Like my engine is still on warranty... So i wont touch it... but when it wont be on warnanty, it will be someting else... but d17 are not the best engine honda has made
.... so i'm not sure if ill put much money on it
May be just a custom exaust like Redviking is building right now would be a good option for a d17
Ill pile up my money to swap my motor one day... i whant to keep my 7thgen for at least 15 years... so i a couple of years, when my d17 will have 250k on it, ill start to check so buy that time, we should figure other motor option for the 7th gen

But, in my opinion fort he warranty, it's worst to put an aftermarket intake on than an exhaust. One filter what is going into the engine the other one is the exit...

The remaining few part I have or had were from ebay or used stuff.
Check on the CCQ site, they have some good link for speedshop. User FastSi has usually very good price, but he is located in Trois-Rivieres...
SparkMotoring in Laval seems to have good prices also.
I know somebody that can sell me DAI product at interesting good prices... but DAI + suspension =
(if you want eyelid or a front grill, you can save some cash!)You should check for a used suspension... there is a lot of action in the For sale section of this site. A lot of person are returning their car and they part out!
Check for group buy on Mtlracing or CCQ also.

Your questions begs the question, what do you mean by "cheap suspension"?
If you want something new, probably the best deal right now would be through Johnny Motorsports - through MTLRacing that is offering US prices X1.25 (then plus tax) .. no worries about shipping, etc Not eBay stores/prices, but still some good pricing can be found on reputable sites

i`d like to try the canuck coil with a good shock or some adjustable coilover so ill be sure to drop not too low in the back... i'd like to drop 1 to 1.5 so ill be able to drive my car in winter
I'd like to pay up to 800-900 total for that.
so if i buy the canuck coil at 150, that give me 650+ for 4 shock and it should be more than enought...
i still go a few month to think of what ill do

I saw that this morning on the PAC: http://www.lespac.com/search/detail....ffre=t&etatb=t
It's in french, but basically Terrebonne Honda is doing a cleanup of the inventory and they are "supposed" to letting go the stuff really cheap...
I drop him a mail... here are some prices:
Hybrid civic rear spoiler: 429.97 (
it's just a 3 feet plastic piece!)
Reverb front lips: 499.99 (that seems okay)
Side skirt: 322.80 (
good?)
fogs light 04-05: 425.00 (liquidation price???
)
Is it just me but, these are not "really cheap" price!!!
I was hoping for better prices... They won't see me (and I have no money to spend prensently!!!!)

Oh yeah, those look like good prices for sure. 500$ for a front lip is crazy in my opinion. Though maybe I'm not looking at this properly as well it is an OEM part. Still, when I can get a full polyurethane lip-kit (4 pieces) for about 850$ there is something wrong with that much for just the front.
But like I said, perhaps I really don't know pricing and this is "cheap" as compared to retail for OEM stuff. I wouldn't touch it though with a ten-foot pole however.

I think the guy is keeping a little percentage for himself in this sale! Maybe if you show up at Terrebonne Honda the price will be lower... He said, don't call me, send me an e-mail, that way he can manage to make some profit!
But as you saud: It's OEM ****!

Simpaty:That image comes from a 2002-04 RSX. The 2005 seats were redesigned.
Wish I could easily find a picture but I can't seem to.. The only thing really that worries me out of that is practically everyone's concern with the suede. If he's close by, I'd say go take a look and possibly take pictures, but that is about as far as I would go for the moment.

For starters you be missing the bolsters on the side in the minimum. As well, there are modifications needed so it fits the coupe, I cannot imagine it being direct to a sedan. Maybe I could try to take measurements from a friend's car...

Acura 1.7 EL Premium leather rear seats are a direct bolt-on (first-hand experience here). Also, very simple to install - took all of 5 minutes really

Though honestly, thinking about if I want to keep this mutation or start a newer one up - still being a mutant as the organs would be transplanted, save for the Toyota section, well that could be saved.. but would need a bit of work that I'm not too familiar with doing at this point.
