Yes it is, well kinda still gotta get a few things for it. Axles were done cuz the ones I originally bought were not really fitting correctly so had to dish out some extra cash for new OEM ones. I can't wait till I'm done with this car so I can stop spending money on it lmao. It's getting me angry over my stupid hobby lol.

Re: AcuratePaul's Build Thread.
Big changes and awesome upgrades will be coming for the 2012 season 
starting to build up some parts now.
Was thinking of doing little sneak peaks but I think I'll just do a really big upgraded in the early spring time
More power! Better handling! Newer and fresher look!
Stay tuned!

Re: AcuratePaul's Build Thread.
Wow havent been on this in awhile car has gone through a lot last year. I dont have pictures at the moment but ill write up what has been done
So I decided to focus mainly on the look and stance of the car last year.
I ended up getting some BC fully adjustable coilovers 10k front and 8 rear. Also bought some skunk2 camber kit for the front. running -2.5 in the front and -1.5 in the back. Also bought a mircle X brace for the back of the car, no more passengers in the back of my car ^_^ also put in an asr brace which looks nice also have a beaks bar but im gonna need to buy some new LCA bolts that are longer then oem to grab the threads.
Also got my motors timing all done runs smoothly and quitely (thanks to john at JC Autowrox)
installed a red carpet had zero cuts so fits nicely in the car and looks amazing. Top off with USDM OEM type R mats.
After motor was tuned up found out the timing belt and water pump need replacing ...dammit lol
This year I finally changed the car under my name not under my dads name no more and got my own insurance, after being bored at work did a little research into insurance and where and how to get cheap insurance, also spoke to Vida gave me a little hint
ended up having insurance for $1500 a year and don't have to do any "e-tests" no more that saves me $350 every 2 years (you should no why so expensive)
Plans for this year, picking up a new set of track rims in the next couple weeks getting 15x8 949 6UL's great performance rims. Tires well thinking the stickest possible street tire or going into R-compounds.
As for performance well going to get the water pump and timing belt done, going with a straight pipe, also been looking into a "big" performance upgrade but not gonna say 100% yet, might do some internal work have to see how far i wanna go with this setup, getting bored with the type R's power i need more lol.
And as for the body well only thing that will be added is my oem type r optional side skirts preped and ready for paint excited for these been looking for them for 6 years
I have no computer at home but ill find a way to upload some pictures

Re: AcuratePaul's Build Thread.
I'm not sure the exact dimension I am gonna take one of my LCA bolts and bring it with me so we can compare it, all it needs is about 3/4" - 1" to be on the safe side. Haha saw my car i have been driving it more then usually set up my damping for street it is perfect now.
