Hey all, just recently joined the forum...gf recently bought a 98 SE-R with only 45,000 miles and she's loving it. Just finished painting the wheels graphite, calipers red, black housing headlights, and intake last weekend after about a week of her owning the car. She will be ordering suspension stuff soon...other than springs/struts what else would you all recommend for improving ride comfort?
and my car

If she's going with a KYB/Hyperco setup, I'd get some Koni Bumpstops and Motivational rear strut mounts. She'll need some front & rear strut tower bars too

Yep RX7 wheels with no centercaps...15 lbs 16x8, good size/weight and very affordable.

Mainly y-pipe and intake, nothing special. More into handling, the cars fast enough to me.

yea, i probly woulndt buy tein springs myself, but i like my cars slammed.
you could also look into the D2 coilovers, tehy are a bit more affordable than the Tein coils., ive never heard anything bad about H&R's and everyone loves hyperco's.
and yea i had a 92 SE a/t with the VE30DE engine. Place Racing CAI, and warpspeed y pipe, with a magnaflow. went 15.3@90
but the modding soon stopped, as i..
1) wanted a newer car, auto not that good for performance
2) like givin it to the Hondas
3) wayy more potential with the se-r
so yea, you guys should have alot of fun with her new car.
