After reviewing your listing of mods and wanted future mods

I suggest getting a nice set of seats!
All those mods deserve a nice place to put your ***!

yeah, I couldnt drive in my town as low as I am if I had that under my car. It would be ripped off in a heartbeat

I am getting a bunch of money soon as well, and I have been thinking about stuff to get. here are my ideas:

-New leather interior and dip a lot of pieces in CF
-CF hood and trunk
-nitrous (but you have turbo so forget that)
-accessory pullies
-lightened flywheel and new clutch

I plan on getting most of this maybe not the CF though. Im getting the rest, within about a month. If you dont have some of those, those are right around what you want to spend. some cheaper. Or you couldget your piping fixed in a better way so you could drop it.

^^I am thinking the same thing, OEM hood, possibly trunk. I want some nitrous as well, hehe. So when I get picked on by stupid little ricers, I can whoop some bootay. I dont really care if my crappy d17 eventually blows. Ill get another one. People like to say dont get nitrous, youll blow your motor. I wont be stupid with it, and if it blows, oh well, 300 bucks for a new motor.

What about RSX leather seats? It seems to be the mod you'd feel the most, considering you already have a serious engine upgrade.

I dunno, suprisingly, the roads around here are so smooth, plus i baby it everywhere i go. I've only scraped it once. And if it rips off.... it'll pull it right off the coupling, so wow, i've only lost a cheap aluminum pipe.
