Default First time ricer (pics coming slowly)

Hi everyone,i'm pretty new to all this Honda stuff so thought i'd bob in n say hi.
I've just bought my first Honda and i guess i've sort of jumped in at the deep end as i decided to go and import a 1993 SiR2 and by gum i love it.
The car itself is mica black with gold fleck and has white alloys.The car came with a b16a under the bonnet which is coupled to a 5zigen 4-2-1 manifold,cat back exhaust also by 5zigen,a C's racing short shifter and is running on Cusco coilovers.
I had said that this is how the car was going to stay but after only 3 days my own mods found there way into the car.These mods were in the form of Buddy Club short shifter and the actual seats out of the Buddy Club dc2 integra race car bought from the Buddy Club European HQ which happens to be 20mins drive from my house :-) .Other proposed mods are camber kit,m-tec(mugen) air box,5zigen de-cat,schroth white tiger harnesses,removal of rear bench and plastics and some more little suprises stuff to boot.
Cheers for reading and i'll hopefully have pics up as soon as my pc is fixed.

Andy

sounds nice, but why do you call it a ricer? i dont see anything about a ricey body kit or a bolted on wing

Yea, don't label yourself as a ricer.
It's not really a good thing.
