Dont know where you can get a decent catback system for under $500. I would go with enjuku-racing.com...

NO!!! DO NOT GO TO THE RICE SIDE! Just get normal ones again, and worry about performance first. Just go the way of the drifter, and not get them fixed at all. But really, dont do anything cosmetic to your car until it has some power. Id save up and get a good muffler off the bat. If you plan on going KA-T or SR20DET soon that get either the Apexi N1 or Blitz Nurspec-R.
Guys we have to help him before he goes the the rice side!

Tail lights? Get the kouki style tail lights..... I agree though performance before looks is my style but its your car so do what you want.

I agree. Exhaust isn't going to make you go any faster really on your stock car. Save that $300+ and already be more than one tenth the way to a complete SR20 installation.... And if you want the sound of a 'nice little import' then just drill holes in the back of your cat... it sounds funny as hell. Yeah but anyway, no one is going to give you props for clear side markers etc.... But if you do go out and do it, we may just get a hold of a picture of your car, and then you will get flamed worse then.... I dont even kno, but you'll get flamed if you do that kinda stuff.

Lol. Holy shit, I almost drowned in sarcasm on that one. I have noticed that clears are cheaper than stock sometimes, so why not replace with them, especially ebay, you can pick em up for dirt cheap often enough... Christ they aren't THAT ricey. it is not the end of the world or anything... and as for the muffler, for 300 you should just get a dynomax rear section or something and custom pipe it, they make a deeper sound, you will never get a second look from a cop and they are cheaper BUT, you would be better off saving another 200 bucks and getting a catback every day of the week.

Dont get me pinned as an asshole, but IMHO this kid doesn't seem to be over 14, let alone have a job to pay for tunning. Shit, I wish I started out that early. Learn youngen...LEARN WHILE YOUR STILL IMPRESSIONALABLE... and stay away from these guys... youll get bad ideas

Oh, well if its just the turn signals its ok. Didnt the kouki 180 come with clear signals? But really, just save for a good catback. Spend the 300 bucks on something else like a good intake or a little thing that could be improved. No Ive got it, you can give ME the dough, and Ill be 1/3 way to buying my car! Good luck, and may the non-rice force be with you.

Unless you have a muffler shop near you that can do mandrell bends you won't be able to score a catback for like 3bills just save the rest and get something that you won't regret. $300 for a cheap system w/ little to none hp gains or for 200 more you can get a quality system.
BTW enjuku from what I know is the cheapest and if you want the clears knock yourself out but make sure you but amber bulbs in or condoms on the light so you won't get pulled over.

Shit, the shop 'round my way charges 500 for a BENT system. Cripped ta shit, lound as hell too. I want performance, not red and blue lights on my ass.

If you really like the clears go for it. Not too ricey IMO unless it is matched with altezzas and lighted windshield washers, But i do not suggest you go for a $300 exhaust. With $300 you will get nothing special barely any gain and will probably break after a few months( or rust). For around 500-600 you can get a 5zigen catback system which is a quality exhaust system. Oh yeah I also emphasize the fact to do not buy lighted windshield washers

You can get the Apexi N1 single for $400. Just save an extra $100 and you've got a quality exhaust, that will add perrformance.
Clear turn signals, and side markers are not rice. They are just accents. They don't imply anything about your car, except you like to change stuff.
I have clear turn signals, and they look sweet on my black car. I left the orange bulbs in though, so they still look orange at night. I got em for $20 of ebay. (beware, do not use your 85w clear bulbs in the new signals, they will melt them. They clear ones come with 55w orange bulbs. If you want clear bulbs, buy 55w clear bulbs)
The JDM signals are half orange half clear.

The kouki 96+ type-x had completely different turn signals
