driftxsequence,
You can try just working and saving up for one too instead of having parents buy the car. The good thing is that while working for the money, you can just read/visit this forum when you have a chance and just learn what people are doing in regards to reliability, mods, and the like. At the end, not only would you get the FD, you'll also learn more of the car and appreciate it more because you worked very hard for it.
BTW, cool model.

Nice way to put it!
I have received numerous PMs regarding that specs of the car. Rather that replying to each message individually I will post it here. Sorry for the delay, it's my last week of college and I graduate in 3 weeks, finals can be rough.
The wheels are CCW Classics
18 x 10 all around (the exact backspacing was done by a friend of mine at school who I am waiting on for the exact measurements)
Tires are:
255/35/18 R
245/35/18 F
*I know that this is not the preferred sizing for this width of wheels but the car does not see any track use and is mainly garaged except for the occasional cruise.
Suspension:
Tein Flex
Camber, caster, and toe:
I had a friend who works at a local tire place do my alignment on his off time. The caster and toe are at factory spec. However, we played around with the camber F and R with enough room for the wheels to travel without rubbing on body panels or fender liners.
Thanks again for all the compliments!

OMG!! How did you import a spirit R?!? AND you converted it to LHD!! Man how much did all of that cost? I've been contemplating the doing the same thing, but I heard horn doesn't work when you do the conversion, so that kind of held me back.
Car looks good man, just messin around.

That's the one. That bumper came off a T66 semi bridge car that I was building. I got fed up with all of the half-*** work and work-arounds that my builder put into it so I parted it out and started from scratch w/ a new chassis. Needless to say I now do my own work to the extent possible.
