There are no external modifications as you can see... that will come last except the rims... I'll have to go for 16" or 17" rims cose i want big brake kit :-D (12" disk)
For now i have strut bar (i think this is correct word for it) and air filter

strut bar was custom made so i'll put some pictures up later
last week after i registered on this forum, my Check Engine lamp came on...
so i went to service... and it seams my Catalysator is dead... well... not dead... but missing... the cells that wore inside are gone... its seams they beaked to small pieces (shattered) and went out thru exhaust...
now i'll put on custom 4 in one pipes and "sport" Catalysator ... so i'll get few HP more :-D
when i do brake upgrade, and do all suspension modification i want (lowering 30 mm) and with that strut bar on the back and sway bars... i'll start planing on doing some n/a or turbo tuning
i dont want to do engine swamp... my goal is to have well tuned 1.6 litre engine ... so i can put to shame some 3.0 liter engines :D (as does one of my colleagues with Accent 1.8 turbo charged)
thats from me for now.... now i'll do some reading around the forum
