Default Should i do more or sell?

I have a '93 civic dx coupe with 109000 miles it is an automatic. I have over $8,000 invested. Mostly show. eibach springs, arospeed front mount intake,aem pullies and cam gear,2.5" piping with ractive exhaust, $1500 SI blue paint,$2000 stereo, 17" Axis Neo rims, projectors ,tyc tailights and recently installed Blue-Tenzo R rally styled seats with 4 point Sparco harness
Is there anything I can do to make it faster without pouring tons more $ into it.
Or Any offers??? am willing to sell w/o the rims or/and the stereo!!!

Auto civic is going to be tough to make fast without spending a bunch of money. Especially in a show car. Either a swap or an auto-manual swap and then a turbo on the D series are about the only ways to make it quick easily, and neither are cheap.

Good luck trying to get what you put into that car back when you sell it. Unless you kept all the receipts or something, most people will laugh in your face.

Especially with Tenzo R seats, I would never ride in a car with those.

Sell.......show stuff just adds weigh IMO. Auto's tend to start having tranny probs whien you start trying to race. There was a Guy with a turbo LS auto it ran good but he had tranny prob after another.

Danm!!.. You should of wait and do alot of research before spending that $8,000 to your civic!! seriously if you are going to sell your civic right now, I dont think you can get that $8,000 back!! You'll get more if you sell all the aftermarket parts and put all your stock parts back on the car and sell it!!
But..You have spend so much on that car already so..I say keep it and make it go faster!! get a turbo kit or swap to any DOHC Vtec motor and covert to manual. but its your car so do what you like!!
