95 4dr EX - Advice For a Build
1995 Sedan EX D16z6 Automatic My goal for this car is just a nice, clean vehicle with get up and go. Looking to get as much power and performance while sticking with all motor and all the luxuries (A/C, PS etc. ) There is so much that I want to do but I just really don't know what is "important" and what is not, or where I should start or prioritize. Any helpful advice is appreciated.
I will eventually get a Civic with a manual transmission, and keep this one for winter, or maybe sell it, not sure. I will be doing the majority of the work.
The engine is completely stock, I will get more pics up as soon as I take some.
Thanks for reading.
If you have questions, just ask.
Those are when i had just gotten the car. Updated pictures coming soon.

Get a CAI or SRI for improved fuel economy. That is all. Save up and get another car for speed, unless you want to fully convert this to manual trans. I don't suggest keeping the D16Z6 if you do that either. Might as well go B series. B18C1 would be the best bang for the buck.

ya auto honda are no good for power. if you wanna a lil go getter on the fairly cheap start sourcing boost parts. you can get a good deal on parts if you buy separate. and get a 5 speed

If you want something that you can DD that has some get up and go, is a simple swap that will not kill your wallet and will still have AC and PS using all OEM parts... Do a B18C5 or JDM B18C swap with a good header like a Toda or Hytech rep, 2.5" cat back, 3 inch intake with velocity stack and filter and get a good tune. That is a 200-210whp combo. If you dont have the budget for the Type R then go with a LS Vtec or GSR swap. But if you want some power you will need to get away from the D series or do a 5 spd swap and boost the single cam. On boost you can get 200-250whp and it will be pretty fun to drive but still more to do right than a swap.
