Hey guys i have a Automatic 93 Civic 2 door coupe and everything is stock right now(not an auto by preference). What i am wondering is what would be the cheapest, best thing to do for some added power and speed. I dont need a whole lot, i just want enough so all my friends dont totally kick my a** when we race and stuff...or is it even worth putting money into makin it faster?????????????????

Plan B

If you can get about $1000 together, you can get a manual swap done on your car, until then, there are no bolt-ons that can help you.

I'm actually assisting on a b16 automatic swap right now and let me tell you it is going to be a wiring nightmare once it's complete. The guys car has been disassembled for 4 months while he is trying to get together everything possible to increase the power of the engine N/A. Eagle Rods, JE pistons, full ferrea valves, springs, retainers, guides, etc, ctr cams, unorthodox pulleys, essentially, it's gonna be a 10,000 rpm engine with an automatix tranny on it.

Anyway, after you consider all the machine work, parts, labor(believe me, he's getting a great deal on this) I think it's gonna come out to around $8000.

Basically, be a man, get a stick.

I agree with the manual swap. After you get that done the possibilities are endless!
