Default Q-Onda CL, first post intro here

What's up CL, so just introducing myself. I was the old guy on HondaTech at age 43



so i just bought my first IS250. its a 2008 with 63k miles, and love it.
OK, actually i bought for my wife, but i'll be doing the mods at a snails pace.
this was her whip b4 the Lex
.
1995 Civic EH9


It was time for an upgrade, so i swapped rims with her, and traded it in.

I learned how to wrench on my own cars, and plan to on the lex also, which is why i'm here.
looking forward to learn and know my car personally.
here's a few pics of the lex. it's stock, and not a neck breaker, but we love our lex.

GRATS on your purchase! Looks really clean, what are your plans for it?

Thanks Icy350, When suspension goes, D2 coilovers, really liking MIRO concave wheels ( gun metal, or polished), some tasteful mods under the hood. Not slammed or stanced, but just a clean, aggresive, everyday sedan.
I will upgrade my rotors, and brake lines.
The brakes feel a little under powered for the weight of the car.
Engine mods as things go out.
Coil packs, F-Sport intake, throttle body, etc.
but I'm also in the process of building a b20v for my civic, so I have a few projects going
