i got some money to buy stuff right now. i'm trying to decide on either a jdm 4-1 or a apexi ws exhaust. gotta 01 gsr. help out. or any suggestion on what to get. got 400 to use.

 

what about an apex N1. AEM cai.

 

i got a aem already. i was thinkin bout rims. you think i should just keep the stock gsr blades? save some cash and just go performance?

 

headers, exhaust will only give you 2-3hp

 

$400.....save just a tiny bit more and throw in some nice cams.

 

**** dat. Save another hundred bucks and get yourself a Direct Port nitrous kit.

 

Definitely go with a JDM Header unless you plan on going Turbo in the future. The exhaust like someone said will do little gains. But I would recommend going with a JDM Header, then a nice flowing exhaust. From there you'll be quicker than average and then go with either Cams or rims if that's what you want. But ultimately, what everyone here says shouldn't matter, do what makes you happy.

 

Lol, go with your Exhaust first, don't get the JDM 4:1 till your prepared to get a custom fitment, ie. Caround Cat., Test Pipe. The JDM 4:1 won't fit stock GSR catalytic converters and exhaust. Go with the Apexi, and do a header and Cat package later on. The exhaust looks and sounds good, the JDM header won't considering it will be laying on the ground and not installed in your car without a a couple hundred more. Just my $.02.

 

how about spending your $400 on tires or suspension.. or do you have those done already? are you still rolling on the stock Michelins? those are horrible (IMO)... i would get new tires..

 

I would do both at the same time save you alot of time on installation. but if can only get one i would say catback

 

i'm gonna switch over my suspension set up from my old civic to my teg. i have some groundcontrols with agx's. and some kuhmo 712 on some 97 web rims i'm gonna switch the tires over. i thought that the jdm 4-1 was a bolt on for the gsr? doesn't dc make one for the gsr? or is it just for the itr and only fit after it has been modded to fit?

 

nope not a direct fit -- u need a fitted cat or test pipe

id do an exhaust

 

suspension first if not done already...then exhaust
