:lol:

Greetings. I've been lurking on the forum for well over 5 months now and have decided to join in the festivities.
A small background:
I'm from Jamaica and have owned two vehicles prior to what I have now, they were a '96 Toyota Starlet Glanza V and a 2003 Honda Accord 3.0L V6.

Glanza:




Accord:





Now, the EK Civic:





D13B, automatic, 15" League rims ... stock.

Plan?
1. Suspension:
a) Toss up between Ground Control coilover sleeves and Koni Yellow struts OR Progress CS-II coilovers.
b) Front and rear sway bar upgrade. Haven't decided on sizes yet.
c) Possibly go for 16" rims and tyres, depending on what my power requirements are.

2. Power: I will be remaining with the D-series family as it's less hassle to have the conversion done properly, locally. In addition, parts for B-series are very hard and expensive in Jamaica.
a) Manual transmission swap
b) D15B or D16Y8 upgrade.
- The aim is to remain NA while I collect all my turbo parts. I miss the Glanza :roll: ha.

3. Cosmetics:
a) Motorized folding side mirrors
b) Front and rear lips
c) CTR headlights

Then miscellaneous things like replacing missing interior items are also in the mix, but no where near priority.

Thanks, man. That's the main reason why I got it instead of other options: cleanliness =)

Thank you. I'm still searching through the forum for the sway bar upgrade variations and reviews. Oh boy...lol.
