Mike ...what hp @ the wheels are you looking for from the Stock ~280ish hp and 245ish torque. I'm hoping after I get my gen3 and my RHFC's I'll be over 300 at the wheels.

I heard they all noticed the scratches on your front lip. I am sure some of the honda guys could give you some tips for a new paint job, maybe a zebra print or something to give some contrast??

and after seeing all the modded G's at the meet sunday, it sure is tempting me to let the modding begin. I should probably wait until my warranty is up later this fall, and once it is im dropping her and changing up the wheels! You guys all have some very nice looking G's and can't wait until I start making some progress with my car

I have 35% tint on there already, debadged the trunk but left on mt. fuji, painted the grill black and put in clear corners. I want to start the serious mods like lowering it next, I am thinking Eibach Springs... What would you guys recommend for the 2007 coupe

You could change your HIDs, get an intake, exhaust, etc.

I'd probably get a Z tube. Cheap and sounds good.

I must say it wouldn't be one of the first mods on my list for engine mods though...
Haha, why would you say that? Given that its a $260 install I would assume it would be the best bang for the buck mods and improve a lot of other things as you add more stuff along with it. I'm actually tempted to go for the M370 plenum spacer before I do the intake. But I think the intake should be first, then I could tune it to run a bit richer and add on another 20 rwhp

Yea I'm hoping to be at least 310 or so with my bolt ons. Maybe 315 before I tune it. We will see tho, it would be nice to have a weekend car/daily driver to rip on again! Btw, Eibach is doing a MIR for 10% on any sway bar/lowering spring kits. Check it out on their site.

Ultimately my goal is HFC, Intake, Exhaust, Pullies, M370 and not sure what else I could really do with it after that? FI??

I guess if I could break 300 I would be pretty happy!

Dan, you can do intake, suspension, exhaust....and none of it will void your warrenty.

If you start with springs, I would have recommended Tein or Eibach's....and right now I almost recommend Eibachs over Tein after seeing the prob Hossam is having with his uneven drop, which he has the same exact car as you(2007 coupe).

I will recommend Eibachs ALL day over Teins! It's what I've always run and have had the most success with. Never an issue with them personally, otherwise H&R I've heard some ppl running
