i don't have the amount of mods that you have on your car... it was stock for the most part if you even consider poly bushings and a remote starter a mod... did your car sell yet?

New alternator for the one on the left. Soon to be followed by new plugs and maybe coils. Hunting down a hesitation/stutter under load problem

One on the right got a new number plate, took the front upper serial 9 arms out, new right front elevel sensor and a new left front ABS speed sensor. Don't break those, not cheap

Installed a set of Skunk2 forged aluminum black series lug nuts. I accidently bought set of 16, and found 4 more on ebay thank god for $5, but they were silver, so now it looks like I have a faux wheel lock. Total cost was $92 for all with shipping, they look sweet and weigh nothing compared to stock nuts. Reason I bought them was because one of my wheel locks came off after I had my snow tires installed, and I realized a few nuts were not matching anyways, and I have always wanted the skunks, so I pulled the trigger. Got a good deal on the set of 16 on sale at andyautosport online site.

If you try to buy these just make sure you get 20 set instead of 16, and I should have known better as I have owned many hondas before! I got excited at the price and bought impulsively, when I opened the box and counted 16, my heart sunk a little lol, thank god for that guy on ebay selling 4 spares. lol!

One step closer 225/40 mounted on 18x10s just enough stretch to get the job done. Unfortunately the machinist didn't open up the center bore quite enough so I need to bring them back with my spare adapters first thing Monday so they can be opened up another mm. A step forward anyways well kind of.

Picked up some black chrome aristo hid headlights, cf vis hood, and vertex front bumper. I'm contemplating cutting/molding the vertex front to flow with the oem sides and rear, hmm

Put a small piece of electrical tape over the "ECT POWER" light. Now I don't feel as guilty about my impact on the environment

Just picked up this GS300 with some higher mileage. Completed the throttle body cleaning to see if it would make it idle better when in drive.
