Another introduction

[lowie]

Exterior:
Work CR KAI 18" (or similar design with a concave centre)
A small spacer just to push those wheels out a little, plus rolled guards

Can provide more pics of the CR KAIs if you want

I would recommend getting the right fitment first time around rather than spacers

Rims with better fitment will be easier to find, and easier to sell when you want to change.

CAI (currently a K and N short ram intake, but looking towards an AEM CAI)
Intake Manifold (everyone seems to talk about TODA, is that all that's available)

Larger throttle body (if someone can tell me why/why not to get that, post it up)

Exhaust:
Extractors (haven't looked to many brands just yet)
Hi flow cat
Cat back exhaust (heard good things about the power getter, but also have seen one from HKS that sounds nice too)

Suspension:
Tie Rods
Coilovers (looked into Tien a little bit, but this is something I want to get right first time)

A selective extract << lol

CAI = SRI (short ram intakes) are useless on DC5s, CAI would prove to have a much bigger gain...look into injen, or GruppeM

Intake manifold = not actually sure if TODA even make one, but either way the OEM RBC IM has seemed to have proven to be the best. Do a search

Larger throttle body = you will see very minimal gains on a larger throttle body without the engine work that you've listed further below. Even more minimal without an aftermarket ECU and tunning

Extractors = TODA, for a 'no expense spared' build

Coilovers = I've got Tein Flex (discontinued, now monoflex) and I'm very happy with what they've done for handling and range of height settings. Mine is a street car.

Hey Lowie..how were the tein flex compared to the mono flex?...

[lowie]

Hi Norm. I haven't tried mono flex, what I meant by discontinued is that you can't buy the old flex version anymore brand new... new line is monoflex.

But i'm pretty sure the difference is that:

Tein flex = twin tube dampeners
Tein monoflex= monotube dampeners

basically just a different dampener design, and the new monotube is suppose to be more reliable

[gunpoons]

and the new monotube is suppose to be more reliable

ask didz about that yeah

[lowie]

ask didz about that yeah

true lol.
well my flex shat itself too so maybe the monos reliablity relative to the flex is still better :P
