    step one learn how to post pics
    step two buy a camera
    step three take pictures so we can acctually see the car.

    thats about all you need to know about hondas.

    edit that, you learned step one, and step 3 is better :p

    great platform. if you look to lower it and not break ur pocket, go with an h&r spring. i have them on my 00' si and it's got a great stance and ride too smooth.


    have fun and research before you buy something

    Personally, I'd start with the basic Exhaust and Intake package then the looks if all you want is a nice DD, but if your thinking of street/Weekend Warrior, then I plan for a swap first... All depends on what you want. You said you were in college and money was an issue, so piece together all the stuff you will need to do whatever swap you plan to do, then get the motor and tranny... You can find nice LS's or B20's at prices you should be able to afford.

    x2 on that.

    You will end up wanting more power. Just save and get a trusty B16. Can't go wrong.

    I say lower it first. That'll give you a little something to play with for now, it'll make it more fun, and it will set the car off a little bit looks-wise from other stock Civics. Then - do good in school and start savin' for the swap.

    Are you female?
    Can you make it go fast?
    Rims ain't gonna help it.
    You didn't pay over $300 for it did ya?
    Why would you want a Honda anyway?

    Sounds like your gonna have fun with it and that's all that matters. I love the hel out of my Honda's and love the mpg even more. Keep us updated on your progress.
