Try and pick up some 17" Rotas. They are cheap and will help the looks alot. Not much more than factory rims these days. Congrats on the car.

You also might want to change the spark plugs and get a K&N filter if they make one for your model.

 

Welcome aboard! Omoshiroi screen name da ne...

 

Yeah... I was thinking NGK but what type would be sufficient?

 

Thanks! I'm actually Filipino (fluent in Tagalog). My older bro is more into Japanese and I asked him what fox was in Japanese (kitsune). I've always liked foxes for being agile and cunning animals. I'd like to apply those same characteristics into my driving. So, that's how I chose the handle and name for the car (oddly, its green... I intended to get white, silver, or black... oh wells! hahaha!) Also... my Mythology teacher back in HS said that my spirit animal was a fox. So yeah...

Here's a decal design I've been working on...

 

Here's a pic of the car from the lot...

 

Hey nice car man, as for the plugs get NGK's either the coppers or IX Iridiums which perform slightly better.

EDIT: It will good if you can take care of all this stuff right off the bat...

OEM oil filter
Mobil 1 synthetic
STP fuel system cleaner
NGK plugs
K&N filter
Tire pressure

Additionally if you start wanting to make more power, in combination with the engine/exhaust you could upgrade your torque converter. I've heard good things how this helps to release more through the 4EAT. I used to have a '00 Legacy w/ 4EAT and I always felt like it was holding back too much on the power delivery.

 

Thanks a lot! I'll go with NGK coppers, since I've heard that Iridiums wear out easily. I've bought most of what you've listed. I just need to go buy an OEM oil filter and I'll be set. Just have to make one last trip up to Placerville to finalize the papers (long story).

All the "go fast" mods will have to wait... I need to start saving again! But a torque converter is definitely on the top of the list.

 

Nice, well have fun with your new project
