    We need a 5g forum. I've never found a dedicated 5th gen forum on the net

    Has no one mentioned how clean this thing is? It looks great! More pics, please.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    Re: The new 5...

    Thanks guys. The power increase is pretty nice compared to the 3g so I think I'll go for some suspension mods and a few engine mods. When I get the need for more power, hopefully I'll have money saved for the H22. I raced my buddy's CRX with my 3g and barely kept up. With this car against his, he doesn't really have a chance to keep up. I also went against my cuz's Stealth, but I think most know the outcome of that one.

    I was thinking of getting TSX headlights retrofitted. I think it might be more than I'm willing to spend though.

    Keep it stock a engine..... Add a true coil over kit from TEIN, maybe some HIDs.

    Very clean car. Nice find.

    We used to have a white 5g coupe about 4 years ago. Only difference is ours didn't have the spoiler. The white one we sold with 300,xxx miles on it, yet still sold it for more than we paid for it. Sucks cause we have a gold 5g sedan now....and still no spoiler plus it's an auto. XD
