Hello everyone, this is my first Honda. Been loving it, it drives so much better than my corolla lol.

When I first got her




November 2011 Depo Headlights, took like 4 hours to replace them and broke all the tabs lol





December 2011

Decided to change out the radio, got a Pioneer AVIC-X930BT GPS



January 2012

Got some DC5 JDM Recaro from JDM Nagoya, they feel great!





February 2012

Changed the exhaust for a nicer sound-- HKS Hi-power catback



March 2012

Finally changed the rims to Rota Circuit 10 Rims 16x7.
Also got Toyo Proxes R1R, way better compared to my walmart all season tires.



Getting an alignment- dropped on Ksports Coilovers with SPC Camber kit

Looks great! Kinda local to me. How much were your seats? I'm looking to get a set here, just cant decide if I want DC5R or EP3R. Lovin the Rotas, look like the Mugen MF10s.

Thanks! What made me decide was comfort and looks. I heard the Ep3 Recaros were unconfortable. For looks I think the Dc5 Recaros look cleaner. I highly recommend these, the investment was worth it!

I've got the EP3R Recaro's (Recaro Sports) and I think they're SUPER comfortable. They aren't as heavily bolstered as the DC5R Recaro's (Recaro Speeds). I'd say the EP3R Recaro's are meant more for street. Whereas the DC5R Recaro's are more of a track seat. Just my opinion though.

JDM Facelift bumper and Lip, she looks so much better now!!


Update April 2012

JDM K20a Type r Swap..

Ready to be put in into its new chassis.



K20a3 resting in the driveway.. waiting for its new owner


Car without an engine.



K20a JDM installed!!




Some problems with the new catalytic converter.. ended up going to the exhaust shop to have the catback welded onto the new catalytic converter.


Some pictures of the seats :)


All made possible by Monjarassi, many thanks to him for doing the swap. Excellent mechanic!!, everything worked out as expected.
