    Yeah, I'm searching around for someplace that has them a bit cheaper. I need the adjustability tho, so if I gotta pay that much...... Well, I guess I'm stuck with it.

      Thats the same exhaust setup that I have Rob, I really am pretty pleased with the exhaust note. Only suggestion about that would be it might not hurt to check out Nu-Image Auto Salon off of Southwest BLVD. That is where I Purchased mine from. I bought it for 250 and had it installed for 40 bucks more. Later

        So I started ordering things tonight. Picked up a cheapo CAI and a WS2 on Ebay. The exhaust was 375 shipped, so I think I got a pretty good deal on it considering everyone else wanted 500+ shipping. Now it's on to body parts.

        Probably gonna order the suspension stuff and shoes tomorrow. I'm starting to rethink the motor situation. I'd really like to drop a H23 or F22B in it with a 5 spd, but I could just rebuild the motor in there with a couple of hotter parts and be cheaper in the long run. It's not like this car will ever be as fast as my truck, lol. I think really I'm more worried about it just being fun, and I don't need a lot of power to have fun with it. Have to think on it some more I guess.

          I can give you the SN's of two different people on KCSR that have offered me F22b1's for my wheels. LMK if you want their names. Later

              F22B1 and F22B2's are both sohc.

              I am pretty sure Rob is referring to the Jdm F22B dohc. Look on ebay, you can get one with 60k for $500.

                yea, the jdm f22b are dohc. they run about 500-700 shipped.

                HP to weight ratio, FTW!

                BTW, your truck is clean man.

                Kinda strange, from a truck to a family sedan. Welcome to the family!

                  Well, I've still got the truck. The CB is gonna be my DD. Normally, I'd leave a DD alone, but since I own it and it's a good, reliable car, I figured it wouldn't hurt to dump some money in it. If I'm gonna rock it everyday, I might as well enjoy driving it.


                  And Wheels/Tires are ordered now. I went with Drag DR11's instead, in 17x7's. They had Anthracite finish, and I'm a sucker for that.

                      that it does man!...

                      u should think about a good sway bar kit for ur car...it will really complement the coilover setup...even with strong springs and shocks...u'll still feel the sway b/c of the CB's suspension geometry

                      can't wait to c ur installed pix

                        Any recommendations? The suspension is gonna be the heart of this car, so if you've got an idea, LMK. I did order the tower braces and a lower tie bar, but I hadn't thought of the sway bars.

                            It's cool Mike. I decided since I can't find a 23 around here, I'm just gonna do a frank. Just picked up a head and intake.

                              The most comprehensive sway bar system for our car is the Suspension Technique...its only down point is that its nuclear green... F:27mm R:21mm List Price: $348.00

                              I think Intrax use to make a system for our cars...Im not sure about its availability. Found it: Intrax Anti Roll Bar F:25mm R:16mm List Price: $389.00
                              this kit is purple...

                              nuclear green > purple .............................
