Default What to do Next

Just opinions on what should I do next. To let you know what I got right now...

here are some pics.

http://hometown.aol.com/cyrick2502

only thing different is now projection beams anymore. Other than that I have a High flow cat, DC headers, Nakayama exhaust, Short ram intake, Upper strut bar front, 5" Autometer Comptech Tach, Short Shifter, and recently a 95 EX Vtec head. Thats basically it. Now the thing is Im wondering what should I save up for next. Im thinkin GSR swap, or fix my body work such as new paint job, body kit and so on. Or should I turbo this D-series motor. What ever I do its gonna cost me some money Im just trying to decide on what to do first...thanks

1st thing i would do is get rid of the single wiper deal.. i also don't like the color. but, in my opinion, it's an awful waste of money to repaint a car, unless it really needs it.. :dunno:

well they paint was only done w/ one shot and no clear. and you can see they didnt really prep it. The old paint color white shows up in seams such in the door jams, engine bay and there are some spots on the car where the paint just chipped off and there is a white spot there. The person that painted it before me didnt do to great of a job.... not only this but I also wanna paint it the Daytona Blue and get me a set of spoon wheels

Get rid of the uniwiper.
Get rid of the too-big white wheels.
Get rid of the monster tach.
Get rid of the stickers on the door.

I wouldn't put Spoon rims on that car, the style can be made clean without necessarily being JDM. Admittedly the paint color is a little ehhh but I dunno if I would drop all that money on a kit and a spiffy paint job.

car doesn't look too bad, the color's unique at least. get some dark colored rota's w/ polished lip and red/clear tails n that should look good enough.

i'm assuming it's not an Si so i wouldn't bother turbo'ing it. swap it out for a B18B or B20 and turbo that and keep ur other motor as a spare

and i agree, the uniwiper must go. or at least paint it black
