So, I've looked in the topic and I'm already in some pics there in kart track and driving from rrobis home.
The MOT after purchase was passed without any issue
Basically, I have no idea what to update on exterior except headlights, as you've noted, I'm already looking for them in "market" section. :)
About interior, the same, all will be kept stock (a least I think so at the moment).
About engine, 2 options, flywheel, camshafts, and refresh valve cover. :D
If everything else fails, read the manual!

So, spring is coming again (this year) and some parts are collected and to-do list is written down before season:
New Oil, chose Motul Sinergy+ 10w40, + Bosch oil and fuel filter
Brake fluid to replace, Dot4 Motul RBF 600
Platinum Bosch spark plugs
Air filter already cleaned, waiting to dry and then will be oiled.
Bought JDM rear number plate from James 5th gen . The plate need some modification tough, the hole will be molten solid because the number plate in my country is too small. :D
Received JDM headlights. Dipped beam reflectors replaced and headlights are already in process for some refreshing. One was solid but second screamed for love, it had around 20 holes in housing and cracked corner. :wave: Still, giving a shot.
Heres the holes:

Here's the reflector difference - JDM vs EDM:

Thanks!
As vanzep said, on koni(-10 or 20 drop), + 35 on springs.
I've bought new adjustable koni pair for rear axle, now slowly looking for fresh front ones.

The season is over and car is stored till spring.
A to do list is being prepared for the new season.

Some of you may noticed the question about ERF child seat in prelude, I'll post here as well.
It's possible to install Britax HI-WAY II without big issues.
Fron passenger seat is pushed and folded forward to maximum. So, up to 2 yearls old, no issues, not sure about 2.5. There's no much place for legs for the kid.

Just an idea Lie for the child seat, could you take out the rear back cushion, and replace it with some thin fire proof padding to give the bairn some leg room :)
