LOL....the fisrt thing you should have done is get rid of that ugly A$$ bodykit!!! it would look clean if it was in the stock body form!

**evilSTi7** · 04-02-2007, 09:51 PM

i actually dont think the car looks bad. Probably handles pretty well too.

joscolem · 04-02-2007, 09:51 PM

The poor turd has had that bumper and body kit since '96. I've been thinking of putting the factory bumper on and going with a mugen front lip.

I can't wait for the '08 STi to preview at the Frankfurt Auto Show. So, I can decide to buy a '08 STi, rs swap or mod a Forester XT.

joscolem · 04-02-2007, 10:35 PM

Before.......struts were toast, springs were toast, no sways, no camber kit, no rear discs, no new exhaust

After New shift linkage, struts and springs, sways front and rear, new exhuast and hi flow cat, rear disc conversion, camber adjust kit front and rear

SubyDoode · 04-02-2007, 10:46 PM

+1 on the factory bumper kit

***reeksti*** · 04-02-2007, 11:48 PM

doesnt look bad at all, whens the turbo getting slapped on lol

ghibli99 · 04-03-2007, 08:22 AM

Looks-wise, I loved it with the blown suspension!

Hondas always look best slammed.

EF/EG-era Civics are some of the most fun cars to wrench on, too.

I wouldn't mind having a car like that....more reliable than my '86 Camaro!!!!! Might have to get something along these lines in a year or two for a nice beater! Def would turbo it!
