I'm just hoping that once these parts are on, the bug will be gone. Because after these mods, it only gets more expensive and extensive from there. Hopefully I can stop, but I know right now I'll continue.

I know the feeling

Already have a DP, catback, and larger injectors saved in a cart online that I really should lose the bookmark for... but 270hp/280tq is calling.

No exhaust/intake/kpro....blah blah blah. Just good ole honda reliability when it comes to the drivetrain. No sense in spending money when the car will make 5 more hp with 1500-2000 worth of parts. eff that.

They are progress coilovers. Very good coils and they have 6-7k on them. They just need to be cleaned up. Right now I'm waiting on parts to arrive and need to pick a set of tires. Everything should be here in the next few weeks. I am probably going to buy OEM fogs and pick up another set if autometer gauges. Will be one hell of an install day.

Coilovers can be had for so damn cheap sometimes... I've seen sets that are the same cost as struts alone.

**** steelies.

And I could have picked up rokkor/raceland coils for $350 brand new with a warranty that will SLAM the car. But those are so cheap and have such a bad reputation, I didn't even look into them. These new are $1,200, but are some if the best coils you can buy. Then have OEM top hats, adjustable top hats aren't necessary since I won't be going too low. I just want to do it once, and do it right. That's why it's taken me so long.

I've been contimplating coilovers... my struts are due for replacement, and it'd be nice to be able to raise the car up a bit during the winter.

Plus, it'd be fun to set it like this while it's in my driveway... if it's the guy I think it is from the Saab boards, he dropped it even lower and broke an axel

That is just a perfect stance. Lower than I will be going, but damn that's nice. Have you given any thoughts on what coils you would want to go with?

People on 7thgenhonda are telling me to go with inverted tie rod ends and just slam my car. **** that.
