:rockon: Very clean!!! Your car looks mint. Color is nice and drop is good. Back looks like it can go alittle bit lower but when you have people in the back or have something in the truck it'll even out. I can't wait to drop my car. We have some nice coupes here in AZ.

I think the pinch fork mod in the front put me at around a 2" drop. So far I really like the B&G springs. I'll have more input after I have run them a while.

DAMN that is a clean coupe. Beautiful exterior color, and the BEST interior you could get in those cars. And the drop is nice and subtle, looks good! Hard to find them like that anymore!

I noticed yesterday after looking at one of the pics that I had posted. OOPS!
Good catch and thanks for the compliment.

I have an addco rear sway bar on the way. I've got the Vigor bar on the rear right now but the bushings are a little loose. The addco comes with a complete poly setup and that should help a little.

I had my eye on a set of Drag DR20 (the black/machined) ones, but I think I'll let the camber take care of these tires before I buy anything new. I have a set of prelude UCA's sitting in the garage- but I like the cambered look.

Well, your car is pure pron so, like I said earlier, "If you ever get tired of it" let me know ;) Dreaming of having a Coup that were never sold in Europe..

car looks VERY mint. I love how low they sit the car. ...just wait though, another few days of driving on it, and they'll settle another 1/2". They are EXTREMELY stiff springs. I know because I have those B&G's too, and....

(why is it that I feel like I'm always the bearer of bad news)

...start saving up your pennies very quickly because in no time, you'll be kicking yourself in the balls for picking such stiff springs and pairing them with those Toki's. Those springs are hands-down the stiffest springs we can get for the 3G, with the exception of the G/C sleeves and DropZone sleeves.

Love how clean the car is. It's like a time-capsule right there. Interior looks like it hasn't been sat in ever. ...and please please please let me know how that Addco bar works out for you as I'm considering getting one.

Like everyone else said....That thing is MINT!

Looks real good. Take care of it and if you ever decide to sell it, sell it to someone on here. I cant beleive that car is so mint. Its so rare now a days since most kids usually beat them to death.

Who was the previous owner?

Carfax showed it was a one owner car from San Antonio Tx. My guess would be some one who was more anal retentive than myself. The interior didn't have any marks, stains, lint or even little crusty stuff in the cracks. (Must have gotten the frequent q-tip treatment.) This thing was bone stock to boot. It received a "decent" mayco respray at some time- I can tell by the scuff and paint prep work. Overall, I think it was a good investment of $2500 dollars- it's been my daily driver for the last 10 months.

yeah the paint looks good....keep up the good work...any other plans for it?
