Congrats on the purchase. Which province did you import from? Anything east of the Rockies tends to offer rust issues if not garaged but your looks pretty clean. I like the JDM additions to match the front end. A set of JDM 16's would look great on there.

Very nice! Just like Dave's CDM with JDM front. I like the additions. Your JDM wheel is much nicer shape than mine.

I spot a JDM shift boot too.

Also curious which province it is from.

I know of a CDM 97 with 265kms and since it was garage kept it is amazingly clean. Much nicer body than my 168km example.

Those seats pop! They make me miss the red Recaros I originally had in my first 98.

The carfax was clean but I can’t recall what province it originated from. I purchased it from Vancouver, where it was mostly garaged. It’s pretty immaculate underneath, which makes me believe it lived mainly in Vancouver.

I just purchased a set of my grail wheels. I just need to have them refinished. Won’t say what they are, but I will post after they’re on the car. BTW, finding 16” wheels in ITR-appropriate spec is incredibly difficult nowadays. I wish we were back in the early 2000’s when I could just online shop for brand new parts instead of always being on the hunt.

Awesome! I'd love to know what your grail wheels are. Wheels are a bit of an addiction for me. Anything Volk monoblock, SW388, MF10, Stark III's, Grand Mechanics, are among my faves. Proper ITR fitment is a tough find brand new as most wheels available tend to have a lower offset as that is the trend nowadays.

Installed the optional side skirts and rear valances! Unfortunately the wheels that I wanted to get didn’t work out. Still trying to source a set of my grail wheels.

What are the grail wheels?

Slapped on some CE28Ns I had laying around while still trying to find the wheels I *really* want. She doesn’t look too bad, but a bit dirty. I’m going to store her away for a few months. See you guys in the summer!

New wheels! (they were wet in this shot)
