just do these things.

1. Fix the common problems first, IE: brakes, cv joints, etc etc.

2. get rid of the altezzas: burn them, run them over, sell them to some stupid teenager, i don't care just get rid of em.

3. get rid of the rims too. are they 16's with low pro tires? I'm sorry but they just don't look good IMHO. Everybody has them, and everybody wants them they're a fab just like altezzas and wings. Find some decent BIGGER rims too and some stock alloys for winter usage.

4. If you plan on modifying the F22, keep doing it, cuz all the money you've just spent on the motor would've been a major waste if you were going to go H22.

5. If you're going to still go the H22 route in the future, then do NOT get a Strut bar until you get the motor, this way you know what fits and what does not. Still get rear strut bar, and sways as you like. But wait on the front until you know exactly what you are going to do in the engine bay bcuz they are a pain in the ass to take out once on.

6. Once you are prime and ready, then go all out on building the H22. Then you'll be faster than me or even Nightshade
I already fixed all the problems other than the brakes. No the wheels are 17's with 215/45 tires. I don't want bigger because with my drop, they look perfect. I was thinking of getting a new set maybe next year (gun-metal with polished lip), but for now the ones I have look pretty nice. I don't need a set of stock wheels for winter, I live in FL .

As for clearing the stock tails as someone mentioned... Just look at the tail light, You can see 4 little orange clips on each of em, on the back. Un-clip those, then somehow (however you want to) break the orange piece into a lot of little pieces and pull it out.
