GSRSOL's EJ8
Thought id make a thread here for my upgrade path, save you all looking back in the introductions section 
The car is pretty much dead stock at the moment, stock hideous ride height etc etc.
I have managed to get some Si wheels, which are in pretty bad condition and will need to be either machined or powder coated another colour. I also got the Interior out of the Si that the wheels came off (it was a write off), and have fitted a K&N typhoon CAI.



next on the agenda is some coilovers - either some Spoon, GAB, Tein or Cusco ones - basically whatever I can get for a good price off Yahoo Japan. Some CTR goodies will hopefully follow, a CTR cluster, CTR steering wheel, CTR floor mats, CTR recaros, and door trims.
Im also in need of an SiR front lip, some Si tails, and a new Cat-Back system of some description.
Then once this has all been done it will be time for some fresh paint.
Ill keep you posted with the progress

Is where I got my SiR front lip.
Check often they are always getting new things.
Do you get JDM items cheaper then us in the states do?

RE: GSRSOL's EJ8
no not really, we get rinsed here, especially for genuine honda stuff. I get most of my stuff off yahoo jp, its usually nearly 60% cheaper. Some things you have to buy here though, so I guess whatever I save on something i usually lose out on something else ...
