Clean FD man. What has been done to it so far? Is that a stock air box and stock IC? You should probably take care of all the major reliability mods first of course! Oil coolers, larger FMIC, CAI. Also put some seat covers on those nice seats! The interior looks very well maintained for an 18 year old car, keep it that way

the car has tein coilovers on it and an apexi dual n1 exhaust. thats how i bought it. it also came with that intake system which the guy told me is an hks box intake. i dont like it and i dont like the teins cuz they dont drop low enough so that stuff will be replaced over the winter. as for mods ive purchased already, ive done like you said and made sure its reliable. picked up some aftermarket gauges to keep a better eye on the motor. picked up some parts the car just needed like an oil pan gasket, rear axle seals and stuff. im bringing the car back to perfect working condition. ive got a lot of ideas and things i want to do to the car. and yes the interior is MINT on this car. i will be sure to keep it like this!!

looks nice in white. also makes it the easiest to work with, since so many combinations (colour themes) can go so well with it.
