DANGIT! I hate school computers, I cant see pics

On a side note, I got my car back this morning, just in time for school.
Long story but, The people I bought my motor from over tourqed the bolts that connect my VC to my head, and when I went to take off my VC so I could paint it, the "studs"(is that the word?) broke so you couldnt bolt the bolts in or w/e(its too damn early in the morning to spell correct)so my car was spitting out jizzum more than paris hilton.
After a long drive full of shifting at 2k to a buddys house my car sat for a few days where my step dad and my step brother switched my head assmebly for me while I was at work. My brother also drove my car home and picked me up this morning at 6 and took me to his house to pick up my car
First thing, I got inside and my seats were wet due to the rain and my car smelled like mildew
I went ahead, sprayed some freebreeze and took her to the gas station, put some 93 in her and took her to school.
Also, i painted one of my VC with the summit wrinkle red and polished the letters " H Vtec Honda", looks sharp
for awsome family

o, almost forgot. I need some help...During my spring break, my family and I are going to deals gap to stay in a cabin, and I want my suspension to be done by then. So im forgetting all motor work and keeping the stock d15b untouched.
What should I start off with to help improve my handling? I have skunk2 coilsovers matched with a set of shitty Tokico blues, and they bounce like set of tittis on a trampoline.
Suspension "pwns" me.
What all is needed to fit the itr front and rear swaybar on my car?

Trying to decide what new wheels to get. Either some 15x7 silver slips or some 15" black heliums (would repaint since I hate black wheels).

Dont worry about the front swaybar.. unless you have a "s" modle, beacuse the OEM "si" front swaybar is sufficient, but for an ITR rear swaybar to be put on the sol, you basically just need the actual bar, endlinks, d-brackets, with bushings, lca's to accept a rear swaybar, and of course the bounting hardware.. Also you really are gunna want to look into some sort of a subframe reinforcement, like ASR, or if you wan to take a cheaper (not as good) route, go with something like beaks...

And finally before you even need to worry too much about swaybars, look into some better "full" coilovers, or at a bare minimum some new adjustable struts, like KYB AGX's, or illuminas...

in all honesty, i don't see any need for a subframe brace in our cars. I've heard of subframe tearout maybe 3 times on an eg. the cars that seemed to be prone to tearout the most were the 96-98 eks

well i was worried since i can pull on the pedal so it seems it needs bled or something so it will pop all the way up. i bought it brand new in box off ebay so I wonder if it blows omni will replace it? the pedal push is short but i wasnt expecting that short!

Yea I suppose, but for me its cheap insurance.. Id rather spend the $200 on an ASR brace then the however much to replace an entire subframe... Plus it looks baller.. haha
