Hi,
I purchased my NHB 30AE a few months back, and am hoping to make some little mods to it.
Any comments and advice welcome.

I have recently fitted new type r mudflaps and Heko wind deflectors.
Near future plans:
Hondata Mod to OEM airbox with ITG filter
CAF to airbox
Type R tax disc holder
New Gear Gaitor (Black alcantra with red stitching)
Type R Dust Caps
Front Fogs
Facelift Headlights
JDM Mats (Red)
Black Mesh (to sit behind grill)
New Type R badge for the rear
Mugen Pedals
Next Year:
Injen Long Arm induction
Facelift wings and mirrors
Sports Cat and Exhaust manifold (Not sure what kind)
Lower it 30mm
Remap
Premier Edition Front Calipers
Strut Brace (front and back)
Any ideas welcome

A good mod for your car would be one of brenscivic's custom painted cam covers
as bren does a absolute amazing job of painting them
I had my cam cover painted by brenscivic and it is done in black with the oem wrinkle and it looks fantastic :WOOT
it is a exchange of cam covers bren sends a painted cam cover to you and you swap it over with
the one on your car and send back your old one also brenscivic's cam covers are very reasnobly priced [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]
here is a link to some of the cam covers brenscivic has painted

Nice to see someone else with a 30th Anni [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]
You have some good plans for her, I would recommend uprating the brakes with new pads, fluid and Goodridge lines for improved feel and the 22mm JDM rear anti roll bar stiffens up the back end a fair bit.

if your adding the strut braces for handling improvements don't bother, they have no effect at all, spend the money on a thicker rear ARB instead

I think the mud flaps look nice and it helps stop dirt and little stones getting chucked up the sides of the car [smilie=karls_thumb.gif]
