angling is your new friend
What do you mean? The tires?

Thanks Noxus, That'll give me far better results than searching for red instrument panel lmao

Trevonjs89 - I hear you bro, I really don't know the performance difference between buying full race coilovers or just buying some nice set of $550 shocks
I hope to hear about what you end up getting bro

Hey Trevon I was told to get some Integra type r springs
I'd say check the salvage yards but where I'm at there's a lot of Integra tuners

As far as my car goes I just installed HID lights
The brights weren't carrying enough voltage through the wires so I have to go get new wires and the halo projector kit didn't include long enough wires lol so I have to go get a bunch of red and black wires haha. HID is nice though :)

225-50-15 is a wide tire, thats like a slick or a R compound. If you havent tracked before i suggest jjust a 205/50/15 i run a 215/45/16

Samurai_Blue - I did end up putting 205's on, thanks for the input man
Before

After

Under the hood (haven't installed my Skunk 2 Intake Manifold, a lot of people are telling me to hold off on that because I'm losing a lot of low end torque

Aaand Halo Projectors / Angel eyes, my old lights were fogged up and I do a lot of driving, specifically coming back from Los Angeles at night, so I put in HID's in my Halos, also I've replaced the bulb in my left turn signal since this picture lol

No more exterior mods for me :p
Currently debating which cams to go with (Looking at skunk 2 stage 2 cams (are they all the same? like all of stage 2 is the same? There's like - Tuner / Pro Series / Pro B series etc etc)
Debating which headers to put in
Looking for a good full pipe 2.25" or 2.5" with no or a hi-flow cat converter, someone suggested Apexi? And then I just tune it and start saving my money and buy a dirtbike :]
Would I be able to put a trailer on the back of my car with a >200cc 2 stroke dirtbike? There's a hill that is inbetween Twentynine palms where I live and Los Angeles, not sure if its worth risking or just go buy an Enduro? Any input?
Thanks guys

Eh I think I'll avoid the engine swap and besides BLVD the post had already expired :p
I figure I could save up some $$ and buy an Enduro or a dirtbike. I'm probably going to start dating a chick who owns a dirtbike so that'll be a lot of fun

Scratch what I said earlier, I've decided to swap a JDM B18C ITR with my high mileage motor. I figured I'd do this because I can't rebuild my own motor and I know a shop who'd do the swap for $1,000
I found a '98+ $3,800 JDM ITR B18C with ECU and Tranny on tigerjapanese dot com, I've heard from one source that its a pretty good place, other than that hmotorsonline dot com has the same motor for $4,300

This is probably the wrong place to ask but I've got a 70mm Skunk 2 Throttle Body and a Skunk 2 Intake Manifold.
The Intake Manifold was specifically designed for the LS/RS 90-01, so I imagine I should sell it instead of trying to put it on the ITR? The Throttle body just says B series and its a 70mm, am I going to be seeing any gain with a wider throttle body after I put in a wider Air Intake?
