Hi.
I owned this car since 1997. Almost 19 yrs. time was fast. And havnt done that lot of work for my fd. Just keep it on the garage under my apartment.
After checking rotary compression test, i know it still has great condition as much as 8.2-8.4 for the result of compression test.
Auto tranny to manual swap has done completely and nicely except pedals. Using vented jdm pedal so far.
And done for lot of works as shown below.
All done for around half year.
-all of interior parts
-replace or repaint interior parts
-new gauge cluster, shifter boots and ****
-new premium leather seat. Not chinese junk.
-new wheels. Bbs rgr ghost chrome 18"
-new tires
-brakes caliper and rotor for large disc. Used 1997 fd jdm version. Which overhauled.
-new suspension. Not great one but overhauled adjustable shocks
-new clutch parts. Bearings and so on.

You may want to have this moved to build threads also.

thanks. That grille doesnt cost that much. You can find it with around 50usd. It is very solid plastic so it is very light weight but need some glue/putty work for tightening enough.
