Pretty much looks like a stock ex with a tint. Convert the front end and tail lights to a 99-00, and with the lip kits you want to buy that will look very nice on your car! Also don't throw 18's on it.....no no no. Forget the big tach, there's no B in it. And ahhhh get a B and youre good to go. IMO but do what you want to do. Only you have to drive your car. Keep up the clean work.

So your saying he's gotta have a B-Series in order to have a tach in it? :roll:

Car looks good. Not a fan of aftermarket tachs, but its your car. :thumbs up

Once you lower it, it will look cleaner.

unless your building the motor you dont need a 70 mm throttle body. from what ive heard 66-68 or somethin around there is the biggest used for any type of power gain. also if your car already got a tach, why the f**k do you need a 5" one? get AEM Wideband air/fuel ratio or oil pressure or gauges your car doesnt have that help keep your car running smoothly. and when you lower it no bigger than 16" rims. Oh and Skunk 2 IM on d16's dont make as much power in the high rpms as i think eldebrock or i think its weapon x? some brand with an x at the end makes really good mid and high power with the intake manifold. and dont shave the side moldings. just get thin side molding. good luck with the build

I believe the USDM ex is the canadian Si if i'm not mistaken....the USDM Si is the canadian SiR. And a tach is a good idea for ANY manual car.

x2 is doing a 99-00 front end conversion. that front end looks way better, than get the type r lip and rear lip, and get same 99-00 taillights. also x like 5 on the tach, you don't really need one since you have a stock tach. all that aftermarket one is going to do is light up when you tell it to tell you to shift. really theres no point. don't waste the like 30-60 dollars on it, save it for a good lowering spring or coilovers.
it does look like a good start. take your time with it and spend your money wisely, make smart purchases that are actually going to make good gains towards your power.
