Well this is my new 18 year old car, 1994 ST manual. currently on 227K miles. Previous owner replaced the engine rite before i got it from him. Runs pretty smooth. cant complain.


When i got it it had a nasty dent on the door, first week i had her i went to the salvage yard and got a replacement door, this one just had a smaller dent laugh.gif but it was the only white they had.

Then she looked like this.












About a week later the first 'mod' took place.

put on some JDM projectors w/HIDs and clear highs.
clear side marker
clear indicator

followed by some led conversions
cluster, liscence plate, glove, front accent thing in the projector lights, and side markers. ALL white LEDs


washed/waxed the car, took her for my first immature photoshoot.


















So far this is it.
Future plan:

dont really want to waste money on performance parts on the 7a, id rather save up for a 3s swap when i read more and master the swap threads/stickies.
Looking for more suspension side.

cant decide whether i should save for coil-overs, maybe megan or BC if i find some
maybe polyurethane bushings. sway bar etc.



and visual wise, jdm rear,
rear trd style spats.
trd front bumper (yea if i find one) or ssiii lip.
and 404 or trd replica sides.

maybe change the rims dont know yet.

ECU doesn't care really, it's a half/half thing Half upgrade half downgrade. C60s are kinda weak compared to C5x's, but their gearing is so much better suited for N/A. A couple of friends of mine shaved off time from their 1/4 by bolting on a C60 onto their 1ZZ's, but one of them broke it already.
