and once again... i'm not done with everything yet. I already have planned what rims I am getting, and it is definitely getting lowered. I'm tinting the windows hopefully this weekend. Can't spend a lot of $$ right now since I just bought a house, gotta concentrate on that too.

Dude, i got respect for you that you saved up your money, bought parts, and did alot of work to make it look good, in your eyes. But people on this forum like to see tasteful, performance minded mods. Ask any one who has been on this forum and they will tell you suspension first, and then engine, and possibly then body. Like i said i have respect for your work, but none at all for what you choose to put your efforts towards. We need people like you that are willing to work, to make 240's faster, handle better, and earn some respect, not become the new civic ricer. My advice, sell your wing for 5 bucks, put that in the bank and start saving up money for coilovers. at least then you bodykit will be somewhat saved when your slammed. I don't want to discourage you from being on this forum, or working on your car, i just want you to see that your hard work would have better payoffs if you put them towards increasing performance instead of "increasing" looks(in your opinion). Good work though.

sell the wing
sell the kit
use that money to buy coilovers.
then buy wheels AFTER your slammed.
then go from there.

To reply to Fries thread, neither of them influenced me to do import tuning. I have always been into imports before any movies came out with them.

As for slamming the car with coilovers, I wish I could. Unfortunately where I work and live we have steep inclines for the entrances/exits and I would bottom out everytime.

And to AZDrifter, thanks for the respect... but I have always gone for looks first then performace. My brother is helping me rebuild a motor... I plan on doing an inline 6 w/ twin turbos. Just hope it fits under the hood lol
