Plans are slowly but surely coming together, picking up a strut for it tomorrow.

trying to do things as cheaply but nicely as possible (girlfriend is up the duff)

but car will still have a new toy every month...hopefully!!!

looking to get rid of the 17's and go down a size to something a little more comfortable 17's are over-rated me thinks!

so:

things that i want to be done

negative cambers.

dropped 20-30mm on 16" white compomotive 5 spokes with a red rim

rocker cover done in red with white honda writing

splitfire leads & plugs

red dizzy cap

cold air piping in red

calipers done in red

JDM oil filler cap

one day

car resprayed in red

flushed tailgate

de-locked

now the sad part

Things that need to be done:

rubber bushes

cv boots and joints

Tracking

Anybody know if the boots and joints are difficult to replace.

Plenty of plans but limited cash flow...typical

looks good mate. like the plans for the car.

for the camber part. camber is like a supermodel, it looks good and makes everyone jelous but it a biatch to live with! i have some crazy camber on my car and i go through tyres like i can afford it :lol: but unfortunatly i cant. but i do put up with it. moral of the story is, just go for a wee bit of camber. . . enough to make people say 'is that a little camber on that', not, 'jumping jahozafax(or however you spell it)!!!! thats bad a$$ camber!!'

and cant wait to see the car as it tranforms! ;)

(i think i need some sugar, dave)
