Multi question regarding engine/ tranny and upgrades....
bare with me... I have a 2000 civic coupe EX. everything is stock now with my civic Should I do suspension, lips n rims or do head/tail/fog lights, New tint and SI grill... Which should I focus on first? I know my car isnt fast nor am I gonna rice it out ( JUST SAY NO TO RICE... Unless its sticky 8) ) I just want her to look clean... Honestly the vid reflects pretty closely to what I want the end product of my EK to look like. And on to the engine/tranny whats the best way to go, reman or rebuild? my tranny takes a few seconds to engage 3rd frequently... any input is good input thnx

Re: Multi question regarding engine/ tranny and upgrades....
For engine and tranny, I would def. go with used JDM parts from an importer. The used Jap. castoffs are 100% better than anything you'll get here short of a complete engine build. I've purchased two transmissions and an engine this way with no regrets whatsoever. And the price is usually better, too.
