Holy stock 7's, Batman! Good for you!
Why is this in the build threads? For the love of everything holy, please don't do anything other than reliability threads.

One part of me wants to say: take care of it, don't mod it, if you do mod it make sure it's reversable, don't drive her in the rain, if the wife doesn't like her...get a divorce. But thats all subjective...

Enjoy the FD bro! Have fun with it

Beautiful FD! I've never driven or been in an automatic FD before. Is there a manual swap somewhere in this car's future? Congrats on your FD.

Congrats on the low mileage FD! Simple aesthetic mods that are definitely reversible would be the best way to do it.

I plan on doing 99 spec for my FD but making sure it still can be reverted to stock as well as only high quality parts.

Everyone says they will add an exhaust, maybe a intake or a few other mods. Then the bug hits you.

If you're going to modify it...at least block off that hole you left in the intercooler duct.

Beautiful car but probably the only time I've been disappointed to see mods added.
