I've seen 2 7th gens modded at the royal bank on boulvard st-charles at brunswick. They were in the parking lot every day in the summer parked with some modded integras. There was a nice black 7th gen coupe.
Don't know that silver one - nor do I really know any drivers of modded 7ths .. I do know of other modded 7ths though - two ebp coupes, one with white graphic scheme (see it normally parked at home) - the other parked near his work.. one ssm coupe, recaro red seats I believe, minime commando wing, dual exhaust - parked usually at home .. two nbp, one was/is a member of the forums (though I think I went on his ignore list ), the other stopped me on the road trying to sell his old mags - haven't really talked to him since, but have seen his car parked at a house (don't know if its his or his gf's)..

As for the two 7thgens you mentioned, they work(ed) in that office building.. as for the winter, I believe they've stored them. I stopped by one day to look at the cars - just like a thief But mainly it was because of the Troubles on one of the cars.. didn't really like it, so scratched it off a list of mine at the time. Also seen a modded 7th at FS when I went in the summertime - parked along with the 4 other modded cars a safe distance from the store and other cars

With the lightened flywheel I think your accleration will drastically change. I hope it does. Do you have any other engine mods?

ACT stage 1 clutch kit to go with that, custom NoRedline exhaust with Magnaflow muffler + high flow cat, "resurfaced" (I don't know the english term) head for higher compression, stage 1 port & polish, Y8 intake with bigger t/b and cam regrind for higher lift. We need to figure out a way to get higher fuel pressure now

We're doing all of this now, It should be ready for April. I'll only feel and know the result when I drive it out this spring. Definitely should be a SIR killer, should cut close to 1 1/2 second on my 1/4 mille time. Don't ask if I'm anxious.

I drive manual.
I've seen alot of modified 7th gen in MTL. I find most of them very pathetic. Cheap APC Altezzas, big loud muffler and aluminum wing... (most of them)

I've had numerous 7th gens pull up next to me, start revvvving...
I just open my window and say...
"I know my exhaust tip is huge, but it doesn't make a lawnmoyer noise"
They usually reply "clean ride man" afterwards

You've got quite a few mods on your car.

They make us look bad.
I don't mind the altezzas and what not(its there money and they can do whatever maeks them happy), but I don't like the street racing.

Speaking of big wings. I seen a red si coupe,, with nice rims, a lot of decals, and a high aluminum wing, lowered suspension and I think the driver was a east asian guy. Is that anyone in the forum or that you know with that car.

I like the neuspeed sports cause the car drops 1.75 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. The eibach sporlines drop 1.5 rear and front. I'm also afradi that the tokicos hps can't handle drop very well. So maybe 1.75 can be pushing it. Does anyone here know abou the tokico hps? ideal is konis, but $$

I thought Tokico only had the D-Spec coilover kit available for 7th gens? It comes with the springs. As for the HP's handling lowered springs the answer is yes, I wouldn't suggest lowering more than 1.75 unless investing in a rear camber kit. H&R sports are the way I would go if I would change my Neuspeed sports.

I want to be able to drive around in the winter with my car.

I don't know if there is a set with springs matching shocks from tokico for the 7th gen. Tokicos has them for other cars, cause if they have a matching set for the tokico hps I'd rather get the matching springs.

Can you modify the struts to make them fit. I think you have to enlarge some holes.
