I have yet to find a set that fit what I'm looking for besides a certain set of Motegi Touge, but even then I'm not sure if they are right for this car.

Plus I like the stock wheels, they keep the sleeper look up and I think they look great.

I did look at these rims at once points, but I later ended up changing my mind

They are nice, handing is improved a decent amount and the ride seems smoother on decent roads, but definitely stiffer on bumps, and busted up roads.

Just wait till you look at your car and say...

"God my stereo sucks, I need an upgrade."

"I need more power, my car feels slow."

"The exterior is looking kind of bland. What should I do?"

I stopped counting how much I've spent on my car. I swear my gf is going to kill me the more I spend on it. lol.

I've said all those things unfortunately already, which lead me to where I am now. The stock system isn't bad at all, enough to make me go deaf, so I'm going to leave it as is, but I really wish it played mp3 cd's...uh-oh!
Damn cars really are money pits! I think I am done for now. Eventually I may get ground wires or if I'm crazy enough, which is very possible, go for 3.5 conversion.

Speaking of stereos and Cl's:

my stereo does suck compared to my friend's first gen 2.2:



on top of all the upgraded interior speakers and new head unit, he has a retardedly strong 15" inch kicker in a ported box, putting out 2,000 RMS and I think he said 5,000 peak. All I know is that I can feel his bass across the schools parking lot and I feel my whole body vibrate when I sit in it. He figures if he can't make it fast, he'll make it sound machine.

a couple more pixs for the hell of it

of my friend's stealth (non-TT) and my car at my other friends house

camera phone strikes again.





the stealth may be next for a little bit of lowering, even thought it doesn't really look like it needs it in the picture. FYI: the driveway is a little bit uneven in areas.
