Default Mod suggestions needed for D16Z6 Civic Si

Hi guys, I was wondering if I can get some of your advices/suggestion for my recent new member of family -- 94 Civic Si. The car is basically stock except the Neuspeed adjustable spring and Bilstein shocks. The compression reading is 170psi with no variation across the four cyclinders although it has 130k miles. I am looking to spend around $3000~$4000 into modifying it so I can enjoy it over the weekend. I am not looking to add a turbo or do a engine swap to it since I like the VTEC "music" better than the BOV "noise". Do you guys have any suggestion on what to get? Are there Trust/Greedy, RS*R, and other Japanese aftermarket parts for this kind of engine? Or should I leave it stock and just buy a set of nice rims. No, I am not going to race it. It is just a dream car that I had when I was still in high school.

with that amount, you should get a swap. If you intend to keep the D16, go for suspension, basic I/H/E and bolt ons. Your car, your money, good luck.

What brand of I/H/E should I get? I like the Trust performance parts. Do you know price range for its I/H/E if any? Are those parts made specifically for D16Z6? Thanks again for your valuable input!!
