Howdy all... Its been a very long time since ive posted or even modded a car in any way. But, i recently got divorced and thought, hey, what better way to spend all this extra money i now have than to buy another honda and dive right in? Ive owned a couple of sedans in the past and absolutely loved them. Ive bought a bunch of parts and some of them have already showed up and some more should be here tomorrow. But enough talk and ill post some pictures and keep this thread updated as i mod the car further. Feel free to leave any comments or suggestions that you want, or even post pictures of your own. Im always looking for new ideas and inspiration.

the day i got it. BTW its 100 percent stock.

Thanks. The one thing I told myself before I started looking, was that I WOULD NOT buy a car that had already been modded by someone else..

Definitely not with this d15. Lol. I'm still up in the air on a motor swap, but as soon as I decide something I'm gonna get started.

I may do that until I do a swap/exhaust. Thanks. I hadn't even thought of that.

Thanks a lot man. I highly recommend progress coilovers. They ride amazing and handle outstandingly, not to mention that they are on sale right now for 595 shipped. Hard to beat in my opinion and I have owned most all big named coilovers.

Props, I just sold my H22 hatch that was built by someone else. I traded for it so now its time for me to start off fresh again.

I saw this up cl wanted to go look at but pick up my Ek sedan first. And I wanted to start out with a completely stock one as well. That's hard to find now days
