels and negative camber. i also love this type of recaro you have in there. i would love to find a hatch this clean. i am always looking for one. ggod luck with your build.

This is my current height I'm about 2"+ off the ground in the rear I think I will go lower once I decide on what rims to get.

I love the Nardi. Does that mid wing really stick out that far or is it just the angle of the pic?
