Post subject:  What's next?

Ok guys I need some help. I don't know what I want to do next or what I should do next.
17" Enkei's.
Neuspeed lowering springs 1.75".
Koni fully adjustables.
some bobo ass intake & exhaust.
I thought about brakes but the ones I would like are $1200 Grand Turismo Racing ones
So I've thought maybe Tie rods Upper lower front and rear. I'm thinking that I'm just going to go with everything not engine related because of the simple fact that I asm going to do a K swap in a year or so. Tell me what ya'll think.

Why dont you get big rotors, and CRV calipers since you already have 17" rims. Otherwise you could just get some Brembo slotted rotors, EBC Green Stuff pads, and some stainless brake lines, that would help your stoppage a lot!

Handling and stopping. But I figured those would be one in the same.

A K swap, eh Matty? Sweeeeett.

I'd either start collecting various swap-related items, OR, focus on looks for a sec and get a CF hood and trunk, maybe paint the roof black too :up: Then it'd be HOT.

Definitely start stocking up for the swap.

Buy the mounts, a clutch, flywheel, etc. Anything that's going to be needed to do before the motor is in, or to put the motor in.
