Ok ppl.

I wanna tell you abut about my new toy.

It's a 1999 5th Gen in black.

73000 on the clock.

One owner

Full red leather interior

Tiptronic (gearbox has been replaced 50000 & the torque converter at the same time)

Aircon

Cruise control

Electric sunroof, windows n mirrors.

"DOTZ" alloy wheels

4WS

Now, what I'm interested in finding out, is how good a spec is it?

Are there any extras apart from front fogs that I ain't got?

What sort of things/mods wod YOU do?

Looking for a bit of inspiration really as I come from a civic background and not that sure what's good n what's not.

Any feedback and details on meets near Essex/Hertfordshire/London would be great !!!!

If you need caliper(s), you could do a lot worse than get some ATR ones. The twin pots give more braking power and bolt straight on with Lude discs and carriers. Or as you need discs as well, get some larger ATR ones and carriers to complete the upgrade?

Its not something I have done, but others that have seem pleased with the results. Definitely on my 'to do' list.
