That sounds like a decent bunch of mods. Yea there's a place on ebay called 'jap graphics'. They did me a legal plate as the one you see in this pic was on the car when i got it and was too small.
I've had to put a bit of money into getting things sorted since i've had mine. Shelled out £450 for a new clutch at the end of last month, but the first mods are on the way with some Ferodo DS2500 front pads and honda grooved discs. I need a new manifold too. Great thing is, im not rushed to do stuff because its a great car as it is.
Where abouts are you?

oh dear! yeah they really do handle on dry roads... ive yet to own something that drives quite like this does very kool, brakes are awesome too! im in northamptonshire buddy! do you go to the south mimms meets at all?
knightracer in milton keynes do a 4 branch mani for 200quid... i have noticed there does seem to be some snobbery over branded parts with honda's like you get looked down on if you have not got a mugen exhaust which costs as much as the car! but that manifold was tested recently and performed as good as any!!!!

nope i dont go to meets tbh. There's defo a bit of that yea, but tbh there is some shite out there. I was looking at a tegiwa one on ebay for £400. Probs the one i'd be happy with as a compromise.
Make sure you find a decent place to take it to have work done too - i drive 40mins to the place that does my maintainance because they're a honda specialist.

Stunning car, a rare sight on the roads.
I just can't see past them in Championship White though. That 1 above looks stunning. Wheels aren't to my taste but the car colour makes up for it.

I was disappointed when I first saw C'ship White in the "flesh", it was on an FN2 and had a tinge of cream, or so it seemed.
I prefer the blue one

I know what you mean. First time i washed it and the sun caught it i was a bit disappointed but tbh i dont mind. It's not a sharp white, but i still love it. I like the blue too...but i had to have a white one.
The wheels need refurb anyway, so i may have them redone in white powdercoat as they come from factory.
