Judging by how you mod cars, it looks like you'll be following the JDM market young one

yeah, honda-tech just isnt the same anymore... for the most part all the OG's left... I've been a member there since 2003 and over the years, wow things just went downhill.
I am aware that as far as power is concerned there is not much us AWD 250 owners can do, having said that... what do you guys suggest I consider in terms of power? F sport intake, exhaust? I am wondering tho... is it possible for me to put the 08' NAVI system in my car w/o any other modification? Also I heard the dealership would turn off my DRL free of cost, but they tried charging me $40.00... not gonna happen lol anyways glad to be a member of this community now and I hope to meet a few of you! Are there any events you guys do? I've been to ITR expo a few years... wondering what the local gatherings are like

2IS- I am roughly 3.5-4hrs from downtown, I lived in the northwest sub's for a year in Glendale Heights while I attended that absolute joke of a school UTI. At least i'm back at Michigan State getting a "real" education lol

Kenny_evo- I'm located in Lansing, are there many of us around here? Have you been to the Bdub's meet @ Twelve Oaks? I think it used to be mostly just subaru guys, but a few of us ITR and s2k ppl used to go out there

For that price buy some white VLED LED DRLS. They look sick!

Cool! Here's an upcoming meet in Michigan: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/chi...-the-list.html

There's alot of other meets (multi type/brand) if you ever head out towards the Chicago area. Check out the local events in the Chicago forum or feel free to PM me and I'll let you know if there's anything going on.
