ok... if you could do anything using import parts to put into a civic... what would be your perfect setup be? from the engine, to the interior, to the outside... i mean the whole works, what would you do?

Well my choice of engine would be k20(NA).Hondata. If im not mistaken its actually lighter than the bseries. Never did a suspension setup on a civic but first id try out some JIC coilovers. FLTA2 to be exact. JIC strut bars, blox sway bars, and prolly some omni power rear lower control arms. I would also get a roll cage install. and strip the rear. Spoon seats up front, with an S2k gauge cluster. Backyard special front bumper. cf hood, some 15 maybe 16 in volk ce28n. Spoon steering wheel, shift know, no radio.
edit*
i wouldn't get any civic other than a hatch.. crx, eg or ek, doesn't matter. swap in the k20 get some hoosiers and some 15 x 8" wheels... gut it, cage it, cut out anything that doesn't relate to the motor, brakes, or steering, and throw on some hawk pads, high temp fluid and rotors, ss lines, and a fully adjustable suspension of some sort.
niether would i but it seemed like hes obviously dealing with a civic or thats what he wants. So i pitched my idea. Would never do it though-lol
yea i just went out and bought my frist civic and im looking for some ideas and im clueless... i thought about doing a type-r engine swap and maybe even doing a rhd conversion but im just thinking rite now... anyone have any suggestions?im kinda new to imports cuse i always use to drive suv's and stuff like that and now im trying to get speed... i dont want that fast and the furious shit but i wanna have a nice ride that does alright at the track
but about that s2k guage cluser... can that actually be done, that seems cool
Yes it can but it takes a lot of modification. As far as taking your civic to the next level, i wouldnt waste my time. Not only bc its a civic but bc hondas are posted up almost everyother day STOLEN!!!!!! Its getting rediculous. If a civic is wat u wanna fix up, thats cool, there is a lotta shit u can do to them. But i wouldnt waste my time for it to more likely be stolen. Sucks to say but its the truth.

As far as looks go- I would have wanted it to look exactly like my old civic- just better body work (haha)
If i would have kept it any longer I would have finished it by doing a k20a2 swap (rsx-s with 6spd). And then built that.
