ill just copy and paste what I wrote to the other person who joined recently:

"do what I did.
i went from rice to nice.
check out my cardomain to see the progress.
www.cardomain.com/id/projectlunar

my suggestions are:

exterior:
hids
tint
shave emblems
renova grille
kit
rims
black housings
----------
engine:
catback exhaust (JPP or trd muffler)
injen intake or better yet CPE intake
supecharge it or turbo even if you have the money
----------
suspension:
TRD rear sway bar
lowering (coilovers or spring/struts)
MAYBE a front strut bar
----------


yeah thatsj ust off the top of my head

be prepared to be frustrated, and spending lots of money and time. this isn't a civic. parts are uber rare or expensive.




peaaaaace


oh welcome."
where many hate, few will love,
But for those who love,
they'll see what it's like to live.

Welcome Fernando.

What do you mean by next? As in, what do you want to work on first... show, go, or sound?

As for the '04 eibach springs... I don't think the '04 springs are the same as the '00. The cars are two different models and when you buy springs from eibach or tokico or TRD... the part # is different for the years.

Well I can say always check the wanted/for sale forum. I'm sure you will be able to find some used and sometimes new parts for your car.

There is alot of people here with GO power and advice to back it up.

Welcome to SG.com

Next mod should be:
1. Sell the INJEN, buy a CP-e intake.
2. Get a exhaust like: Greddy Evo [if you can find one], JIC Magic [if you got the funds], or even the Apexi W/S [also if you can find one, or go wit Megan Racing exhaust [haven't heard anythin' about it as in reviews].
3. Throttle body spacer.
4. Spark plug wires.
5. SuperPro dogbone bushin'.
5. Jim's Torque Rod.

Then for suspension:
I would suggest gettin' rims first, IMO.
That was i did.
I got rims and then lowered my car.
First mod for suspension:
1. TRD RSB. [Contact Reggie]
3. Springs [Eibach or TEIN]
4. Struts [TOKICO]
5. Poly R/C/A bushin' and also F/C/A bushin's.

That's all i can think of right now.
2000 Solara SE auto V6. Diamond White Pearl.
Top Speed Run finished at 130 mph. :o
Too many modifcations for the signature.
