nice kill!

it looks pretty clean... don't go and mod it to hell like most honda people do. It's almost guaranteed to increase in resale value if it's unmolested.

Well I want to do some bolt ons. Nothing that can't be reverted back to stock. The most sever thing I will do is a set of cams. And since I'm actually a honda technician. I have the skill and know how on how to do It without compromising the car

Awesome man. I've owned mine for a Little over 2 months and am already creating good memories with it. Only thing is I feel like this car May get me into trouble at some point during my ownership. It's not a matter of IF it's WHEN!!!

That's clean, looks like mine just different color. Keep it as a dedicated AP1, not too many as they are least produced compared to AP2 and many idiot drivers salvaging them. Also with some owner that think AP2's look better IMO, they both look good. I think it's a waste of money to buy AP2 parts dropped onto the AP1, money can go elsewhere in taking care of maintenance on them

Check out S2ki.com/forums you'll find more dedicated audience for our car.

Thanks!!! I'm already a member of s2ki, they do have a lot of good s2k info. And I am definitely keeping it ap1 style. And like I said earlier I'm gonna do some bolt ons to it. Absolutely no body kits or fancy bumpers. On the out side it will look stock except for an exhaust and the eibach pro kit which lowers it enough to get rid of the wheel gap. I don't do tucked. IMO it's impractical and It ruins the drivability of the car.
