Currently have the RSX-s as previously listed and now a 1989 BMW 325i.
Plans for the 325i if the body shop tells me it's worth the effort and expense:
New suspension-springs/shocks lowering ~1.5"
Brakes-New cross drilled rotors all around/new pads/rebuild calipers (paint)
Replace MAF meter, intake
Replace exhaust system-headers, testpipes, muffler
Chipset-Turner or whoever else
Wheels-15"X7.5" or 16"X7.5" offset 25mm
Tires-225/xx/VorZxx
Repairs to rust spots/dents/replace trunk lid
