Re: 2001 - 2003 Post your ride....
don't hate this tranny as it is "smart" and got long gears, the 4 th gear got longer ratio than 5 speed manual, moreover you may feel like it is a five speed because it blocks torque converter for fuel economy
for the future you may start with 16 or 17 inch alloys depending on roads quality, do some exterior mods, upgrade rear brakes to disc ones, drop the car couple of inches

Thanks gearbox... well yeah the lady that sold it to me last yeat had only driven it for 35,000 Km which is like 22,000 miles from 2001 to 2008... 
interior is in perfect shape also. But well exterior has the hood problem which I hope can get fixed next month and ill have to invest in new shocks to lower it (not more that 1.5 inches cause of bad streets) and maybe some 16'' rims... ohh and the fog lights.

This is mine.
I feel the body kit to be a mistake and I plan on getting stock bumpers soon.
Back to stock headlights as well and looking to get rid of the puke green rims lol
But aside from all that, this car was my first love, so to speak, and I have big k-series plans for it.

If you want a good cleaning kit (IE: clears up haze and scratches) for it, go to Advance Auto Parts and ask for the headlight kit in the silver pouch, they'll know what you're talking about. The compounds in it are absolutely great and it even comes with a clearcoat application. I sell these kits all the time at my store, its worth your 20$

Thanks man, its still not finished, Future plans for the interior: Change out the fabric on the door panels, paint the rest of the trim on the doors, black carpet, new pedals, new shift **** (I hate the one I have, its got one of those little compartments, so the top is always coming unscrewed as i drive), rsx seats. Future plans for exterior: Body kit (My rear bumper is cracked & its cheaper to go full body kit compared to just an OEM bumper & lip kit), new paint (dont know if I'll stay black, or go to red), rims (im thinking 16"s), & gonna fab a large sunroof, also, I think I am going to put the stock headlights back on but im not sure yet (the projectors seem very dim compared to stock).

2002 Coupe
I'll see if I can find a body shot of the car but there's nothin special to see there. I haven't done anything to the exterior yet.
I do install my own stereos though, so here's some pics of that
And a video.
