AEM cold air intake, sst 4-2-1 header, full 2 1/4 sst exhaust, JDM SiR muffler and new tires. i think i lucked out, only got 80000 km on the engine. some pics..

that's a MOST EXCELLENT starting point for project car.

about the only thing you really do, is lower the car with smaller tires. the ones you got are ginormous off-road looking thingies. lol.

you even have a JDM three-spoke wheel.

if i were you (and I'm not. lol) I'd get some new rims AND tires.

i'd get some 15 0r 16 inch volk CE28s or Rotas (8s, 10s or Torques) and get some low profile tires.

and lose the darth vader ****... lol.
