Hi guys, I've been a member of g20.net for a year and a half or so and thought I'd check out my cousins over the pond. This past winter marks the 2nd and LAST winter where my G20 will be driven, so it's time to go balls out with impractical mods!
So far I have:
Addco rear sway bar
Tein SS full coilovers (DUMPED)
JDM Xenon headlights (the real ones, ouch...that set me back a pretty penny)
2-piece Enkei Racing S 17x7.5 ET 35, 17x8 ET32 custom painted 'Millenium Jade Pearl with hand-polished lips
Magnum cross-drilled rotors
PBR MetalMaster pads
As you can see, I still have a long way to go...but holding out on engine mods so far due to an impending SR20DET swap.
I look forward to looking at all your Euro goodness!
If there's anything North American any of you guys want, I'd be happy to oblige at no profit to myself (some trust will have to be established first of course; I realize I'm brand new).

Ha, the pics are small enough that my dirt doesn't show as much as I thought. My spoiler is missing because I traded for a trunk without one, and my fogs are missing because my driver's side is cracked and awaiting replacement!

I love that, the rims are cool and I love the lack of spoiler, makes it nice and smooth.

Ahh well worth it m8, I'm sure wish I knew about them before I bought my standard JDM's!
Still I have retro fitted a HID kit so still have the power...

thanks for the warm welcome guys!
JC#79 - I feel the opposite, although when the financial sting wears off I'll be happier with my choice maybe... I sort of feel like a sucker when I could have bought $200 standard JDM duals and $99 Hong Kong HID kit from eBay and had it look EXACTLY the same, minus the Xenon stamp.
I felt the same way about the wheels...I paid $800 for them, $700 to get them fixed up and another $800 for rubber...and the damn things were rubbing the fenders so loud my gf wouldn't even ride along. Now I've pulled out all the splash guards and rolled the fenders so she's golden, and the rims are growing on me. Still wish I'd gone with my original idea and painted the rims flat black with gloss red lips and gold bolts....now THAT would have been tits!!!

Needs must on the mod front m8, hindsight it a pain but something we all have to live with... 
Oh & call me Rich, still loving the look suits your motor down to the ground wish I could picture what you wanted from the wheels maybe you could do a photochop etc?

Sounds like you've had to go through a fair bit of grief, what with the rubbing wheels etc to get the car looking as she does now...
...but what a stunner she is mate, you should be proud imo.

Thanks for all the compliments. :) Now if the paint didn't look like hell and the doors didn't rattle and the car didn't have stock engine/exhaust/sound...I might take them more seriously. :p
