new to sit and honda. auto-cross set-up?
So I have a 95 civic CX HB. So I did about 4 auto-crosses last year with the car. At that point it had suspention technics 22MM front and rear sway bars, stop-tech drilled rotors and EBC green stuff pads. oh and 16X7 alloys with a 45 offset with falkin 512s 205/40/16. It was my first really time running and loved it, but new i needed more if i wanted to get up front. So over the winter I put on BFG KDW tires, skunk2 sleave coilovers on skunk2 sport struts. Skunk2 upper control arms, skunk2 rear camber kit. Earls braided flex lines. with DOT 4 fluid. hawk hps front pads, chaged to a ZC maifold. 4-2-1. front upper and rear upper strut braces. car still has rear drums, stock motor and trans, even the stock muffler.lol. and i also pick up 13X8 rota RB wheels with a +6 offset. and 205/60/13 RA-1 tires. with lots of life in them. and i just bought lesno 13X7.5 race rims with some 3 year old hoosier. Anyway, any ideas on what i should work with next? i drive it in the summer to work 100KMS there and back. So i can't go crazy, but as of right now i dont have interior.lol. any help would be great.

Seat time, then more seat time, then seat time after that will provide you with the most improvement. Much more than ANY modification to the car. Have experienced people ride with you to give you pointers. Unless you're stuck with that motor for some class, don't do much to it, because the CX motor and trans suck. If you are stuck in some low Stock class...well, deal with that later.
Other than that, for living in Nova Scotia, that is a fantastic place

Doesn't matter much here, small fields, under 30 cars, strong classes are filled with Miatas, CSS, CSP.
I can't remember what class Joel is in, FSP?
I have run a couple events with him, he is getting fairly quick.
I agree with others here, just do more events, your car isn't bad right now, just keep focus on driving, learning in that car as it is will be good for you.

Canadian rules are different, and to someone used to SCCA solo rules, kinda strange. A better question would be, what else can you do to the car that won't bump you to a faster class?
