Hopefully I didn't miss it but what offset are those wheels? Yours and child's old coupe are the reason I'm buying a 5th gen.

cars looking great man, i also love those wheels and tires, they look so aggressive! also i find it funny that the begginning of this thread went from people hating the interior to people envying you lol

 

[95excommuter]

Great build, wish my 95 ex had some of your mods, but most of what I would want to do to it will require me tohave another ride to work so they go on the back burner for now, but I love the car man, its like a sleak assasin ready to cut some throats.

thanks child. yeah these nuts are boss!

new stuff soon: going to lower the rear hopefully about an inch more, and re-align the car, run -2.75 camber rear, and -2 front.

over the winter i am going to:
Pull the motor and tranny
swap out the trans for a fresh one hopefully lsd
put in an act clutch kit with sport pressure plate and performance disc
put in a billet hasport mount kit
clean and paint the motor and trans a fresh silver
swap out the looped ps rack for a manual one
new sway bar bushings and links
clean everything in the bay thoroughly and possibly paint it
minor wire tuck in the bay and delete the cruise control
