Do u have a 5MT or automatic?

What is your driving style? Do u like sports driving? If so u just want straight line power or u wanna have better handling?

I would say just keep it as close to stock as possible. A set of better front brake pads & camber bolts will be nice add ons for your car.

my cars black, i already tinted the windows, hid kit, added some visors, and planning to put on a greddy ti-c exhaust sometime soon

not lowering it or adding rims

would that look abnormal or ugly ??

or is it just fine ?

People say that lowering springs are great but when i put my t1r s coils on it made my car bounce every time i hit a bump so for myself ive been mostly internal and leaving the suspension til i get a coilover kit.

Talk to the guys at H-SPHERE (AJr Racing - they are a vendor here)
They're really good. they'll spend the time to inform you of anything that you need. They're located in RIchmond. (Close to Ikea)


PS: i'm selling a header if you're interested. :P

If u can find some 15" integra mesh rims, they look great on black fit with 195/55R15 tires. One advantage if u go 15" is there are more choices on tires available. From all season to summer/winter to even competition tires.

If your parents are gonna be driving it, leave the shocks & springs & muffler stock for now. They won't like the bumpy & noisy ride. Get camber kit instead though. If u need help getting that & installing them, let me know.

Toy Yoda: How much are u asking for on the megan header?
