yeaaaa its slow

I have a 99 ex coupe, white, and its an auto (yeah I know)

Im going to get something else soon but not too soon, as in another car. The auto wasnt my choice.

I just graduated and I have some money (about 150) and my parents said that they would buy me something as a gift. I dont really have a lot of interests besides my car and video games.

Instead of wasting my money on an intake or a header, seeing how that wont do anything but make me think why I asked for it in the first place, id like to hear some suggestions.

I know that im going to hear, new car, tranny swap, motor swap. The car is under my parents name, and as soon as they put it under my name, is when I plan on trading it for something else. So I will be getting something soon but not too soon.

So does anyone have any ideas on what I could get? Like things for the car, I have had suggestions by my friends to get a cd player and some speakers, but I hate loud bass shaking the trunk and all that.

Ive thought about something that I could get that isnt car realted and I cant really think of anything. And I really like the civic (even though its auto)

Thanks in advance

My thoughts exactly.

well if you are going to get rid of it when it goes in your name, either just hold on to the money and spend it when you get the other car, or get something like xm radio that you can switch to other cars.

They wont, I asked them already.

My dad told me if I was going to do anything major to the car, ie.(sell it, swap it) etc., that I would have to wait until it was in my name.

He wont put it in my name because I dont have a job at the moment, So im looking for suggestions on things I could do in the meantime.

I was looking at the tein basic damper kit, the entry level coilover system.
But its 713, thats the cheapest I saw it. Id lower the car, but 713 is a lot.

Then I thought of rims, something along the lines of rotas, or some knockoff's.
I really like the advan rg's, but wont ever be able to afford them.

edit- I really like perfromance mods, I listen to the radio in the car, but not enough to buy an xm radio, I have a 92 si prelude with an h22 and some mods, but my dad is driving it for a bit (he sold his truck and he is about to buy a 350z) and once I get back the prelude I plan on selling it, saving that money, then eventually getting rid of the civic and buying a svt cobra that I have been seeing for a while.

but in the mean time id like to do something to the civic, but seeing how its an auto, my options are limited, I called the aamco by my house and the quoted me 1600 to change from auto to a manual.

Put the money in the bank (or invest it) until you sell the car...that way your money that you have now will be more when you need it and you wont even have to work for more money!

We think alike.

Maybe buy some new, good-sounding, quality, speakers or a stereo but just don't get woofers and everything will sound good

hmmm...im just like you with my radio, as long as it works right?

why not just hold off on getting something for your car since its not in your name yet. get some video games that'll hold u off until you can get a new car and go crazy with that. what video game systems do u have?

yeaaaa its slow

prett much well all of them.

xbox, ps2, gamecube, dreamcast, n64, and so on.

I will probably hold off like everyone is saying, I really wanted to do something to it. That cobra I want is 14,995, so I need the money

Ok you have an EK and an H22... u can just do the whole swap and sell the shell...jesus its almost free.

yeaaaa its slow

Since when was a 99 ex coupe an EK?

Yes I have an h22 in the prelude, but if I put that into the civic which = $$$, what would go into the prelude?
