Life long obsession realized

So after lusting after an FD since highschool and settling with an s2000 back in 06 (which i love and still have) I finally bought my FD. 61k miles black touring fairly clean with no major work needed and 99% stock minus an upgraded radiator. So my goal with the car is to fix up the suspension since it rides funky (sway bar mounts are messed up) and then go after all the reliability mods. So far I got new sway bar mounts, superpro bushing kit and a set of JRZ's to throw on the car. Once I have time to do that I'll be super happy. Also picked up a set of re-71's for the stock rims as I wait to save up money for some TE's. Anyway, just want to say hi, and looking forward to learning all about this car now that I finally have one!

Welcome!! Looks like a beautiful example! How's the interior? Would love to see more pictures of the car when you get a chance! Do you know any of the car's history?

Thanks! its pretty clean. Does have some surface rust here and there but not bad. Car was an east coast car for most of its life but always garaged (according to seller) and it looks it. The interior is not as clean but I"m hoping to replace the tan carpet with black carpet whenever I can find some and later on down the line hoping to get some RZ seats to really clean it up.

I'll try to get more shots here this weekend. I really havent taken too many photos of it since I got it as I've been busy with life but happy to have found such a gem this summer.
