    Not a Corolla question, but...

    Well, this question pertains to my Integra. I can't decide if I should keep it stock, or start lightly modding it...

    If I start modding it, it won't begin until fall 06... since I want to fix the rust and get the car painted before doing anything performance on it... mechanically, the car will be near perfect in the next 4 weeks (replacing the last of the bushings, and getting new brakes all around)...

    Here would be my plan if I do mod it...

    Mugen Style front lip
    [IMG]

    No spoiler, rear wiper delete (nice clean look in the back), no side skirts (gonna paint the factory ones from black plastic to white)...

    Integra Type-R cat-back exhaust (the factory exhaust from the type-r, flows approximately 30% more than mine, and looks stock, and has a slightly deeper sound)... high flow catalytic converter, header, short ram intake, re-ground the engine, new wires, ignition, plugs... kyb agx struts (depending on price, might get gr-2's instead) and either h&r or neuspeed springs, approximately 1.3 to 1.5" lower...

    Let me know what you guys think...

    With suspension I'd go with omnipower instead and you should think of getting a JDM DC2 front end conversion. If not get a 98+ front bumper, its much sleek/smoother looking.

    the integra is already a nice looking car, a subtle lip maybe a little lip spoiler, a drop and some rims are really all you need looks wise, after that performance parts will play into the look aswell (exhaust, intercooler if your lucky etc etc)

    sounds good. the teggy's are always good sleepers to work with. some minor mods such as you want is good inthe sense that you are not going to over do it.
